True Anomaly seeks to build innovative technology that solves the next generation of engineering, manufacturing, and operational challenges for space security and sustainability
Requirements
Fluent across the stack — from C/C++, React and real-time operating systems to DevOps pipelines, system integration, and front-end/back-end platforms
Experience delivering mission-critical software in aerospace, defense, automotive, or similarly regulated industries
Experience fielding flight software or autonomy systems in space or aerospace platforms
Familiarity with AI/ML operations, sensor fusion, and ground system architectures
Track record scaling products from prototype to deployment across multiple customer platforms
Executive experience managing software across multiple product baselines
Experience with embedded software and systems engineering
Responsibilities
Lead the full software enterprise — from flight code and autonomy frameworks to mission systems, DevSecOps, ground software, simulation infrastructure, and AI/ML-enabled applications
Own the architecture and product roadmap — set the technical vision, drive modular and resilient designs, and align execution with strategic capability growth
Build and scale a world-class organization — recruit top talent, develop the next generation of technical leaders, and set a culture of excellence, accountability, and delivery
Drive the development lifecycle — enforce standards for CI/CD, validation, configuration control, certification, and simulation fidelity, ensuring speed without sacrificing rigor
Partner across functions — work shoulder-to-shoulder with peers in Hardware, Production, Test, and Mission Operations to deliver integrated systems at operational tempo
Champion compliance and trust — meet and exceed RMF, and other defense software requirements while enabling innovation under constraint
Shape the future of mission software — balance near-term program execution with long-term architectural bets that deliver decisive advantage
Other
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering or related field
15+ years of experience in embedded software and systems engineering, with at least 5 years in executive or senior leadership roles
Excellent communication skills, emotional intelligence and a passion for leadership
The ability to obtain and maintain a TS/SCI clearance
U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident of the U.S., protected individual as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3), or eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State
