Embedded software engineer - Linux
If you are constantly worried about memory overflow, divide by 0 - this is for you
If you like recursive acronyms such as GNU - this is for you
If you like working on real time systems - this is for you
RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Design, develop and test (space hardened) avionics firmware that will support the functions of our launch vehicles and test systems.
- Strong firmware debugging capabilities with respect to embedded system issues
- Create firmware systems with efficiency, modularity, extensibility, and robustness
- Knowledgable about serial communication protocols and ability to read bus traces (I2C, SPI, UART, USB, etc.)
- Support through production and testing phase is expected.
- Experience with a different MCUs(Cortex M4, MSP), peripherals, features, and development environments.
- Able to read board schematics and know EE fundamentals
- Experience with FPGA programming is a plus
- Simple soldering and rework experience is a plus
- Proficient in C and C++ embedded firmware development
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:
- Bachelor of Science Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or Physics.
- A minimum of 3 years of first-hand experience with Embedded Linux development.
- A good knowledge of porting Linux kernel to various ARM-based SOCs, architecture, and peripherals.
- Experience with Embedded Linux root file systems (Yocto, OpenEmbedded, Buildroot)
- Experience in BSP, Linux Internals, Linux Device Driver Development.
- Working knowledge of Ethernet and TCP/IP networking.
- A firm understanding of Bootloader (U-boot) and porting to different architectures.
- Experience working on RTOS (FreeRTOS, Keil RTX, etc.)
PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:
- Masters of Science Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or equivalent area of focus.
- 2+ years of board level experience designing hardware from concept through production; strong emphasis on full lifecycle development of new hardware systems -- not small incremental updates to legacy hardware.
- Ability to work in a fast paced, autonomously driven, and demanding start-up atmosphere
- Excellent communication skills both written and verbal.
ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:
- Must be available to work extended hours and weekends as needed
