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 Skapion?:
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.

We are looking for an experienced Data Infrastructure Team Lead to lead our Data Infrastructure team. In this role, you will have formal people-management responsibility for a multidisciplinary team that builds, productionizes, and improves big data and analytics infrastructure. You will be responsible for team delivery, combining technical depth, agile leadership, and an AI-first mindset to help the team build reliable systems, improve how it works, and continuously raise its engineering standards.
