Develop software for video, audio, RF, and UHF processing and control systems used in advanced broadcast and media applications.
Implement multithreaded, real-time, and bare-metal embedded applications, including work with FreeRTOS or equivalent RTOS platforms.
Develop software for multi-processor systems and implement robust inter-processor communication mechanisms.
Support custom hardware bring-up, including bootloader development, board-level integration, and low-level hardware initialization.
Create desktop applications and graphical user interfaces (GUIs) for system-level control, monitoring, and configuration of video, audio, and RF systems.
Perform system-level testing, validation, troubleshooting, and performance optimization for embedded and desktop applications.
Develop test applications and automated verification tools to support regression testing and continuous improvement.
Collaborate closely with hardware engineers to interpret electronic schematics, diagnose board-level issues, and refine system designs.
Use oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and other test equipment to debug and validate embedded systems and communication interfaces.
Implement and maintain communication interfaces such as SPI, I2C, RS-232/RS-485, CAN Bus, and Ethernet within embedded systems.
Design and implement GUIs for control and monitoring of broadcast, video, audio, and RF systems.
Conduct system-level testing and troubleshooting for both embedded and desktop software components.
Use Git and related software configuration management tools to manage source code, branching, merging, and release processes.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including firmware, hardware, and systems engineering, to deliver integrated solutions.
