One team. Global challenges. Infinite opportunities. At Viasat, we’re on a mission to deliver connections with the capacity to change the world. For more than 35 years, Viasat has helped shape how consumers, businesses, governments and militaries around the globe communicate. We’re looking for people who think big, act fearlessly, and create an inclusive environment that drives positive impact to join our team.


What you'll do

As an experienced software engineer utilizing test instrumentation with a broad scope for implementing Viasat’s test and measurement strategies, you will provide technical insights and skill to the product test engineering organization.  You will drive long-term improvement of the organization’s testing processes and growth in a multi-customer/multi-vendor/multi-configuration environment.

 

You will need to think long-term and lay out scalable and maintainable solutions solving issues impacting customer test systems, with effective test measurement tools. You will need a clear understanding of the Test Development Life Cycle and consistently look beyond the current solutions and may have several deliverables not tied to a particular test process and platform. You will deal with broad issues and will be expected to provide solutions along with support. You will use your knowledge of software engineering processes, measurement methodologies, and instrumentation to continually improve all aspects of Viasat's test software solutions.
