Job description

We need an embedded software engineer who can work across firmware and hardware. This is not a pure software role - the candidate will use oscilloscopes, read schematics, and debug board-level issues alongside writing C code., * Writing firmware in C for STM32 microcontrollers, particularly but not limited to motor controllers

  • End to end development: derive requirements, design/architect to satisfy requirements, implementation and verification.
  • Bringing up new hardware and debugging issues alongside motor-control and electrical engineers
  • Support mechanical team with new actuator design and verification
  • Example real task: Diagnosing why an Ethernet PHY reports CRC errors by analyzing R MII clock timing with an oscilloscope, reading the PHY datasheet, and identifying a board design issue.

Requirements

  • U.S. Citizenship - Required for defense projects
  • Comfortable working on defense-related projects
  • 2-3 years embedded C programming experience
  • RTOS experience - ThreadX, FreeRTOS, Zephyr, or similar
  • Communication interface experience - Must have worked with at least 2-3 of: SPI, I2C, CAN, UART, Ethernet, BiSS-C
  • Embedded peripheral experience - Must be comfortable with Analog-to- Digital Converters, Timers, Memories (Flash, EEPROM, fRAM etc.)
  • Hardware debugging - Oscilloscope and/or logic analyzer experience
  • Software debugging - JTAG/SWD debugger experience (J-Link, Lauterbach, Ozone, etc.)
  • Schematic reading - Able to look at a circuit diagram and understand signal flow
  • On-site - Majority on-site presence required (at least 4 out of 5 days)

Nice to haves:

  • DO-178C / DAL certification experience (aerospace software safety standard)
  • Motor control background: FOC, Space Vector Modulation, current loops
  • Sensor experience: Hall sensors, incremental encoders, absolute encoders

Benefits & conditions

  • We offer competitive compensation: $120,000 to $140,000 base salary + equity
  • Exceptional healthcare benefits, Medical is 100% covered by the company
  • Flexible PTO
  • 401K
  • More to come!
