ServicePoint LLC
Overview
Service Point has a customer seeking an Sr. Burst Capacity Software Engineer for a 6 month hybrid opportunity based in Long Beach CA. Individual will need to be onsite 2-3 days per week to support a Burst Capacity. Software Engineering Resource must meet a very high bar technically and operationally. These engineers are brought in during surges in development or mission-critical timelines. Candidates must be technically elite, adaptable, and ready to contribute immediately in a fast-paced aerospace environment. Core Software Engineering Skills
Proficiency in systems-level programming languages: C/C for embedded and high-performance systems; Rust for memory-safe, concurrency-safe development; Python or Go for scripting, automation, and backend tasks Strong understanding of: Real-time operating systems (RTOS) and embedded platforms; Multithreading, concurrency models, and synchronization; Low-level hardware interfaces (I2C, SPI, UART, CAN, etc.) Aerospace & Space Systems Software Experience
Software development experience in spacecraft avionics and onboard systems Flight software (FSW) and ground control interfaces Command/telemetry protocols like CCSDS, CANOpen, or custom IPC Familiarity with radiation-hardened environments and limited onboard compute Deterministic software behavior under critical timing constraints Simulation, Modeling & Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL)
Experience working with HIL and software-in-the-loop (SIL) testing systems Digital twin or spacecraft emulator environments Tools such as MATLAB/Simulink, NASA Trick, Gazebo, or GMAT DevOps & CI/CD in Flight-Critical Systems
Proficiency in CI/CD pipelines and version control systems: Git, Docker, Kubernetes (primarily for ground-side ops) Jenkins, GitLab CI/CD, Bazel, or equivalent Knowledge of automated testing and static analysis tools: Cppcheck, Clang-Tidy, Coverity, VectorCAST System Architecture and Scalability
Experience designing distributed systems for spacecraft-ground data flow Knowledge of networking, telemetry packetization, and IPC frameworks Ability to optimize software for memory, CPU, and bandwidth constraints Cybersecurity & Space-Grade Hardening
Understanding of embedded security best practices Encryption, secure boot, firmware validation Fault tolerance in space-grade systems Toolchains and Standards
Familiarity with GNU toolchain (gcc, gdb) and cross-compilation environments Aerospace and safety standards (e.g., DO-178C, NASA software guidelines) Tools like Git, JIRA, Confluence, Bitbucket, VS Code, CLion Soft Skills and Operational Agility
Quick ramp-up time and ability to work under pressure Strong code ownership, rapid prototyping, and iteration mindset Clear documentation practices for knowledge transfer to permanent staff ServicePoint is an equal opportunity employer that is committed to diversity and inclusion in the workplace. We prohibit discrimination and harassment of any kind based on race, color, sex, religion, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, genetic information, pregnancy, or any other protected characteristic as outlined by federal, state, or local laws.
