Requirements:
- 7+ years in software engineering, with at least 3 years in a management role.
- The ability to translate complex technical hurdles into clear project status updates for stakeholders.
- Deep expertise in SCRUM/Agile. You know how to make Agile work in environments where "breaking things" isn't an option.
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related technical field preferred.
- Must be a US Citizen.
Highly desired additional experience:
- Exposure to safety-critical development processes (DO-178C, ISO 26262).
- Experience developing systems-level software, including virtualization, OS kernels, or hypervisors for x86/ARM.
