ABOUT NOVIUM

Novium is a broadly focused, value centered engineering firm with roots that run deep in the high-tech fields of space and robotics. Our mission is to enable our clients to undergo revolutionary technological change by harnessing the power of robotics, automation, and electrification to usher in the next era of industry. We embody a Give First mentality and value integrity, teamwork, personal growth, and technical excellence. These values serve as a foundation for meaningful work and relationships, a positive company culture, and ultimately generate innovative products that challenge conventional thinking.

If you share our values and have a passion for solving hard problems, we invite you to join our team at Novium.

THE ROLE

You will work with a talented multidisciplinary team of engineers to help design cutting edge robotic systems and electromechanical hardware for clients in a wide variety of industries with applications on earth and outer space. You will be responsible for writing firmware and embedded software for bringing a variety of space and robotic systems, testbeds, and electromechanical hardware online.

While being software focused, you will often be developing and troubleshooting R&D hardware which may require some basic hands on mechanical and electrical assembly skills to diagnose issues and implement fixes during the development process.

The ideal candidate will be an adaptable self-starter who is eager to learn as you will be frequently hopping between projects in different industries.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Write code for firmware, drivers, and embedded devices.
  • Hands-on bring-up and integration of electromechanical systems and devices (motors, motor controllers, linear and rotary actuators, analog and digital sensors, etc).
  • Work closely with electrical engineers and technicians to support board bring-up, integration, and testing.
  • Translate hardware requirements into firmware and embedded software requirements.
  • Be technically excellent, accountable for your work, and responsible for deadlines.
  • Constantly strive to improve your own technical skills, company processes, and be willing to both teach and learn from your peers.
  • Travel when required to support hardware assembly, testing, and integration.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

  • BS or MS in Electrical Engineering, Robotics, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or related discipline applicable to robotics
  • 5+ years of software engineering experience developing production-grade firmware and embedded software with preference to electromechanical hardware and robotic systems.
  • Experience testing, validating, and managing firmware deployments for products in the field.
  • Strong programming skills in C++ and Python with good coding, commenting, and documentation practices.
  • Proficiency coding embedded systems using C/C++, VHDL, or Verilog in a Linux environment.
  • Contribute to design documentation for test protocols, reports, and software requirements.
  • Experience with full life-cycle library and application development, Git version control, software testing, and continuous integration.
  • Ability to read circuit diagrams and perform basic debugging.
  • Development experience with robotic systems and theory (mechatronics, motor control, kinematics, dynamics, sensing, control, planning, etc.).
  • Experience working with I/O technologies and embedded systems such as: communication protocols (SPI, EtherCAT, Ethernet, UART, CAN, I2C, RS 232 etc.), actuators, motors, motor controllers, sensors (incremental and absolute encoders, analog sensors, IMUs, etc).
  • Proof of US Citizenship or US Permanent Residency is required to comply with ITAR regulations.
  • Motivation to learn whatever knowledge you are missing to get the job done right.
  • Familiarity and proficiency using basic electronics tools (soldering iron, crimpers, oscilloscope, etc).

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:

  • Experience developing Spaceflight hardware and avionics.
  • Spaceflight hardware process development cycles, from requirements generation to V&V
  • Software design/qualification experience for radiation hardened electronics.
  • Knowledge of automated software test and continuous integration systems.
  • Real Time Operating System (RTOS) development.
  • ROS and experience with ROS hardware integration.
  • Ability to work well on a team and take full responsibility for individual tasks which may be open ended.
