Embedded Software Engineer

As a high-level technical expert, you will be responsible for addressing problems related to systems integration, compatibility, and multiple platforms. You will lead a large development team in designing highly complex software systems for both internal and external customers, ensuring project completion as required. Your role will involve designing, developing, operating, and maintaining software and firmware components and computing systems software to meet engineering, scientific, and manufacturing requirements. Independently, you will design and develop new software products or major enhancements to existing software for internal and external customers. Additionally, you will provide functional and empirical analysis in relation to the design, development, and implementation of software operating systems, including utility software, development software, and diagnostic software. Feasibility analysis on potential future projects will also be within your scope of responsibility. In this role, you will have the authority to perform and approve code and test reviews, exercising considerable latitude in determining the technical objectives of assignments. You will be expected to advance new techniques and contribute to the state-of-the-art in computer science fundamentals such as design patterns, data structures, object-oriented programming, and software design. Furthermore, mentoring less-experienced software development staff and defining software development best practices will be key aspects of your responsibilities. Representing the organization as the prime technical contact on contracts and projects, you will interact with senior external personnel on significant technical matters that often require coordination between organizations. You may also act as a team leader on complex projects, participate in the development of test strategies, devices, and systems, and ensure adherence to Agile principles and practices for yourself and your team. To qualify for this role, you must hold a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or possess an equivalent combination of education and experience. Proficiency in object engineering and applications development using C++ is essential, with experience in modern C++ (C++11/14/17) being highly preferred. Knowledge of unit and component level testing within the Catch framework using BDD style is required, along with the ability to develop technical solutions to complex problems creatively. Your experience with embedded operating systems and tools such as Yocto and/or Buildroot will be advantageous. Conducting research in design, development, testing, and utilization of electronic data processing hardware and software, as well as possessing a team-oriented attitude with excellent communication skills, are essential for success in this role.,
