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
