As the Software Group Lead, you will be the primary architect and execution lead for a cutting-edge missile interceptor system. This is a high-stakes executive role requiring a rare blend of low-latency embedded engineering and high-level Command & Control (C2) orchestration. You will be responsible for building a multi-disciplinary software team from the ground up, defining the software lifecycle, and ensuring the seamless integration of missile subassemblies with ground-based mission control.
We are looking for a "builder" mentality, capable of switching between high-level architectural strategy and driving end-to-end delivery from concept to field deployment.
Why Join us?
This is a unique opportunity to be at the heart of a defense-tech startup during its most exciting growth phase!
The SW Group Lead will report directly to the CTO and act as a member of the company's leadership.
Responsibilities
Team Leadership: Recruit, mentor, and manage a high-performance team of embedded, full-stack, and GNC (Guidance, Navigation, and Control) engineers.
System Architecture: Design the end-to-end software stack, from real-time operating systems (RTOS) on the interceptor to the distributed microservices of the ground station.
Execution & Integration: Oversee the development of flight software, sensor fusion algorithms, and secure communication protocols between the interceptor and C2.
AI-Driven SDLC: Implement and champion the use of modern AI coding tools (GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code, etc.) across the entire software lifecycle to accelerate development cycles without compromising safety-critical standards.
Strategic Oversight: Align software milestones with hardware integration, testing phases (HIL/SIL), and field trials.
Key Interfaces: Works closely with Hardware Engineering leads (mechanical, electrical, GNC), Program Management, and Systems Engineering teams internally; externally interfaces with defense customers, government program offices, and key technology vendors.

Hands-on software engineering for our cutting-edge missile interceptor system. You'll develop and integrate components across the software stack, either on the Embedded / flight side (RTOS, low-latency sensor and comm code on the interceptor) or on the ground station / Command & Control side (distributed services for mission monitoring, threat evaluation, and visualization). You'll work under the Software Group Lead's architectural direction, with deep ownership of the modules you ship. We are looking for a "builder" mentality, someone who drives end-to-end delivery from concept to field deployment, and who treats AI coding tools as a force multiplier rather than a curiosity.

Responsibilities:
Build: Develop flight software, sensor fusion algorithms, and secure communication protocols between the interceptor and C2; or build distributed microservices for the ground station, depending on which area fits your background. Integrate: Work alongside Hardware Engineering (mechanical, electrical, GNC), Systems Engineering, and Program Management to integrate the software with the rest of the missile and ground station. TEST : Participate in HIL/SIL testing phases, support field trials, and write the automation that keeps these tests fast and reliable. AI-assisted delivery: Use modern AI coding tools (GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code, etc.) heavily across your daily work to ship faster without compromising safety-critical standards. Collaborate: Contribute to design reviews and architectural decisions; raise issues and propose alternatives rather than waiting for direction.
