E1073:
Software Engineer Sr

The Skunk Works (Lockheed Martin Advanced Development Programs) is looking for world‑class talent in Software Engineering to be a part of a team that will carry on our 75‑year tradition‑making history in advanced aircraft development. The vehicle management software team is looking for an experienced software engineer with experience in FPGA development and software integration to contribute to new development designed to fly both our current platforms and the aircraft of the future.

In this highly impactful role as a Software Engineer, your responsibilities will span the technology development lifecycle, from software/system definition and design, through implementation and flight test. Your experience in C/C++ software for embedded systems and FPGA cores will benefit you as you assist in maintaining and developing custom FPGAs and software applications for embedded systems implementations. With your background in test software and python development, you may be sought after for ingenious solutions to complex problems while also guiding and mentoring junior engineers.

Beyond that, you may also find yourself:

• Utilizing System Verilog, Verilog, or VHDL
• Involved in all phases of software development
• Participating in Advanced Development Program research and development

The responsibilities for this role will include:

• FPGA prototyping skills using modern Electronic Design Automation tools. Will require knowledge of Circuit Card development, System Verilog, Serial Interface (UART), prototyping and in place debug and performance analysis.
• Develop, debug, and integrate processor subsystem features and interfaces in FPGA hardware for Advanced Processors.
• Full software development lifecycle, interfaces including requirements generation, design, implementation, and integration and flight test.
• The engineer will have the opportunity to work on and collaborate with cross‑functional teams with other engineering disciplines.
• Integration activities which may include a multitude of host systems, such as live assets of varying capability and structure simulated systems, and laboratory environments that include constructive simulations, physical hardware, and system simulations.
• Perform other duties as assigned.

• Demonstrated experience with Xilinx FPGAs and Vivado
• Experience with Xilinx/AMD and Microsemi/Microchip part families internal FPGA fabric and IP.
• Board layout tools (e.g. KiCAD, Eagle, Altium)
• Development of real‑time systems or use of real‑time operating systems (RTOS)
• Experience using TCL scripting
• Experience using Python scripting
• Modern Agile Software Development Processes and tools (e.g. git, Jira, Version One, Confluence, Git Lab)
• Yocto/Petalinux experience including writing linux drivers
• Requirements generation and system interface development
• System test and integration experience
