Principal Software Engineer

Acts as software architect for one or more projects, working closely with other senior members of the software team translating software requirements into robust, adaptable software designs.

Generates software architecture documentation and reviews/approves detailed design produced by junior members of the team.

Team leading or managing subcontractors.

Works with the various engineering disciplines to translate design requirements into well-formed software requirements using software tools for requirements management.

Conceptualizes complete solutions. Creates or coordinates the design solutions for novel or complex problems; works with verification and validation to ensure conformance to established design development processes and procedures.

Works with programme managers to help create project schedules. Leads and facilitates architectural and design decisions to ensure on-time delivery of projects. Escalates technical issues in a timely fashion to software systems manager.

Interacts closely with the software development team either on-site or remote and maximizes resource use in conjunction with SCRUM master.

Provides mentoring in software development to other members of team; monitors the improvement of other software engineer(s), e.g. delegates challenging tasks to others to help them develop; provides constructive and timely feedback.

Explores multiple alternatives. Structures studies and integrates cross-disciplinary (Software, Electrical, Mechanical) and cross-functional issues to arrive at a solution, e.g., investigates process to meet increasing regulatory requirements while maintaining serviceability & manufacturability.

A Bachelor Degree in engineering, science, or closely related discipline is desired, or equivalent technical experience plus demonstrated competence, with a desired 8+ years of significant engineering and/or operational experience. Additional postgraduate education may contribute towards the desired years of experience.
