Original job description

Embedded EngineerThe Firmware Engineer designs, develops, and tests embedded software for advanced aerospace and defense systems, ensuring high reliability, performance, and compliance with industry standards. This role focuses on developing efficient firmware in C and related languages for microcontrollers and embedded systems, collaborating closely with cross-functional engineering teams to deliver robust, production-ready solutions. The position offers the opportunity to work on cutting-edge spaceflight and valve control technologies while contributing directly to products used in space launch vehicles and satellite applications.Responsibilities

Design, develop, and test embedded software, including performing requirements analysis, architecture design, implementation, and integration for embedded systems.
Write efficient, reliable, and maintainable code in languages such as C, C++, C#, and Python for microcontroller-based and bare-metal embedded applications.
Debug software and firmware issues using a variety of tools and techniques, including JTAG, emulators, and other embedded debugging tools.
Develop and execute software verification and validation plans, including unit testing, integration testing, and system testing, to ensure robust and reliable performance.
Create, execute, and maintain software tests to validate functionality, performance, and compliance with specifications and standards.
Work closely with cross-functional teams, including hardware engineering, systems engineering, and test engineering, to ensure software compatibility, seamless system integration, and effective problem resolution.
Collaborate with engineers and technicians in a laboratory environment to bring up hardware, integrate firmware, and troubleshoot system-level issues.
Maintain accurate and up-to-date documentation, including software design documents, test plans, user manuals, and other technical records.
Manage software configuration using version control systems to ensure traceability, reproducibility, and controlled releases.
Ensure compliance with relevant industry standards and regulations, including DO-178C and DO-254, and apply formal Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) processes.
Apply software architecture and design best practices to create modular, scalable, and maintainable embedded software solutions.
Perform code optimization and profiling to improve performance, resource utilization, and reliability of embedded applications.
Follow and apply coding standards such as MISRA C and use code coverage and analysis tools to improve software quality.
Contribute to continuous improvement of development processes, tools, and practices within the engineering team.

Essential Skills

Bachelors degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or Electrical Engineering.
Development experience using C for embedded application development.
