Austin, United States Terra Firma Full time

Founded by former SpaceX Engineers and backed by Bain Capital Ventures, TerraFirma is dedicated to revolutionizing the way that humanity builds large-scale physical infrastructure. The companys core belief is that a drastic reduction in construction costs and timelines is essential for building a brighter future here on Earth.

The role of Embedded Systems Software Engineer at TerraFirma involves taking hands-on ownership over both high-level design decisions for custom embedded hardware and direct implementation for low-level code. Day-to-day responsibilities will involve software development for Linux-based systems with real-time constraints and microcontrollers for sensing and feedback control. Engineers in this role should expect to own platform bringup for new boards, perform driver development for new chips and sensors, and play an active role in shaping the testing framework and standards for TerraFirmas software development processes. This role is best suited for fast learners who are comfortable working with a high degree of autonomy and large scope of responsibility.

Responsibilities

  • Design and architect firmware and low level code for embedded systems and microcontrollers
  • Perform platform bringup for new hardware, including driver implementation, sensor integration, boot chain development, and basic networking
  • Own the integration, calibration, and testing of sensors both for proof-of-concept prototypes and production systems
  • Lead interdisciplinary teams, mentor new employees, and actively participate in the hiring process

Basic Qualifications

  • Bachelors of Science in computer engineering, computer science, electrical engineering, or a closely related field
  • 3+ years of professional or project experience with software and firmware development for embedded systems and microcontrollers
  • Proficiency in C, C++, Rust (optional), and Python for Linux environments and baremetal applications
  • Demonstrated experience owning large scale deliverables, leading teams, and driving product roadmaps

Preferred Skills & Experience

  • Experience working with safety-critical or real-time systems
  • Experience working with embedded applications for robotics, autonomous vehicles, aerospace, automotive, or construction
  • Familiarity with platform and toolchain development for embedded systems
  • Experience building testing frameworks or designing CI/CD pipelines
  • Ability to work autonomously in a fast-paced environment

Additional Requirements

  • Must be willing to work extended hours or weekends when needed to support critical deadlines or triage urgent deployment issues
  • Must be willing to relocate to Austin, TX if not within commuting distance

Compensation & Benefits

Base compensation is negotiable and will vary based on factors such as relevant experience and education. Salaries and leveling will be determined on a case-by-case basis if an offer is extended. Employees are additionally eligible for compensation in the form of company stock and stock options, as well as performance-based cash and stock incentives. Relocation packages are available to compensate employees for moving costs if applicable.
