We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer to lead our international software development efforts and drive the architectural separation of our codebase for export compliance (EAR). This role blends deep software engineering expertise with systems integration, technical leadership, and cross-cultural collaboration. You will own a major company initiative: enabling HavocAI to build, maintain, and deploy autonomy software across multiple countries while protecting controlled technologies. This role will lead the Commercial & International Software Integration Team, partnering closely with engineering groups in the U.S. and abroad. You will define processes, interfaces, and tooling to ensure that international builds remain clean, compliant, and scalable across multiple partner nations.
Job Responsibility:
Lead the architectural split of HavocAI’s software stack into EAR-controlled and export-cleared components
Define and enforce code boundaries, documentation standards, and compliance workflows for international development
Build the engineering processes and tooling required for safe collaboration with international teams (e.g., repo partitioning, access controls, CI/CD for multi-country builds)
Develop and maintain software interfaces that support integrations across diverse commercial and international platforms
Partner with global engineering teams to deploy and integrate autonomy software onto vessels and systems in multiple countries
Collaborate with autonomy, perception, embedded, and mission systems teams to ensure consistent functionality across U.S. and export versions of the autonomy stack
Conduct technical reviews to ensure export-cleared code meets quality, safety, and performance requirements
Serve as the primary technical lead for the commercial & international integration team, mentoring engineers and guiding technical direction
Travel internationally to support integration efforts, partner onboarding, and engineering coordination
Requirements:
Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
5+ years of software engineering experience with proficiency in C++
Familiarity with export compliance concepts (EAR/ITAR) or experience working in regulated or classified environments
Experience architecting or maintaining large, modular codebases with strict interface boundaries
Experience with ROS/ROS2, autonomy frameworks, or real-world robotic systems
Strong background with Linux, modern software tooling, and CI/CD pipelines
Excellent communication skills with the ability to coordinate across distributed, multicultural teams
Must be a U.S. Citizen and eligible to obtain a Secret Clearance
Nice to have:
Experience leading engineering teams or acting as a technical lead
Background integrating systems across multiple international engineering organizations
Experience building governance processes for access control, code segregation, or multi-tier software distribution
