Job Summary
We are seeking a highly experienced Embedded Software Engineer to design and deliver real-time software for autonomous systems operating in constrained mission-critical environments. You will be a key individual contributor shaping the architecture and guiding development on autonomous systems. The role brings together hands-on C development real-time and embedded systems expertise and ownership of software architecture with direct exposure to autonomy navigation and AI-enabled systems. It is designed for someone who is comfortable operating both as a strong individual contributor and as a technical leader shaping complex system behavior.
Architect scalable software for autonomous platforms
Build navigation control autonomy and AI/ML capabilities for edge systems
Work across hardware interfaces middleware and application logic
Collaborate cross-functionally to deliver integrated system functionality
Own architecture decisions around interfaces data flow and system constraints
Optimize performance and improve embedded development processes
Required Qualifications
Strong command of modern C
Experience with RTOS environments such as VxWorks RTEMS or embedded Linux
Deep understanding of concurrency synchronization memory management in constrained systems and deterministic real-time performance
Strength in software architecture and system design
Familiarity with embedded debugging and diagnostic tools including JTAG and trace
Experience integrating software with custom hardware and SoCs
Preferred Qualifications
Familiarity with ROS NASA cFS or similar autonomy frameworks
Working knowledge of AI/ML concepts for embedded systems including edge inference sensor fusion and perception or decision-making
Experience with GNC algorithms
Knowledge of communications protocols such as UDP/TCP CAN serial and DDS
Experience in safety-critical or high-reliability systems
Domain familiarity with unmanned systems space or satellite platforms defense/C5ISR environments or real-time edge autonomy
