Our people enjoy solving interesting technical challenges in a culture where everyone trusts each other to do the right thing. For you, working with us can mean deeper job satisfaction, better rewards, and a great quality of life inside and outside of work.\nJob Title:\nSr. Software EngineerReporting To:\nManagement, Design EngineeringWork Schedule:\nOnsite - Phoenix, AZMission & Impact\nAt Moog we design and manufacture innovative systems and components for commercial and government spacecraft, missiles, and launch vehicles. For future space missions, Moog is investing in next-generation orbital maneuvering vehicles, radiation-hardened avionics, propulsion test facilities, and metal additive manufacturing. Join a team that designs, develops, tests, and maintains the specialized hardware, and systems used to support and validate spacecraft avionics, or launch vehicles on the ground.\nIf you bring strong hardware and software experience to the test engineering design process and enjoy the challenge of solving complex problems, we would welcome, you to apply. See your work directly contribute to mission readiness and customer success.\nWhat You’ll Do\nLead Projects: Own the end-to-end testing strategy, planning, and execution for complex electrical systems.\n Design Test Systems: Architect custom test fixtures, test benches, or PCB-level interfaces to evaluate devices under test (DUT).\n Define Requirements and Scope Analyze the DUT (Device Under Test): Study product specifications, interfaces, and functional requirements. Identify Measurements: List all parameters, signals, and performance metrics that need testing, along with the required measurement accuracy and tolerance. Avoid over-designing accuracy relative to the product itself. Set Constraints & Budget: Establish the financial budget, development timeline, and operational footprint (e.g., rack-mount vs. benchtop).\n Design the Test Strategy and Architecture Determine Test Levels: Decide how testing breaks down into unit, integration, and system-level validation. Select Instrumentation: Choose analog and digital instruments (such as DMMs, oscilloscopes, or RF analyzers) based on bandwidth, resolution, and bus architectures like PXI, USB, or Ethernet. Plan Switching and Fixturing: Design mechanical interfaces, mass interconnect systems, or custom test fixtures to route signals safely between the DUT and your instruments.\nPlan Hardware and Software Abstraction Software Abstraction Layers: Use hardware and measurement abstraction layers so device-specific driver code is decoupled from your main test sequences.\nPerformance Measurement & Validation Collect quantified test data, log failure modes, and build documentation packages\n Schematic & Fixture Design Draft test systems or harness layouts using tools like Visio or Excel. Ability to read, interpret, and trace the technical blueprints of a printed circuit board (PCB)\n Document Metadata Title, unique ID, version, revision history, and stakeholder sign-off approvals. Teamcenter Comprehensive Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) software platform that acts as a single, centralized \"source of truth\" for managing a product's entire journey-from initial concept and design through manufacturing, service, and retirement Perforce Version control system designed to track file changes, manage source code, and handle massive binary assets at a large scale. Jira Versatile work tracking, issue-tracking, and project management tool Confluence Team workspace and knowledge management platform Theme / Problem Statement: Clearly define what is wrong or needs improvement.\nProcess Improvement: Analyze large data sets, refine test coverage, and upgrade testing methodologies or compliance workflows.\nMentor and Review: Guide junior engineers, review test plans, and perform code or design reviews.\nCross-Functional Collaboration: Work directly with design engineers, software developers, and external stakeholders to prevent systemic quality risks.\nMust-Have Qualifications (Core)\nRequires a bachelor’s degree in science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics (STEM) and minimum 5 years prior relevant experience, or an Advanced degree in a related field and minimum 3 years' experience.\nExperience in developing and integrating software applications using programming languages including but not limited to C, Perl, Python or LabView.\nExperience in utilizing integrated development environments and debugging tools to troubleshoot software implementation and ensure integrity of the software products.\nU.S. person (due to export-controlled work).\nNice-to-Have (We Will Train Where Needed)\nFamiliarity with VxWorks.\nExperience with cPCI architecture.\nExperience controlling electronic loads, DC power supplies, MUX’s, o-scopes and other measurement instruments.\nUnderstanding of conductor materials, shielding, connectors, and grounding techniques used in cable design.\nExperience with thermal chambers, vibration tables or vacuum chambers.\nGrowth & Development\nStructured onboarding with mentorship and exposure to multiple spacecraft programs.\nTargeted training on Moog-specific tools/architectures (Intercept Mozaix, EPS power switching) and advanced LabVIEW frameworks.\nClear technical progression toward lead/architect EGSE roles and mentoring responsibilities.\nCompensation & Benefits\nAnnual bonus eligibility, profit sharing, 401(k) match, open/flexible PTO, and comprehensive medical/dental/vision.\n9/80 schedule (every other Friday off) and relocation assistance available.\nRelocation and Sign-on bonus eligible\nWork Authorization & Export Control\nThis position requires access to U.S. export-controlled information.
