Software Engineer, Systems Engineer, Embedded Software Engineer

Overview

We are partnered with a leading aerospace manufacturer specializing in electromechanical actuation systems for both commercial and military platforms. This organization designs and builds mission-critical hardware used across modern aircraft and defense systems.

• You will design, implement, and test embedded software for systems such as motor control, sensors, and health monitoring.
• You will define requirements, develop software architecture, and plan system integration in collaboration with electrical, mechanical, and systems engineers.
• You will write, document, and maintain C/C++ code for real-time embedded platforms.
• You will develop and execute software verification and validation plans, including unit testing, integration testing, hardware-in-the-loop (HIL), and programmable logic development using VHDL/Verilog.
• You will apply aerospace safety and certification standards (including DO-178 and DO-254) throughout development and documentation.
• You will support troubleshooting, failure analysis, and root cause investigations for software-related issues.
• You will maintain version control, configuration management, and requirements traceability in line with aerospace and safety standards.
• You will prepare and review technical documentation such as interface control documents, software design descriptions, and timing diagrams.
• You will work with quality and certification teams to support compliance and regulatory approvals.
• Occasional domestic or international travel (up to 10%).

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Software Engineering, or related field.
• Minimum 3 years of experience in embedded software development.
• Strong proficiency in C/C++ for real-time or embedded systems.
• Solid understanding of software development lifecycle processes and system integration.
• Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics and hardware interface documentation.
• U.S. work authorization and ability to support export-controlled programs.
• Ability to travel up to 10%.

• Experience with safety-critical software standards.
• Exposure to actuation systems, motor control, or position feedback systems.
• Hands-on experience with lab equipment for debugging and testing.
• Experience with model-based development tools, HIL environments, or code generation workflows.
• Familiarity with static analysis or software quality tools.
