Job Description

A Junior Software Engineer role in Grand Rapids, MI is currently available at Belcan. In this role, you will support platform software development for advanced propulsion and engine control systems. In this role, you will contribute to the full software development lifecycle-including requirements, design, implementation, testing, and integration-within a highly regulated aerospace environment. You will collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams, software suppliers, and stakeholders to deliver high-quality embedded software that meets rigorous safety and certification standards such as DO-178C. Key Responsibilities: * Capture, analyze, document, and review software requirements, design artifacts, source code, and test procedures. * Support the development and management of requirements, design, code, and test baselines throughout the project lifecycle. * Implement and maintain embedded software features using C and real-time operating systems such as VxWorks, LynxOS, or similar platforms. * Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including other engineering disciplines and external software suppliers. * Participate in trade studies and technical analyses to support system-level decisions. * Assist in planning activities to ensure accurate scoping of technical work. * Support the change control process, including change requests, traceability, reporting, and metric generation. * Present technical information at internal reviews, program status meetings, and engineering boards. * Support issue resolution by working with engineering teams, stakeholders, and customers. * Adhere to strict software safety, quality, and certification standards, including DO-178C. Required Qualifications: * Bachelor's degree in Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field. * Minimum 3-4 years of experience in a relevant software engineering role. * Hands-on experience with the full software development lifecycle in aerospace or a similar safety-critical industry. * Strong proficiency in C programming. * Experience developing embedded software on real-time operating systems such as VxWorks, LynxOS, or equivalent. * Strong oral and written communication skills; ability to work effectively in a global, cross-functional team environment. * U.S. Citizen (required due to handling of restricted technical data). Nice to Have/Preferred: * Familiarity with DO-178C or other safety-critical software development standards. * Experience with debugging tools, configuration management systems, and requirement-tracking applications (e.g., DOORS, Git, Jira). * Knowledge of avionics systems, propulsion systems, or engine control architectures. * Exposure to model-based development tools (e.g., Simulink). * Demonstrated leadership skills or experience supporting technical planning. * Prior collaboration with external vendors or software suppliers. We provide a competitive pay and benefits package. This position is offering a salary range of $70,000 to $90,000. Belcan considers several factors when extending an offer, including but not limited to education, experience, geographic location, and discipline.
