URGENT: SOFTWARE PROJECT MANAGER

We are urgently seeking a Project Manager to join the software team. As a PM, you will oversee the planning and execution of many rover projects such as development of our mission control software, autonomous navigation project, image detection project, learning management project and more. We recommend this role to students with an engineering/IT background in 3rd year or later. It is NON TECHNICAL- we expect skills such as familiarity with requirements engineering and architecture and ideally experience working on a technical group project at uni, e.g. Warman Challenge, DMMS, Software Development Studio, Advanced Software Development, etc. If this doesn't match you but you still want to give it a go, please apply! We'll work with you to help you learn.
