Embedded Software Engineer (Associate, Experienced, or Senior) joins the Space Mission Systems software capability team to develop real-time software for next-generation space-based computers. The role involves designing, developing, and testing low-level firmware and software to enable operating system and application interaction with hardware devices on an ARM-based system-on-chip. Key responsibilities include implementing board bring-up, developing Linux/RTOS Board Support Package components, and writing optimized device drivers for memory controllers, DMA, and interrupt controllers. The candidate will collaborate with hardware engineers to define register maps and architect software abstractions for interconnect fabrics like AXI and NoC. Required technical skills include C/C++, assembly, and experience with embedded Linux kernels. The work focuses on the critical challenge of ensuring hardware-software integration for space systems through robust documentation, configuration automation, and rigorous validation of memory hierarchies and power domains.
