## About the Role

Do you have experience in RTOS?, As an Embedded Software Engineer III, you will lead feature development and systems integration for embedded software operating on autonomous robotic vehicles. You bring years of embedded C/C++ experience to complex vehicle control, actuator, and sensor challenges, working independently across the full development lifecycle from requirements through fielded support. Your depth in real-time systems and clean code practice raises the quality bar for the team around you., * Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related field.

 * 5+ years designing and implementing embedded real-time software systems using C/C++.
 * Strong familiarity with large multithreaded embedded applications running on an RTOS.
 * Familiarity with electrical and mechanical systems.
 * Experience with communication protocols such as CAN, TCP, UDP, SPI, or RS232.
 * Experience with ROS/ROS2 or sensor interfacing including GPS, LiDAR, RADAR, or ultrasonics.
 * Experience with Agile development, device drivers, or flash programming tools a plus.

Physical Requirements

 * Ability to remain in a stationary position at a computer workstation for extended periods.
 * Ability to operate a computer and other office productivity equipment continuously.
 * Ability to communicate and exchange information in person, via phone, and through electronic means.
 * Ability to traverse office, lab, data center, and field environments as required.

## Description

* Lead feature development for embedded applications on autonomous robotic vehicle platforms.
 * Diagnose and resolve complex defects across vehicle control, actuator, and perception sensor systems.
 * Drive systems engineering participation to ensure robust software integration across hardware and software stacks.
 * Write clean, reusable C and C++ code following SOLID principles and established design patterns.
 * Build and maintain unit, integration, and system simulation tests with a test-first approach.
 * Contribute to continuous refactoring and maintain disciplined use of distributed version control.
 * Support fielded systems and lead collaboration with engineering teams on integration challenges.
