Embedded Software Engineer - Flight Controls | Sensors & Systems presso Beta

The Embedded Software Engineer for Airborne Software will apply their knowledge of RTCA DO-178C, best practices for real-time safety-critical embedded software development, and embedded C skill set to specify, architect, design, implement and integrate the embedded software for BETA’s airborne systems. The ideal candidate will have a broad knowledge of embedded software development, from bare-metal board bring-up and understanding of microcontroller timing and execution characteristics to high-level software specification and design methods and techniques. The embedded software engineer is responsible for developing robust and reliable software to achieve the highest level of safety-criticality in the industry.



How you will contribute to revolutionizing electric aviation:

Analyze system requirements allocated to software for correctness, feasibility, and appropriateness from an embedded software perspective

Develop software high-level requirements to specify the functionality and characteristics of airborne software

Architect and design the embedded software, considering hardware constraints, design constraints, and available resources to satisfy the software high-level requirements, and specify software low-level requirements

Develop embedded software in the C and Assembly programming languages for ARM microcontroller targets

Integrate the software with other software and the target hardware

Assess, measure, troubleshoot, and resolve issues with software execution and characteristics such as timing and performance

Perform peer reviews of other team member's contributions to the software development project

Inform the software verification team of the appropriate testing and analysis of the embedded

Minimum Qualifications:

BS in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related degree from an accredited university

Minimum 3 years experience in real-time embedded software development

Requirements for engineering and software architecture/design experience

Proficiency with the C programming language

Knowledge of Texas Instruments Hercules and/or STM ARM microcontrollers, or equivalent
