NASA Software Engineering

NASA Software Engineering involves the design, development, testing, and maintenance of software used in spacecraft and missions. Given the critical nature of space exploration, NASA’s approach emphasizes reliability, safety, and precision. Engineers use rigorous processes to ensure that software performs correctly under extreme conditions. This includes extensive testing, documentation, and validation to minimize risks. Teams work collaboratively, often across multiple disciplines, to integrate software with hardware systems. Ultimately, the goal is to support successful missions, whether that's sending astronauts to the Moon or processing data from distant planets.
