Original job description

A career at Horizon is for those who want to do something extraordinary, yet with meaningful purpose. We take pride in pushing the boundaries of technology and customer experience to deliver something that has never been done before. We are a fast-moving organisation that promotes a hands-on approach, supporting each other through the tough spots, generating a close-knit team with a family feel.

What we do here is hard, but then very few things worth achieving are easy. By joining Horizon, you will have the opportunity to work with our world-class entrepreneurial team who are passionate about delivering something special.

What we need you to bring.

Horizon is seeking an open, enthusiastic Senior Embedded Software Engineer. Your role involves designing, developing and maintaining the embedded software that runs on our platform, ensuring it meets our performance, safety and design targets. Your role will be pivotal in determining what our platform is capable of, and you will support the design team with creative ideas to make our software more robust, efficient and capable.

As we’re a small team, there is significant scope for you to advance your career and learn about adjacent disciplines.

Your Day-to-Day

Support systems engineers in specifying the functionality and characteristics of airborne software based on system level requirements.
Develop embedded software in C for bare metal hardware ARM microcontroller targets (I/O drivers built upon board support packages, custom databus packet definition, packet parsing and checksum, co-operative interrupt driven schedulers etc.)
Architect and design the embedded software, considering hardware constraints, design constraints, and available resources to satisfy the system level requirements.
Integrate low level software with model-based code generated through MATLAB Simulink.
Develop automated and manual tests to perform requirements-based verification of the embedded software and software tools
Assess, measure, troubleshoot, and resolve issues with software execution and characteristics such as worst-case timing, memory margin, structural coverage, data coupling, and control coupling
Perform peer reviews of other team member’s contributions to the software development project
Follow, review, release and change software development processes.
Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, with both internal & external customers
High energy, self-motivated, organized and detail-oriented
Ability to work independently and as a member of an integrated team

Experience in most of the following areas: hard real-time systems, built-in-test, tasking and interrupts, performing and developing tests, RTOS, bare-metal development, communication protocols (CAN, I2C, SPI)
Strong understanding of software configuration management and contemporary software build, integration, test, and deployment methodologies
Comfortable reading electrical schematics, documentation, and datasheets
Experience with electronics lab equipment such as programmable power supplies, signal generators, oscilloscopes, and bus analyzers
Good team, communication, and leadership skills required
Candidates are encouraged to apply even if they don’t meet all minimum qualifications
