Full Job Posting

  • Embedded firmware for microcontrollers and SoCs in a bare-metal and/or RTOS environment (FreeRTOS, Zephyr, or similar)
  • Driver development, peripheral integration, and board bring-up for custom hardware platforms
  • Real-time control loops and sensor fusion pipelines where timing and determinism are non-negotiable
  • Hardware debugging: oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, JTAG, and willingness to get comfortable with a schematic
  • C++ and Python tooling for testing, scripting, and automation around embedded targets
  • Development of models and emulators for aircraft components to ensure hardware behavior is faithfully represented in our cloud simulation framework

You probably have:

  • 5+ years of professional embedded software development, with production firmware shipped on real hardware
  • Deep fluency in C and/or C++; Python for scripting and test tooling
  • Hands-on experience with at least one RTOS and with bare-metal development
  • Comfort reading schematics, using bench instruments, and debugging hardware/software integration issues at the signal level
  • Experience with communications protocols: SPI, I2C, UART, CAN, Ethernet
  • Strong opinions about code quality, testability, and the difference between software that works in the lab and software that works in the field

It’s a bonus if you have:

  • Experience in aerospace, defense, robotics, or other safety-critical domains
  • Familiarity with DO-178, MISRA, or other embedded software standards
  • Exposure to desktop tooling or visualization for hardware debug and test workflows
  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines for embedded targets (HIL, SIL, emulation)
  • Primary languages: C++ and Python
  • RTOS: FreeRTOS and bare-metal depending on target
  • Toolchains: GCC/Clang cross-compilers, CMake, custom build infrastructure
  • Version control and CI: Git, GitHub, cloud-based batch simulation and test runners
  • Modern AI coding tools used as productivity accelerators, not as a substitute for engineering judgment
