Embedded Software Engineer, Array Labs

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or related field
• 4+ years of embedded software experience
• Good understanding of Embedded Systems and OS concepts (Linux/RTOS)
• Experience in one or more of the following areas: BSP/Board Support Package, Operating Systems, RTOS, Bootloader, Power Management, Linux, MCU (Microcontroller)
• Excellent teamwork and communication skills
• Learns new concepts rapidly, completely, and in a self-directed manner
• High levels of self-motivation and personal accountability
• Ability to work in a fast-paced environment under significant time constraints
• Experience programming in C or C++ in embedded environments and in Python to support development, automation, and testing

Desirable

• As an Embedded Software Engineer, you will develop the embedded software that enables Array’s radar sensors, communication links, and flight systems to operate reliably in orbit
• Your work will include board bring-up of Linux-based platforms, high-performance data movement between sensors and compute elements, integration with FPGA and RF subsystems, and the development of safety-critical control and FDIR algorithms
• You will collaborate closely with signal processing, hardware, and GNC engineers to prototype, evaluate, and deploy software architectures that meet demanding latency, throughput, and reliability requirements. The software you build will directly influence radar performance, system robustness, and mission resilience on orbit
• As part of our quickly growing engineering team, you will play a critical role in building the world’s most advanced radar satellite constellation—one that will significantly improve humanity’s ability to rapidly and comprehensively understand our changing planet
• Develop highly reliable and available software systems for our low-latency, high-capacity radar sensor, communication system, and flight control system
• Board bring-up of a Linux-based platform that integrates radar sensors, flight computers, RF transceivers, and navigation sensors
• Work collaboratively with signal processing, hardware, and GNC engineers to build performant and reliable embedded software for our payload
• Rapid prototyping and evaluation of key architectural choices and design constraints
• Implement high-efficiency data movement between our radar sensor, FPGA fabric, microprocessors, networking interfaces, and storage peripherals
• Develop safety-critical system-level software for hardware components and develop FDIR (fault detection, isolation, and recovery) algorithms for mission-critical systems
• Debug complex, system-level, multi-component issues that typically span across multiple layers from kernel to driver to application

• We will conduct three interviews via Zoom; the typical process takes around 2-4 weeks to complete from start to finish
