## Description

* Embedded development and verification of safety critical software components for the aircraft battery management system
 * Develop and integrate battery controls and complex low-level drivers for battery microcontrollers to interface directly with analog and digital front-end circuitry
 * Work with systems engineers to decompose item requirements into high-level and low-level software requirements in compliance with DO-178C
 * Work with a multi-disciplinary team to develop, integrate, verify and certify complex hardware/software systems
 * Develop and implement fault detection and diagnostic algorithms in software to identify and respond to hardware-level events such as insulation breakdown, short circuits, and sensor failures.
 * Apply digital signal processing and filtering techniques to sensor data (e.g., cell voltages, pack current) to improve the accuracy and reliability of critical state estimation and protection functions.
 * Analyze hardware schematics to inform the development of low-level software and lead the initial board bring-up and debugging of new BMS hardware designs
 * Participate in the definition and documentation of streamlined software development and verification processes supporting the certification of safety critical software to comply with DO-178C
 * Foster team collaboration to promote and support personal development
