VMS Software Engineer

Who you are

• Experience: 2–5 years of embedded software engineering
• Core Languages: Strong proficiency in modern C++ (11/14/17/20) for production code. Fluency in Python and Bash for data manipulation, testing, and prototyping
• Mindset: You are comfortable working with ambiguity. You don’t need a manual for everything; you can figure out how things work (or why they don't) and devise creative workarounds to keep the project moving
• OS: Solid understanding of Embedded Linux (kernel/user-space interactions) and how to manipulate it via the shell
• Real-Time: Experience with real-time constraints and resource constrained hardware
• Build Systems: Familiarity with Yocto, GTest, CMake, ansible is a plus

What the job involves

• We are seeking a resourceful hands-on Embedded Software Engineer to build high-reliability real-time systems. You will operate at the intersection of hardware and software, writing Modern C++ for Linux targets while leveraging Python for test automation
• This is a hardware heavy role; you should be comfortable bringing up boards, debugging signals with an oscilloscope, and writing defensive code that ensures safety and performance
• Embedded Development: Write efficient, robust C++ for Embedded Linux platforms. You know when to follow the rules and when to think laterally to squeeze out performance
• Agile Execution: Work within an agile sprint driven framework to iterate quickly with short planning and development cycles
• Hardware Interface: Write drivers and manage communications over common interlinks (Examples: CAN, Ethernet, TCP/IP, UART). You aren't afraid to reverse-engineer a protocol or write a custom driver if the standard one fails
• Deep-Dive Debugging: Get your hands dirty with hardware integration and bring-up. You will troubleshoot signal integrity and protocol weirdness using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, or network sniffers
• Resilient Design: Design software with a safety-first mindset. You anticipate edge cases and write defensive code that ensures deterministic behavior, even when assumptions are violated or the hardware does something unexpected
