Description

Software Engineer — AI-Enabled Product Modernization

Level: P3 (Software Engineer)

Jeppesen ForeFlight is seeking a Software Engineer to help deliver critical aviation-product modernization initiatives. You will join a small, cross-functional product team and contribute across the delivery lifecycle—from understanding the problem and designing solutions through implementation, integration, testing, deployment, and operational stabilization—typically owning well-scoped features and components with guidance from senior engineers on ambiguous or cross-cutting work.

The ideal candidate pairs solid software-engineering fundamentals with growing technical judgment and hands-on production experience, and is comfortable working within complex existing systems. You should be effective with AI-assisted development: able to frame bounded tasks clearly for coding agents, supply the context and constraints they need, evaluate what they produce with a critical eye, and remain personally accountable for the quality and reliability of your work.

Responsibilities

• Design, build, test, deploy, and help operate software supporting aviation products and modernization initiatives, primarily at the feature and component level.
• Turn defined product requirements into clear technical designs, interfaces, acceptance criteria, and well-scoped units of work, escalating ambiguity and tradeoffs early.
• Use coding agents and other AI-assisted development tools throughout the lifecycle—codebase exploration, implementation, refactoring, debugging, testing, and review.
• Break work into bounded tasks with enough context and constraints that both you and coding agents can execute them reliably, and integrate the results coherently.
• Critically evaluate AI-generated solutions for correctness, security, maintainability, performance, and fit with existing systems rather than accepting output as authoritative.
• Establish appropriate verification for your changes using automated testing, static analysis, security tooling, observability, and peer review.
• Integrate new capabilities with existing systems, workflows, and aviation data formats while being mindful of compatibility and migration risk.
• Identify technical risks and dependencies in your area and communicate them clearly to your team.
• Participate actively in code review, production support, and the continuous improvement of the team's engineering and AI-assisted development practices.

Basic Qualifications:

• Solid software-engineering skills in Python or another general-purpose programming language.
• Experience contributing to the development and operation of production software.
• Hands-on experience using coding agents or comparable AI-assisted development tools to make meaningful changes in real software systems.
• Ability to break defined work into clear, bounded tasks with sufficient context, constraints, and acceptance criteria for both people and AI agents.
• Ability to review and improve AI-generated designs and implementations rather than treating generated output as authoritative.
• Working knowledge of testing, CI/CD, observability, security, source control, maintainability, and production operations.
• Some experience working in cloud environments and integrating with existing systems.
• Sound problem-solving ability and clear written and verbal communication.
• Typically 3+ years of professional software-engineering experience, or equivalent demonstrated ability.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Exposure to agentic software-development workflows, repository instructions, automated verification, or developer tooling.
• Experience using coding agents for refactors, migrations, or other multi-file changes.
• Experience working in or integrating with complex legacy production systems.
• Experience delivering across more than one layer of a software system (e.g., backend and frontend, or service and data layer).
• Exposure to regulated, safety-critical, or high-reliability environments.
• Aviation-domain interest or experience, particularly as a pilot, dispatcher, or developer of aviation software.
