Job Summary:
Teledyne FLIR is looking for a career Software Engineer to join our Surveillance team who has experience leading complex projects independently from inception to completion. This team, along with a sibling location in Victoria, BC, delivers military-grade software and hardware solutions for defense and border security applications. As customer demand continues to grow, we are seeking a strong software professional to help develop the next generation of mission-critical solutions.

The ideal candidate will have 10-15+ years of experience shipping production software and will enjoy solving challenging technical problems while collaborating effectively with teammates and stakeholders.
Experience with client-server and distributed architectures, front-end UI, middle-tier systems, and multithreaded applications is highly desirable.
