Job description

The Connected Warfare team builds, deploys, and scales modern command and control capabilities like the Menace Family-of-Systems. As the firmware engineer closest to the hardware, you are the critical link between Electrical Engineering and the rest of the software stack. You will own the end-to-end firmware for systems like Menace-I-from initial board bring-up and driver development to system-level integration and field testing-solving the toughest technical challenges at the hardware-software boundary

You'll be building the foundational embedded software for the Connected Warfare team. As a generalist firmware engineer, you'll be responsible for bringing new hardware to life - writing real-time microcontroller code, developing reusable device drivers for sensors and peripherals, and debugging the gnarly, cross-disciplinary problems that live at the boundary of hardware and software. You will work shoulder-to-shoulder with our Electrical Engineering team on some of the most complex autonomous systems being built today.

What You'll Do

  • Develop low-level firmware/software for microcontrollers, create reusable device drivers, integrate system-level features and architect changes to support an ever-growing codebase
  • Quickly debug and troubleshoot issues that span the electrical, firmware, and software boundaries
  • Review schematics with the electrical engineering team, To ensure your safety and help you navigate your job search with confidence, please keep the following critical points in mind:
  • No Financial Requests: Anduril will never solicit payment or demand personal financial details (such as banking information, credit card numbers, or social security numbers) at any stage of our hiring process. Our legitimate recruitment is entirely free for candidates.

Requirements

  • BS or MS in CS/CE/EE or equivalent industry experience

  • Strong C coding ability for embedded systems

  • Experience integrating microcontrollers with analog and digital sensors

  • Experience developing firmware in bare-metal or RTOS environments

  • Solid understanding and application of coding best practices, board bring up and debugging

  • Some familiarity with common bus protocols such as Ethernet, USB, SPI, I2C, CAN, RS232, RS485, etc.

  • U.S. Persons status is required as this position needs to access export controlled data

  • Experience with one or more microcontroller cores (ARM, AVR, MSP430, PIC, etc.)

  • Debugging skills with JTAG, SWD, Oscilloscopes, and Logic analyzers

  • Have a bias for action. If you see a problem, you want to solve and fix it

  • Be naturally curious about the technologies and tools you use
