Embedded Software Engineer

Job description

Job responsibilities

• Extend the avionics, autonomy, and ground control software for a large uncrewed aircraft, adding capability to a system that already runs
• Design, integrate, and support embedded systems in real-time and non-real-time environments, on the ground and in the air
• Bring up new sensors, payloads, and networking capabilities on existing avionics, and make them coexist with everything already on the vehicle
• Build out our SIL and HIL test architecture so every new function is verified before it touches an aircraft
• Develop simulation models and verify software components
• Own your software all the way through: hardware bring-up, integration, test, and the fault you end up chasing down on the actual vehicle

Job requirements

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
• 3+ years of experience in embedded systems development, preferably in the aerospace industry.
• Proficiency in C/C++ programming languages, with experience in assembly language being a plus.
• Strong understanding of microcontroller and microprocessor architectures.
• Experience with RTOS, such as FreeRTOS, VxWorks, or similar.
• Familiarity with hardware design and development tools, such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and JTAG debuggers.
• Knowledge of aerospace standards and protocols, such as DO-178C, ARINC, and MIL-STD.
• Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently and as part of a team.
