Mentor engineering teams on best practices for performance optimization and modular design.
Represent MAK at standards bodies like SISO through the development of IEEE networking protocols like HLA (IEEE-1516) and DIS (IEEE-1278)
Provide technical direction, conduct design/code reviews, and guide teams through complex problem-solving.
Innovation & Strategy:
Evaluate emerging technologies in AR/VR, simulation frameworks, and AI-driven modeling.
Contribute to long-term product strategy for immersive and mission-critical systems.

Qualifications

Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or related field.
Experience:
10+ years in software engineering, with significant experience in networking and real-time systems.
Proven track record in defense/aerospace projects and distributed simulation environments.

Strong proficiency in C++.
Knowledge of network protocols for simulation (DIS/HLA) and sensor integration.
Soft Skills:
Proven experience leading engineering teams, setting technical direction, and influencing organizational strategy.
Ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams and external partners.
