Principal Software Architect

Principal Edge Software Architect (GPU / CUDA / C++ / Kubernetes)

We’re partnering with a cutting‑edge defense and space technology organization building next‑generation systems across ISR, space, and national security programs. This is a high‑impact role where you’ll define how GPU-accelerated software systems are architected, optimized, and deployed at the edge .

You’ll sit at the center of GPU architecture, edge computing, and high‑performance systems , driving how workloads are distributed across CPUs, GPUs, and FPGAs in mission‑critical environments.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Architect high-performance, GPU-accelerated software systems using C++ and CUDA
• Design scalable, modular systems leveraging Kubernetes and containerized environments
• Optimize parallel processing workloads across heterogeneous compute (CPU/GPU/FPGA)
• Define latency, throughput, and SWaP constraints for edge deployments
• Lead technical direction for real‑time signal processing and edge AI systems
• Mentor engineers on GPGPU best practices and performance optimization
• Work closely with customers and stakeholders on next‑gen ISR and edge platforms

What We’re Looking For

• Strong experience in GPU architecture and CUDA development
• Deep expertise in C++ and performance‑critical systems
• Experience building or architecting systems using Kubernetes / containerized infrastructure
• Background in parallel computing, HPC, or distributed systems
• Experience working with heterogeneous compute environments (CPU/GPU/FPGA)
• Ability to operate as a hands‑on technical leader / architect

Bonus if you have:

• Experience in defense, ISR, or embedded/edge systems
• Exposure to NVIDIA ecosystems (Jetson, Holoscan, etc.)
• Understanding of signal processing, RF, or real‑time systems
• U.S. Citizenship required (clearance eligibility needed)
• Hybrid role with 2–3 days onsite

Why This Role?

• Work on real‑world, mission‑critical systems , not just theoretical problems
• Own architecture decisions that directly impact next‑generation defense and space technologies
• Join a fast‑growing, engineering‑led environment where your work actually ships
