Staff Software Engineer, DevOps (R2832)

The Aircraft Software Test & Automation team is an ambitious, driven group of engineers focused on testing complex aircraft software integrated onto vehicles and various hardware systems. The team is a cross-discipline group of test engineers, software developers, integration experts, and more; working closely with our Embedded, GNC (Guidance, Navigation & Controls), and System Test teams, the Software Test & Automation team is chartered to provide (1) rigorous, but fast testing and (2) an advanced, robust development & test infrastructure for all aircraft software. Shield AI is building groundbreaking autonomous aircraft technologies, this team provides the complex testing & innovative capabilities required to get us there.

As a DevOps engineer on STA, you will design and implement engineering centric automation across the Aircraft Software department. You will represent our Aircraft Software teams and our needs, working closely with Shield AI’s Developer Experience team to implement best practices, policies, & guidelines into the continuous integration and delivery systems of all aircraft software. 

This role requires you to be very hands on and contribute to discussions with cross-functional teams across Aircraft Engineering. We embrace an attitude that focuses on solving the root cause of problems efficiently. A large part of your day to day will be in our build pipelines, build configuration management, and focusing on making changes to increase developer iteration time.  You will build the infrastructure and tools required to assure rapid development & rigorous testing, working towards the release engineering capabilities required to automatically deploy production software to entire fleet of aircraft.
