The engineer will primarily focus on the software implementation and testing of closed-loop control systems for gimbaled systems.A working knowledge of control theory is not required, as control-loop algorithms will be developed by the Control Systems Engineering team.Primary ResponsibilitiesImplement real-time control system designs in C++ using well-written and efficient coding practices. Implement communication protocols to interface with and control hardware such as motors, gyros, encoders, and power supplies. Understand and apply concepts related to timing, concurrency, and thread prioritization. Implement BIT/FIT functionality for gimbal systems. Develop and troubleshoot software in Linux operating systems. Assist senior engineers with creating and assembling prototypes. Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure product functionality throughout challenging Design Validation Testing (DVT) activities. Support indoor and outdoor data collection events. Present test results and findings to engineering teams and senior leadership. Work on systems throughout all stages of development, from prototyping through root-cause analysis. Assist with laboratory equipment and experiment setup. Support calibration cycles, including equipment maintenance. Research, order, and set up new engineering equipment. Conduct technical web research and surveys as needed. Support engineering documentation, including data files, reports, drawings, and presentations. Perform other related engineering, analysis, documentation, and reporting activities as required.
