Job description

We are seeking a highly skilled Embedded Software Engineer to design, develop, and integrate software for embedded systems across the full development lifecycle. You will work from requirements analysis and architecture through implementation, testing, verification, and formal validation, with a strong emphasis on ensuring robust, reliable, and compliant solutions. In addition to hands-on technical development, you will support proposal efforts by translating customer requirements into clear work tasks and effort estimates, and communicate software solutions effectively to internal teams and customers. Responsibilities

  • Perform full lifecycle development for embedded systems, including implementation, unit testing, integration, and formal sell-off testing.
  • Review customer requirements, translate them into detailed specifications, and produce technical documentation, designs, operational concepts, and effort estimates.
  • Collaborate closely with hardware engineers to ensure seamless integration of software with electronic components, boards, and embedded hardware platforms.
  • Develop and execute comprehensive test plans and procedures, perform debugging and troubleshooting, and ensure compliance with functional and performance specifications.
  • Conduct design and code reviews, resolve defects, and adhere to established development processes, configuration management practices, and release procedures.
  • Design, develop, maintain, and debug embedded software applications using C and Python.
  • Develop and execute automated test scripts and maintain automated test environments for embedded software systems.
  • Review and interpret system and software requirements, ensuring full traceability and verification of requirement compliance.
  • Perform integration, verification, and validation testing on embedded hardware and software components.
  • Participate in software architecture discussions, code reviews, and design evaluations to improve system performance and maintainability.
  • Develop new features, enhance existing functionality, and troubleshoot software issues throughout the product lifecycle.
  • Utilize instrument control and lab equipment such as single-board computers, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and power supplies for hardware and software validation.
  • Collaborate closely with software and hardware engineers to troubleshoot and resolve defects, performance issues, and integration challenges.
  • Maintain detailed test and development documentation, including test cases, software design records, test results, and compliance reports.
  • Support continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines for automated build, test, and release processes.
  • Conduct formal verification activities and provide clear evidence of requirement compliance for audits and qualification efforts.
  • Present development progress, test results, and technical findings to internal teams and customers in a clear and professional manner.
  • Support root cause analysis of field issues and implement corrective software solutions to improve product reliability.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives focused on software quality, reliability, maintainability, and performance.
