Job Summary

Systems Engineer

 

Key Responsibilities

  • Design, develop, and test embedded firmware/software using C/C++. 
  • Work on microcontrollers (e.g., ARM Cortex-M, AVR, PIC, STM32, etc.) and embedded platforms. 
  • Debug hardware/software issues using tools such as JTAG, oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers. 
  • Implement and optimize low-level drivers for communication protocols (SPI, I2C, UART, CAN, etc.). 
  • Collaborate with hardware engineers to bring up new hardware boards. 
  • Develop and maintain real-time embedded applications using RTOS or bare-metal programming. 
  • Document design specifications, code, and test procedures. 
  • Participate in code reviews and continuous improvement of development practices. 
  • Develop and integrate gimbal control systems for UAVs, including stabilization algorithms, IMU/encoder integration, and closed-loop motor control.

     
  • Work on real-time video stabilization, payload control interfaces, and communication between UAV flight controller and gimbal systems.

     
  • Optimize system performance for weight, power, and latency constraints specific to UAV applications.

     

 

Required Skills and Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electronics, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field. 
  • 2+ years of experience in embedded systems development. 
  • Strong programming skills in C/C++. 
  • Experience with at least one RTOS (e.g., FreeRTOS, ThreadX, Zephyr). 
  • Familiarity with debugging tools (JTAG, SWD) and lab equipment (oscilloscope, multimeter). 
  • Understanding of embedded communication protocols (UART, I2C, SPI, CAN, etc.). 
  • Hands-on experience with version control systems (e.g., Git). 
  • Ability to read and understand hardware schematics and datasheets. 
  • Experience working with gimbals, camera payloads, or similar mechatronic systems.

     
  • Knowledge of sensor fusion (IMU, encoders) and motor control for gimbal stabilization.

     

 

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with embedded Linux or bare-metal systems. 
  • Familiarity with scripting languages like Python or Bash for testing and automation. 
  • Knowledge of wireless communication protocols (BLE, Zigbee, Wi-Fi). 
  • Exposure to IoT platforms or cloud connectivity. 
  • Experience in Agile development methodologies. 
  • Experience in UAV integration: interfacing gimbal systems with UAV flight controllers, video transmission modules, and ground control stations.

     
  • Knowledge of video compression, latency optimization, and real-time data streaming.

     

 

Soft Skills

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills. 
  • Excellent verbal and written communication. 
  • Ability to work independently as well as in a team. 
  • Proactive and eager to learn new technologies.
