Software Real Time and Embedded Engineering LR08

Say HI* to our C/C++ RADAR SOFTWARE ENGINEER role

Thales designs state-of-the-art radar systems and optical sensors that are part of a fully integrated defense system. The product portfolio ranges from small portable radars used for border or object surveillance to complex four-dimensional radars capable of detecting small objects hundreds or even thousands of kilometers away.

Within the software department, the Sensor Processing group is responsible for developing software for optimal control and digital processing functions in the sensors. Multidisciplinary teams collaborate with specialists in system engineering, functional sensor design, and real-time system development and implementation.

About the Job

Within this Sensor Processing group, the entire radar software is developed. This includes various domains such as:

• Controlling radar systems

• Organizing radar transmissions

• Processing digital data streams

The ultimate goal is to detect and classify specific objects, such as aircraft and drones, track them, and display them on an operator console.

The software architecture is highly modular, supporting the development of robust and evolutionary systems. Development takes place in Agile teams, supported by a modern development pipeline. Teams themselves handle the ongoing development and maintenance of the architecture, development pipeline, and Agile processes.
