Support projects focused on military and naval applications, including control software for helicopter handling systems and associated vision and winch subsystems.
Participate in code reviews and apply structured coding practices to ensure reliability, maintainability, and adherence to project standards.
Communicate technical solutions and design decisions clearly to project management and the broader development team.
Collaborate closely with software developers, electrical engineers, and other technical staff to integrate embedded software with hardware and system-level designs.
Apply software engineering principles to routine development, debugging, and testing tasks, using appropriate tools and methodologies.
Use version control systems to manage source code, branches, and releases in a disciplined and traceable manner.
