Software Engineer, Deployment Systems
Nominal, New York, New York, us, 10261
About NominalNominal is a venture-backed company with offices in Los Angeles, Austin, and New York City that specializes in software and data management products for organizations that are testing and validating complex physical systems (like drones, planes, rockets, engines, satellites, nuclear reactors, etc.). We are backed by prolific and experienced venture capital firms like General Catalyst, Lux Capital, Founders Fund, XYZ, Haystack, Human Capital, BoxGroup, etc., and have raised significant venture funding with strong early traction in both commercial and defense applications.The Nominal team comes from commercial companies like SpaceX, Palantir, Anduril, Lockheed Martin, and NASA and is active amongst customers in aerospace, defense, industrial, and advanced energy applications (autonomous aviation, eVTOL/VTOL, flight testing, satellite development, etc.). We are also building and delivering solutions to the United States Air Force (USAF) who are looking to expand use cases across the broader DoD test community.Our product is a data visualization and computation platform designed to accelerate how engineering teams test and validate hardware systems. We specifically aim to shorten the data review process after running tests and help engineering organizations scale testing campaigns more efficiently and effectively to save time and lower costs. It works by combining heterogeneous data into runs and allowing users to easily build custom visualization and analysis. Users write test logic with interactive computation, and these checks can be applied to historical and future runs to compound learnings. Data sources can include telemetry, sensor data, logs, simulations, and other testing metadata like environment, vehicle, part, version, etc.About the role
Deploy & integrate : Take Nominal's tech from concept to operation on the ground, tailoring Nominal’s software platform to fit our clients' high-stakes environments perfectly. Collaborate with software engineers to design and implement the deployment of Nominal’s software to its first air-gapped on-premises environment.Take us from 1 to N : Lead the strategy to deploy Nominal on customer-owned cloud accounts, air-gapped physical data centers, hybrid environments, and other heterogeneous infrastructures.Innovate at the edge:
Innovate at the cutting edge of data infrastructure, considering high frequency, high volume, streaming data with transformation and alerting capabilities. Implement and manage infrastructure as code to ensure efficient and repeatable deployments.Manage tradeoffs.
Understand the tensions between effort vs value, short-term vs long-term growth, and any others that may arise.Solve & streamline : See an issue? You're on it, with the autonomy to fix problems fast and keep our technology ahead of the curve.We're looking for someone with
Proven engineering expertise : You've been in the trenches of software engineering, with firsthand experience developing, deploying, and monitoring infrastructure for high-scale distributed systems or complex tools. You've deployed

before and understand the problems of air-gapped environments.Technical sharpshooter : Your intellectual curiosity drives you to solve complex problems. You think in systems and see the big picture, yet you're all about nailing the details.Dynamic leader & team player : With a mix of humility, eagerness to learn, and empathy, you're a natural at leading and lifting those around you. You don't just spot problems; you solve them.Project maestro : You've got a solid track record in turning technical concepts into reality, and managing the full cycle from planning to deployment.Ready to roll : Frequently traveling to spend time with end-users on-site (e.g. rocket test stands, spacecraft clean rooms, automated manufacturing facilities).Must be eligible to obtain and maintain a U.S. TS ClearanceSkills that supercharge us
