Job description

We are looking for passionate developers to join us in building and maintaining mission-critical software for military aircraft that is used internationally both inflight and on the ground.

Flight software consists of programs running on avionics embedded computer systems that support inflight operations during missions, referred to as Operational Flight Programs (OFP). OFPs interface with onboard aircraft systems and subsystems to provide capabilities and support to pilots.
Ground software consists of high-level application software for supporting pre- and postflight operations on the ground, such as mission planning and debriefing, referred to as Mission Support Tools (MSTs). MSTs are responsible for configuring OFPs prior to flight, and for delivering debriefing capabilities after flight, to provide pilots and ground crew insight into events that occurred inflight.

You will be working primarily with either Flight or Ground software. We encourage diversity and knowledge sharing, and it is possible to work with both Flight and Ground software, should you have the will and desire.

You will take part in the creation of requirements, the development and testing of Flight OFP and/or Ground MST.
The department is part of the SPS organization which consists of approximately 60 engineers across Denmark and the US working within systems, hardware, electronics, automated test equipment, and mechanical engineering disciplines.

How to succeed in this position?
Minimum qualifications:

• You hold a relevant degree in computer science or engineering.
• You have a desire to work with software architecture, design, and business logic.
• You speak and understand English (all documentation is in English).

The ideal candidate:

• You have a few years of professional work experience, and/or holds a relevant master’s degree in computer science or engineering.
• Experience with design patterns and understanding of S.O.L.I.D principles.
• Experience with task management and knowledge sharing tools like Jira and Confluence.
• Experience with the continuous integration tools Git, Gerrit (for review) and Jenkins (CI).
• Understanding of agile development.

The two most important personal characteristics are, first and foremost, the ability to function well in context of teamwork. Building mission-critical software involves working within teams and with stakeholders that are multidisciplinary; effective communication, collaboration and teamwork skills are crucial for coordinating efforts, exchanging information, and ensuring successful project execution. Next, the attention to detail is highly valued; building software for mission-critical use requires a meticulous approach and a strong focus on detail, precision, and accuracy to ensure that the software functions reliably and meets the strict requirements and specifications.

We have fun at work with an informal and relaxed working environment although at the same time we are aware of the crucial nature of the solutions that we are a part of – and we’d love to have you on board!
