Overview
Principal Software Engineer (Embedded Systems) role at
Safran . Onsite location preferred for local candidates. This position leads the design, development, testing and modification of software used in aerospace electrical and electronic equipment and interfaces with cross-functional groups to ensure robust, airworthy designs that meet budget and schedule requirements. Principal Embedded Software Engineer responsibilities include ownership and/or leadership of software teams and projects related to W&W System Components, with a focus on performance and reliability in commercial aerospace hardware. Responsibilities
Design and implement advanced control algorithms for power electronic applications Develop control system software requirements to write embedded code for 3-phase Active Rectifier, Motor Control electronics Contribute to system design and independently develop subsystem designs that meet requirements; evaluate tradeoffs between requirements, cost and reliability Test/debug power electronics controllers and perform source and assembly level debugging Optimize software performance by collaborating with control system engineers Engage with suppliers to review control software design Lead or support software design review activities; interface with vendors, customers and other departments on technical issues Independently own or lead a team for small/medium size software development Review, check and approve work by peers and lower level engineers Provide guidance and training to lower level engineers Assess standard work and support or lead improvement projects Understand how engineering, industrialization and operations work together within the company Analyze customer requirements and validate them via analysis/modeling/prototyping or product performance Create software requirements specification and hardware/software interface control documents Create verification plan for validating product compliance to requirements Interface independently with technical analysts to define software design Qualifications and Experience
Education and/or Experience: Aerospace industry experience is required Bachelors or Masters or PhD in electrical or computer engineering from ABET-accredited institution or equivalent Bachelors in electrical or computer engineering with 8+ years of software design experience in aerospace industry Master's in electrical or computer engineering with 6+ years of software design experience in aerospace industry PhD in electrical or computer engineering with 3+ years of software design experience in aerospace industry Other requirements: Hands-on programming skills in C/C++, VHDL/Verilog and scripting languages (Perl/Python/PowerShell) Knowledge of embedded systems architecture and programming Experience with LabVIEW Firmware development experience on DSPs and microcontrollers (e.g., TMS320F28XX, PIC18/16xx, MC68xxx, X86 DSPs) Analytical ability in complex embedded software architecture and design (active rectifiers, PFC, inverter, motor control) Experience with CAN, ARINC429, I2C, SPI, RS-232 software modules Proficiency with simulation tools such as PSIM, MATLAB, Simulink Strong interpersonal skills and ability to work in a team; capable of leadership and mentoring Experience using electronics test equipment and instrumentation for parameter characterization and validation Understanding of communication protocols and aerospace standards (CAN, ARINC, RTCA/DO-160, DO-254, DO-178) Work Environment and Travel
Physical demands include regular movement around the office Work environment generally minimal noise Travel may be minimal, typically 5-10 days per quarter Company Information
