  • Work collaboratively with signal processing, hardware, and GNC engineers to build performant and reliable embedded software for our payload
  • Rapid prototyping and evaluation of key architectural choices and design constraints
  • Implement high-efficiency data movement between our radar sensor, FPGA fabric, microprocessors, networking interfaces, and storage peripherals.
  • Develop safety-critical system-level software for hardware components and develop FDIR (fault detection, isolation, and recovery) algorithms for mission-critical systems
  • Debug complex, system-level, multi-component issues that typically span across multiple layers from kernel to driver to application


Basic Qualifications:


  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or related field
  • 11+ years of embedded software experience
  • Good understanding of Embedded Systems and OS concepts (Linux/RTOS).
  • Experience in one or more of the following areas: BSP/Board Support Package, Operating Systems, RTOS, Bootloader, Power Management, Linux, MCU (Microcontroller).

Preferred Skills and Experience:


  • Master’s degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or related field
  • Experience with aerospace or space projects (flight control/GNC)
  • Experience in the automotive, medical robotics, or similar regulated embedded device industry with a focus on safety and high availability
  • Good understanding of multi-threaded embedded system concepts including tasks, priorities, and deadlocks
  • Embedded software debugging experience including clock-level issues, bridges, delays, interrupts, clock gating, and polling using debuggers (Keil, J-Link)
  • Experience building software for complex embedded systems or custom SoCs
  • Hands-on coding experience with peripherals with interfaces such as UART, SPI, CSI-2, i2c, GPIO, USB, and PCIE
  • Experience developing with modern Real-Time Operating Systems (FreeRTOS, Zephyr, ThreadX, VxWorks)
  • Experience with embedded software design and debugging of boards with multiple processors (ARM/RISC-V, DSPs, MCUs) and a large array of peripherals using a multitude of interfaces (SPI, UART, GPIO, I2C, Ethernet)
  • Experience with a variety of microprocessors (ARM,Nordic, Microchip, STM, etc) and hardware modules
  • Working knowledge of networking stack (Ethernet, TCP/IP suite) desired
  • Ability to read and interpret schematic diagrams
