Software Verification Engineer

Software Verification Engineer

Engineers are the reason we exist—they're the core of who we are. Embark on a journey with EXB Solutions at the forefront of technological innovation as we seek talented Engineers to shape the future of cutting-edge projects and contribute to a culture of excellence and creativity. What we do matters.

Quest Defense Systems & Solutions is seeking Software V&V Engineers with experience in safety-critical embedded systems to support advanced aerospace and defense programs.

You'll be verifying and validating software running on RTOS-based, multicore SoC architectures, ensuring compliance with DO-178C and alignment to system-level requirements. This includes hands-on work across integration, system test, and software verification (HLR/LLR) in complex hardware/software environments.

This role is ideal for engineers who understand the added complexity multicore introduces in certification, including timing, determinism, and partitioning concerns.

Location:

Remote (Strong preference for hybrid/onsite in Endicott, NY) Due to the nature of this work, all applicants must be U.S. Citizens.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in software engineering or a related engineering discipline
• 2+ years of relevant Software Engineering experience in avionics or electronic controls embedded development in a safety or mission-critical environment (ie: aerospace, military).
• Experience developing or developing on top of an RTOS (real-time operating system), as well as familiarity with RTOS concepts.
• Experience with developing software to DO-178C standards.
• Experience with C, Python.
• Experience with Integration and Test at both system levels (HW/SW integration) as well as software test (HLR/LLR).

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with Asymmetric Multiprocessing
• Experience with debug concepts on complex multi-core SoC.
• Master's degree in software engineering or a related engineering discipline.
• Experience with ARM processors, associated System on Chip features, and ARM toolsets like ARM Dev Studio IDE and ARM DStream Probe.
• Experience developing device drivers/board support packages.
• Familiar with data transfer protocols (ARINC 615A, ARINC 429, MIL-STD-1553, PCIe, LIN, CAN).
• Familiar with security concepts (authentication, authorization, confidentiality).
• Familiarity with actuators and sensors like stepper/torque motors, solenoids, relays, VDT, VRT, etc.
• Experience BVA (boundary value analysis), SCA (structural coverage analysis), DCCA (data and control coupling analysis).
• Experience with DO-330 Tool Qualification.
• Good soft skills: communication, ability to perform active listening, self-manage, raise/elevate roadblocks and hiccups, communicate clearly, and take direction.
• Good general understanding of engineering principles to be able to adapt to new projects/environments and come up to speed quickly.
• Team leadership experience, including project technical leadership and/or software functional leadership.
• Experience in the adoption and/or integration of emerging technologies (e.g., generative AI, automation platforms, digital assistants) into day-to-day operations for continuous improvement.

The QDSS Advantage:

At QDSS, our advantage is purpose-driven work, collaborative teams, and complex challenges that push boundaries and build lasting impact. You'll grow your career while contributing to mission-critical programs that demand excellence and shape the future.
