## About the Role

We are seeking a highly engaged mid-level Embedded Software Engineer to join our team. This role offers a fast-paced environment where you will take ownership of feature development and work with minimal supervision on critical projects. We are looking for individuals with strong technical fundamentals in low-level systems programming who are eager to learn our product deeply and play a key role in system integration. This position requires working primarily onsite with some hybrid flexibility., * Experience: 3-5 years of professional experience in embedded systems development

 * Core OS Knowledge: Solid understanding of fundamental OS concepts (kernel vs. user space, task scheduling, memory management, and synchronization primitives).
 * Programming Languages: Proficiency in Python, C and/or C++, including object-oriented principles.
 * Networking Basics: Familiarity with networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, MAC addresses, packet inspection tools).
 * Autonomy: Demonstrated ability to solve problems independently.
 * Documentation: Proven track record of learning from specification documents and adapting to new protocols or standards.

Preferred Qualifications:

 * Experience with containerized Linux user space applications.
 * Exposure to Yocto or kernel driver development (not mandatory, but beneficial).
 * Experience with space networking technologies and standards.
 * DoD Secret clearance.

## Description

* Design and develop embedded software using C/C++ within constrained environments, defining technical approaches.
 * Implement state machines and handle asynchronous events (e.g., interrupts, signals).
 * Work with operating system concepts including process scheduling, resource sharing, and synchronization.
 * Integrate networking capabilities into embedded devices (basic IP/MAC layer knowledge required).
