Software Engineer - Embedded (Early-Mid Level)
About The Position
The Software Engineer designs and manufactures existing and emerging technologies, systems, and capabilities, with an emphasis on embedded software for avionics, power electronics, and battery systems. The role develops software-defined products and intellectual property, including cockpit displays, instruments and navigation references using local and remote sensor inputs, data conversion and storage, lithium battery management, AC and DC power conversion, and in-seat power solutions. This is an onsite position; remote applications will not be considered. The engineer designs and implements embedded C software for bare-metal microcontroller systems, with possible VHDL firmware work for FPGA-based systems. The role also involves researching components and technologies, developing tools for manufacturing and verification, building and troubleshooting hardware, prototyping and running tests, and documenting designs. Work takes place in office and test-lab settings within a clean, climate-controlled, professional light-manufacturing facility.
