Job description
- Work with your mentor to implement and test bare-metal drivers for I²C, SPI, ADC, DMA, and other interfaces
- Assist in node bring-up from power-on to firmware load, capturing boot logs and helping debug hardware-software interactions in the lab
- Gain experience designing and implementing algorithms for link optimization and per-unit calibration in C++ and Python
- Come up with new software-enabled ways to automatically validate device operation and production processes
Requirements
- Pursuing or recently completed a BS or MS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related field with a GPA of 3.5 or greater
- Portfolio of hands-on projects with a hardware element: embedded firmware, robotics, signal-processing, etc. for Formula SAE, SolarCar, Robotics, CubeSats, or other club/personal builds. Portfolios of software-only projects will not be considered.
- Exposure to I²C, SPI, ADC sampling, or similar protocols, and a curiosity for low-level hardware interfaces
- Proficient in Python and C or C++ and comfort working in a Linux environment
- Strong analytical mindset, first-principles problem solving, and clear communication
PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE
- Your projects demonstrate not just software engineering aptitude but also multidisciplinary knowledge of electrical engineering and mechanical engineering concepts
