Say HI* to our Senior Software Engineer role
Thales designs state-of-the-art radar systems and optical sensors that are part of a complete and integrated defense system. The product portfolio ranges from small portable radars for border or asset monitoring to complex four-dimensional radars capable of detecting small objects at distances of hundreds to thousands of kilometers.
