Embedded Software Engineer, Lasers

Responsibilities

• Implement and tune active laser control and stabilization algorithms on embedded targets.
• Own firmware components for photonic transceiver diagnostics, telemetry, and monitoring from requirements through bring-up, testing, and release.
• Contribute to control-plane and diagnostics architecture with photonic, analog, digital, systems, and network engineers.
• Integrate transceiver management and telemetry with CMIS, OpenBMC, and DMTF interfaces and standards.
• Bring up new hardware and debug embedded systems using GDB, JTAG, logic analyzers, and oscilloscopes.
• Characterize laser behavior with optical test equipment and create automated test and data-collection scripts.
• Document technical findings and communicate effectively with engineers across specialties.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree plus 5+ years of experience, master’s degree plus 3+ years of experience, or a PhD; equivalent practical experience is considered.
• Degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics, or a related technical field.
• Experience contributing embedded software to shipped products or production or field-deployed hardware.
• Proficiency in C or C++ and comfort using Python for tooling, testing, and analysis.
• Understanding of hardware-software integration and embedded peripherals and buses including I2C, SPI, UART, and GPIO.
• Experience developing firmware in resource-constrained environments; bare-metal and RTOS experience is preferred.
• Hands-on embedded debugging experience with GDB, JTAG, logic analyzers, or oscilloscopes.
• Working knowledge of Git and experience with CMake or a comparable build system.
• Preferred experience with closed-loop control, optical transceivers, photonic systems, precision analog or mixed-signal hardware, CMIS, OpenBMC, DMTF/Redfish, optical communications, laser physics, optical testing, hardware-in-the-loop test benches, or firmware CI.
