Embedded Engineer

Real-Time Software Engineer (C/C++) Atlanta GA (Hybrid) Full-TimeSummary: The Embedded Real-Time Software Engineer is responsible for developing hard real-time embedded systems software.Project/Unit DescriptionThe Applied Systems Laboratory (ASL) Systems Integration Division (SID) supports systems integration, system design, and product development projects for the Department of Defense (DoD) manned and unmanned systems. SID research military systems specializing in avionics, electronic warfare, autonomous systems, intelligence systems, and tactical communication/datalink systems. The SID team's engineering roles include Systems Engineering, Algorithm Engineering, Datalink Engineering, and Embedded Software Engineering.Job PurposeThe Embedded Real-Time Software Engineer is responsible for developing hard real-time embedded systems software. The Embedded Real-Time Software Engineer designs, implements, and tests solutions executing on limited-resource hardware, where the engineer develops software that interfaces to real-time operating systems, device drivers, and board devices. The Embedded Real-Time Software Engineer understands the complexity of allocating hardware board devices, manages hardware device access, architects for software scheduling and low latency, controls system states and modes, manages systems components status and health, and develops domain-specific applications. The Embedded Real-Time Software Engineer performs full software development lifecycle tasks, applies disciplined software development processes, utilizes safety and security unique processes and designs, and incorporates open system software frameworks. The Embedded Real-Time Software Engineer is proficient in programming languages for real-time computing applications, such as C and C++, and demonstrates knowledge in software development principles, computer operating systems, Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD), DevOps, Application Programming Interface (API) development, container development, and distributed systems. The Real-Time Software Engineer also works as part of a broad team of researchers to innovate new concepts, identify technology stakeholders, and execute challenging research in the national interest.
