Embedded Software Engineer

The Embedded Software Engineer will work closely with a small multidisciplinary team to define software architectures and requirements based on high-level system objectives. The role is responsible for the design, implementation, integration, and testing of real-time software used to control hardware systems.

This position requires hands-on experience developing software for physical control systems operating in deterministic, real-time environments. The engineer will contribute throughout the software development lifecycle, including architecture, implementation, integration, debugging, and validation., * Bachelor's degree with 2–5 years of relevant experience, or a Master's degree with at least 2 years of relevant experience.

• Experience architecting, benchmarking, designing, and programming software for physical control systems using C or C++.
• Experience developing software in hard real-time environments, including interrupt-driven, task-based, and multi-threaded systems.
• Experience working with real-time operating systems (RTOS) such as Real-Time Linux, VxWorks, Xenomai, or similar platforms.
• Experience developing software in Linux environments.
• Experience integrating and testing software and hardware systems in a laboratory setting.
• Experience using Python or MATLAB for test automation, electronic testing, and data analysis.
• Strong interpersonal, communication, and collaboration skills.
• Ability to work effectively in a team-oriented environment.

Preferred Qualifications

• Firmware development experience using VHDL or Verilog.
• Digital design and schematic capture experience.
• Analog or power electronics design experience.
• Familiarity with laboratory instrumentation, including:

• Oscilloscopes
• Function generators
• Digital multimeters
• Logic analyzers
• Frequency counters

• Experience with revision control systems such as Git.
• Experience developing low-level hardware drivers.
• Experience using debugging tools such as GDB, LLDB, or similar debuggers.
• Knowledge of communication and hardware protocols, including:

• UDP
• TCP/IP
• UART
• SPI
• I2C
• USB
• PCIe
• MIPI, * Candidates must be eligible to obtain and maintain a security clearance. An active Secret or Top Secret clearance is highly desirable.

• Candidates should be willing and able to obtain a higher-level clearance if required by the program.
• The interview process typically includes an initial virtual interview followed by a second-round interview. For local candidates, the second interview may be conducted onsite; remote interviews may be accommodated for relocation candidates.
