Senior Firmware Engineer

Salary: $180,000 - $270,000 (Flex for exceptional candidates) ) Positio n: Full Ti me Most firmware engineers write code for boards that never leave the bench. This isn't th at. You'll be building the real-time embedded software that lets an autonomous defense system sense, decide, and act, software that has to survive field conditions, hardware constraints, and military-grade reliability requirements, not just pass a unit t est. You won't be handed a spec and a black-boxed board. You'll be reading datasheets, drawing the schematics yourself, and owning the system from silicon to control loop, on a small team where your design decisions ship. If you want to work on hard, real-world autonomy problems with a team that's already proven it can build and exit companies, this is that kind of role. Qualifications and Skills Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a relate d field.3+ years of experience in electrical and firmware design, including schematic design and embedded software deve lopment.3+ years developing real-time, safety-critical embedded systems.Strong proficiency in C++ for embedded systems, plus Python for scripting/deve lopment.Knowledge of microcontroller-based control systems, including power conversion and motor drives.Ability to interpret microcontroller, digital, and analog IC datasheets and produce detailed electrical sch ematics.Hands-on experience with testing methodologies, equipment, and validation protocols for military-standard designs.Experience deploying real-time control software in robotics or autonomous systems.Ability to integrate software with sensors, actuators, and control h d to Have Embedded Linux and RTOS experience, including building custom kernels for embedded platforms.Knowledge of networking protocols (TCP/IP, UDP) and robotics communication protocols (CAN, U ART, I2C).Experience optimizing code for low-latency, high-performance embedded applications under strict power and compute co nstraints. #J-18808-Ljbffr
