Embedded Software Engineer role focused on designing and developing firmware for embedded hardware, including FPGAs and SoCs, for defense technology products. Requires C/C++ programming, troubleshooting hardware/software boundaries, and experience with test equipment.

What you'd actually do

  1. Design firmware for embedded hardware, from concept to functional prototype, board bring-up, and system level integration
  2. Write C/C++ for ARM processers in modern FPGAs, SoCs, and SoMs
  3. Troubleshoot issues that span the electrical and software boundaries, with solid skills using both lab equipment (Oscilloscopes, DMM, etc.) and basic software debugging tools
  4. Work closely with hardware and software engineers for component selection, troubleshooting, and product support
  5. Work closely with other electrical, mechanical, software, firmware, and test engineers to deliver fully functional products
