Position Overview:

This role involves taking responsibility for parts of the software that run directly on hardware components, such as small processors or control boards, with guidance from more senior team members. We value and encourage people to grow and work across disciplines. We have hardware engineers who work on software and software engineers who work on hardware.

About Us:

Marcus Engineering is a contract, electrical-focused product development company handling diverse projects.

Our driven Electrical and Software Engineers are deeply passionate about their work, excelling in engineering fundamentals and effective communication. We blend creativity with disciplined, rapid development of IoT devices, medical devices, industrial, and military electronics. We value individuals with a dedicated engineering spirit who can lead and take responsibility.

Our dynamic environment requires quick learners to tackle new and unique challenges. We offer a challenging environment where constant learning, quick thinking, and hands-on design are essential. Our strong profit-sharing program and reimbursement for personal projects are core to our team's culture and success.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Write Embedded Software:
    Write and take ownership of portions of software running on microcontrollers in C, as well as Python software running on PCs that support hardware-based products, both with the guidance of more senior engineers.
  • Support Embedded Hardware:
    Work closely with the hardware engineering team to define, build, and test products and systems under the guidance of senior engineers.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration:
    Work with teams across multiple disciplines, including electrical, mechanical, and software engineering, as well as with customers and their technical teams, to support ongoing project development and ensure effective communication between all contributors.
  • Technical Breadth and Depth:
    Develop a wide range of skills across both software and hardware, while building focused expertise in at least one technical area.
  • Proposal Writing:
    Contribute to proposal development and documentation, helping to define technical approaches and resource estimates as part of the company's broader project and business development efforts.

Ideal Candidate Profile:

We value curiosity, self-taught learning, initiative, and hands-on experience.

  • Ability to program in at least one language, ideally C (Python is a plus).
  • Experience in a professional work environment, demonstrating reliability, teamwork, and accountability.
  • Interest in developing skills across both software and hardware disciplines.
  • Bonus: Experience outside of academic work involving programming or working with microcontrollers.

We Offer:

  • Health Insurance
  • Paid Time Off (plus Paid Holidays)
  • Dental/Vision
