About The Position

We are Lockheed Martin Lockheed Martin is seeking a Software Engineering technical leader to architect, prototype, and lead the team to a modern implementation of software testing of the F-35 Common Reprogramming Tool (CRT) project. The F-35 CRT is used by our Reprogramming Lab customers to generate the Mission Data File (MDF) sets, which are pivotal to the execution of successful missions and overall operation of the F-35. The microservices architecture of CRT drives the need for nontraditional tools and methods to manage the additional testing complexity of the multiple independently deployable components. In addition to verification of these components, the interactions between the layers of integration code and the microservices, data stores and cache with which they are integrating, and the connections to external services must also be verified. Automated tests must provide coverage for all of these communications at the finest granularity possible. Who You Are The successful candidate will assume a technical leadership role within a Java based microservices team operating in a DevOps environment. They will define the overall architectural and implementation approach, set standards for design and coding practices, and drive the adoption of automation across the development lifecycle. By establishing clear guidelines and ensuring consistent communication, they will maintain continuity of architectural decisions and foster alignment among team members. The leader will emphasize integration, regression, and performance considerations throughout the software development process, partnering closely with senior technical leadership to ensure that deliverables meet high quality standards and support broader business objectives. This role requires deep expertise in Java, microservices, cloud native patterns, and modern DevOps tooling, as well as a proven track record of guiding cross functional software teams to successful outcomes.
