Sr Staff Software Engineer

$130k - $200k
Full-time

GE Renewable Energy Power and Aviation

Job Description Summary

Have you ever wondered what makes today's most advanced aviation systems so capable? Some people point to the sensors, networks, or processors. On this team we believe it is the software and control logic that integrate these elements into a cohesive, dependable system - one that responds predictably to pilot and mission needs while maintaining safety, security, and performance across the fleet.

In this role, you will serve as a Sr Staff Software Engineer helping to define, architect, and develop complex software solutions for next-generation aerospace applications. You will work across embedded platforms, cloud-connected systems, and model-based design environments to deliver robust, certifiable, and maintainable software that underpins critical aviation capabilities.

If you have a passion for building high-assurance software systems, collaborating across disciplines, and advancing the state of the art in aerospace software engineering, I'd encourage you to learn more about the impactful work this team is delivering.

Job Description

Roles and Responsibilities
  • Identify, architect, develop, evaluate, and manage software solutions for complex aerospace systems, with emphasis on safety-critical and mission-critical applications.
  • Apply software engineering best practices, control theory concepts (where applicable), and mathematical modeling to design and implement software with predictable, verifiable behavior.
  • Lead technical design for key features and subsystems, including requirements definition, software architecture, interface design, and integration strategies across embedded and off-board systems.
  • Drive the use of modern software development practices, including automated testing, continuous integration, code review, static analysis, and configuration management.
  • Broadly deepen and extend technical expertise in relevant software technologies (e.g., real-time embedded systems, model-based development, distributed computing, data processing, or cybersecurity).
  • Demonstrate a strong understanding of key business drivers and program objectives; use this understanding to shape technical solutions and tradeoffs that align with program cost, schedule, and quality goals.
  • Collaborate effectively with systems engineering, controls, hardware, and program leadership to ensure the software architecture integrates correctly with the overall system design.
  • Provide technical leadership and mentoring for less experienced engineers, helping them grow software engineering, design, and verification skills.
  • Support customer, certification, and internal reviews by clearly explaining technical concepts, design rationales, and verification evidence.
  • Assure proper documentation of technical data generated for assigned projects and tasks, consistent with engineering policies, procedures, and applicable regulatory or certification requirements.
  • Participate as a key presenter or reviewer in technical, design, and program reviews; lead closure of significant technical actions.

Required Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related STEM field from an accredited university or college.
  • 10 years of professional experience in software engineering for complex systems
  • This role requires the successful candidate to obtain and maintain US Government Security Clearance; prerequisite for a security clearance is U.S. citizenship.

Desired Characteristics
  • Strong oral and written communication skills, with the ability to clearly explain complex software and system concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Proven experience in architecting and delivering software for real-time embedded systems, distributed systems, or cloud-connected aviation applications.
  • Familiarity with model-based development environments (for example MATLAB/Simulink, SCADE, or similar) and integration of auto-generated code into embedded platforms.
  • Experience applying or supporting relevant aerospace or safety standards (for example DO-178C, ARP4754A, ISO 26262, or equivalent high-assurance software standards).
  • Demonstrated ability to work collaboratively in a structured team environment, partnering with systems, controls, hardware, and test engineering.
  • Passion for developing robust and maintainable software, including practices such as automated testing, continuous integration, code quality metrics, and secure coding.
  • Experience coaching and mentoring less experienced software engineers, including code reviews, design reviews, and technical guidance.
  • Familiarity with data pipelines, analytics, or cloud-native services as part of a broader aviation ecosystem is a plus.
  • Intrigued to work on challenging problems and projects that may not be broadly discussed outside the team, and comfortable operating in a fast-paced, evolving technical environment.
  • Experience with designing, implementing, and testing production-quality software solutions, and
  • Working in safety-critical, mission-critical, or real-time system environments (e.g., aerospace, defense, automotive, industrial).
  • Demonstrated experience leading technical solutions across the full software development life cycle (requirements, design, implementation, integration, verification, and support).
  • Proficiency in one or more relevant programming languages (for example C/C++, Python, or similar) and associated development ecosystems.

The base pay range for this position is 130,000.00 - 200,000 USD Annual . The specific pay offered may be influenced by a variety of factors, including the candidate's experience, education, and skill set. This position is also eligible for an annual discretionary bonus based on a percentage of your base salary/ commission based on the plan. This posting is expected to close on September 14th, 2026.
