About the role
York is seeking talented, cross-domain software engineers to join a small, empowered strategic development team focused on rapid prototyping and advanced development across York’s software portfolio. This is a role for engineers who don't want to be boxed into a single layer. In a given quarter you might write real-time embedded code, build a full stack tool to visualize its output, and stand up an autonomy or ML component that ties them together, and then push it to simulation and ultimately space. We care about range, judgment, and the ability to reach a working demonstration more than years on any one stack. You'll own problems end to end, help pick the right tools, and hand mature prototypes off to the programs that will fly it.
What you'll bring
- BS in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Aerospace Engineering or a related field
- 3+ years in software engineering or software related application
- Proven track record developing and delivering aerospace software, and taking prototypes through to production
- Cross-domain range: depth in at least one of embedded/real-time, full stack, or autonomy/ML — and the ability and appetite to work across the others
- Proficiency with C/C++, Python, C#, and Linux
- A bias toward working software and demonstrations over process
- comfort with ambiguity and self-direction
- Fast learner who picks up unfamiliar stacks, domains, and problem spaces quickly
- Active Secret clearance, or eligibility and willingness to obtain one
- Willingness to work full-time in our Laurel, MD office
- this position does not support remote or hybrid work
- In compliance with local law, we are disclosing the compensation, or a range thereof, for roles in locations where legally required.
