About the role

Raytheon in El Segundo, CA is seeking a Software Engineer/Technical Lead for the F-18 development team, to deliver world-class software for airborne radar. The role demands leadership, strong embedded software skills, and collaboration with multiple engineering disciplines. You will work onsite at the El Segundo campus, require US citizenship and eligibility for DoD clearance, and you will guide the team through SDLC using Agile/Waterfall practices, with exposure to APG-79 radar software.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
