Impulse Space
Overview
As an
Embedded Software Engineer
you will write code for custom avionics hardware to execute flight and ground test functions. You will collaborate with avionics hardware engineers, GNC engineers, propulsion engineers, and others to develop performant and maintainable solutions. You will contribute to many aspects of spacecraft development, including architecting new systems, building quick prototypes, executing rigorous flight projects, and controlling flight hardware during ground tests. Responsibilities
Implement and improve low-level processor functions such as controls of peripherals and setup of communication interfaces. Implement and improve functions such as closed-loop control of physical processes and detection/response algorithms for failures (e.g., broken sensors or radiation upsets). Provide technical input on new system developments from an embedded software perspective. Write scrappy code to support development testing of avionics and propulsion devices. Write rigorous, reviewed, and tested code to support manufacturing and flight. Minimum Qualifications
Bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, math, or scientific discipline; OR 2+ years of professional software development experience in lieu of a degree. 1+ years of experience writing C/C++ code for an embedded system or vehicle (robot, car, drone, or spacecraft). Preferred Skills and Experience
Experience using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, hardware debuggers, and source-level debuggers to troubleshoot problems at all layers of the stack. Knowledge of communication protocols including I2C, CAN, SPI, UART, etc. Knowledge of microprocessors/microcontrollers with understanding of caches, buses, memory controllers, and DMA. Experience developing low-level drivers for camera modules (e.g., MIPI CSI-2, USB, SPI, I2C). Understanding of sensor communication protocols and interfacing with custom or commercial image sensors. Experience interfacing with motor drivers, power electronics, and sensor feedback systems (encoders, current sensors).
Additional Information
Compensation bands are determined by role, level, location, and market data. Individual base pay is determined on a case-by-case basis and may vary based on job-related skills, education, experience, and internal equity. In addition to base salary, full-time hires may be eligible for long-term incentives in the form of stock options, and access to medical, vision & dental coverage as well as a 401(k) retirement plan. Impulse Space’s spacecraft manufacturing business is subject to U.S. export regulations including ITAR and EAR. This position requires applicants to be U.S. Persons or eligible to obtain an export license from U.S. government agencies. Learn more about ITAR. Impulse Space is an Equal Opportunity Employer; employment is based on merit, competence, and qualifications and will not be influenced by race, color, religion, gender, national origin, veteran status, disability status, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, or any other legally protected status.
