• Develop software throughout the development cycle, from collecting feature requests to their final delivery via thorough testing and verification activities.

• Develop safety-critical embedded software in C/C++ or model-based safety-certifiable development tools for use on controllers running an RTOS such as QNX.

• Create software safety artifacts and required documentation to provide evidence of rigor in accordance with relevant standards.

• Ensure that software requirements are clearly defined, implemented, and traceable to system and safety requirements.

• Create and maintain comprehensive documentation for software requirements, architecture, and design decisions to ensure compliance with safety software development processes.

• Participate in safety assessments, analyses, and review of work products created by other functional groups that affect safety software features.

Essential Skills
