Senior Embedded Software Engineer

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer – Embedded/SoC to develop and integrate low-level processor and SoC software for safety-critical avionics applications. The role focuses on embedded C/C++, ARM architecture, bare-metal software, BSP/device drivers, multicore/SMP systems, processor bring-up, bootloaders, and board-level interfaces. The ideal candidate will have strong experience working directly with target hardware and developing software for aviation or other safety-critical environments. Experience with NXP S32G2, Layerscape/LS1046A, DO-178C, DO-254, TSN, PCIe, AFDX, ARINC-429, and MIL-STD-1553B is highly valued. Key Requirements Bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field. 5+ years of embedded software development experience. Strong proficiency in C/C++ with exposure to assembly language. Strong experience with ARM processors/architecture and low-level processor software. Experience with bare-metal development, BSP, device drivers, bootloaders, and processor/SoC bring-up. Experience with multicore/SMP software environments. Hands-on experience integrating and testing software directly on target hardware. Experience with NXP S32G2 and/or Layerscape/LS1046A is highly preferred. Knowledge of safety-critical development standards, particularly DO-178B/C, DO-254, ARP4754, or ISO-26262. Experience with avionics communication interfaces such as TSN, PCIe, AFDX, ARINC-429, and MIL-STD-1553B. Familiarity with SPI, QSPI, AXI, FPGA/ASIC interfaces, and timing interactions. Knowledge of secure boot, TrustZone, isolated execution, and secure communications. Experience with Python, ARM DS IDE, and DSTREAM is preferred. Strong technical documentation, communication, troubleshooting, and leadership skills. Must be able to work onsite in Endicott, NY. Key Responsibilities Develop very low-level processor/SoC software for safety-critical avionics systems. Configure, enable, and develop SoC features, particularly NXP S32G2 and Layerscape/LS1046A. Perform processor and board bring-up, including BSP, bootloader, and low-level device-driver development. Design and implement bare-metal SMP and multicore processor frameworks. Analyze and mitigate multicore interference risks to ensure deterministic system behavior. Develop and execute SoC benchmarking and fit-for-purpose evaluation procedures. Develop and test communication capabilities involving TSN, PCIe, AFDX, ARINC-429, and other board-level interfaces. Create DO-178C Software Level A compliant test environments and methodologies. Perform complex software analyses including WCET, DCCC, and multicore performance/interference analysis. Support FPGA/ASIC interfaces, timing interactions, and hardware/software integration. Develop software architecture and design documentation for complex embedded systems. Integrate and test software directly on target hardware and troubleshoot low-level issues. Evaluate SoC suitability and generate technical reports for safety-critical avionics use cases. Collaborate with software, hardware, FPGA, and systems engineering teams. Proactively communicate technical progress, issues, risks, and solutions to project stakeholders. #J-18808-Ljbffr PeoplePilot
