Embedded Systems Software Engineer

As an Embedded Systems Software Engineer, you’ll play a role in developing and certifying our Seaglider product family. You’ll contribute to embedded software development, simulation testing, and hands-on electronics work, helping ensure our platform stays reliable, testable, and ready to evolve. From managing real-time software and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing to wiring up harnesses and spinning up GUIs, your work will directly impact how we prototype, validate, and push the boundaries of our tech. You’ll also collaborate closely with our controls, avionics, and modeling teams to ensure a smooth path from concept to demo - both on the bench and at sea. If you’re energized by working at the intersection of cutting-edge innovation, real-world impact, and hands-on engineering, you’ll be in the right place - and we’d be thrilled to have you on the team!

Responsibilities

Contribute to Seaglider product family embedded software stack: Develop, debug, and maintain the real-time software that runs on our Seaglider product family, from microcontroller code to Linux-based applications; Support test environment development and testing: Contribute towards development of the SIL and HIL test environment for verification of controls software. This will include coordinating with multiple disciplinary teams; Manage COTS electronics & harnessing: Set up and maintain the electronics ecosystem - from sensors and servos to single-board computers, harnesses, and breakout boards; Improve developer tools and processes: Automate build systems, streamline deployment pipelines, and build tooling to facilitate maintenance and certification; Prototype and field-test: Be a key part of the sea trials team - monitoring operation, running diagnostics, troubleshooting in the field, and reliably showing off our latest and greatest Seaglider capabilities

Requirements
