Sr. Embedded Systems Engineer

SR. EMBEDDED SYSTEMS ENGINEER

We are looking for an exceptional senior engineer to select and deploy a real-time embedded system to run a new linear generation system. The system has challenging hard real-time requirements and must start, stop, and operate a fully autonomous fly-by-wire machine deployed on customer sites. You will help choose the embedded platform, create the development environment and software stack, implement firmware (RTOS, drivers, FPGA modules, etc.), and work with the rest of the team to implement control, monitoring, and remote updates in addition to reevaluating the list of features and requirements.

RESPONSIBILITIES      

• Architect and implement processor operations for multiple system control units.
• Design and implement fast inter-module communication between motor controllers and other control units.
• Design software to manage microprocessor hardware and interface with user-space code.
• Implement user algorithms in software.
• Choose microprocessors and daughter/development boards to meet system specifications for multiple control units.  Create build process and tools for multi-processor environment.

QUALIFICATIONS         

• Degree in Electrical or Computer Science Engineering with five or more years of experience.
• Generalist with solid physics background and track record in making.
• Mastery of C/C++.
• Experience with microprocessors/DSPs and RTOS.
• Experience controlling motors.
• Experience with complex integrated real-time mechatronic systems (e.g. automotive powertrain controller).
