  • Drive software requirements and specifications with cyber and safety considerations.
  • Own and maintain the software roadmap with detailed milestones aligned to program deliverables.
  • Author technical documents, white papers, and reports for customer requests and trade studies.
  • Present technical trade studies and system performance to customers and stakeholders.

Education

  • 16 weeks paid caregiver & wellness leave
  • Family planning and parenting support (fertility, adoption, gestational carrier)
  • 24/7 mental health resources and work-life services (legal/financial support)
