Senior Embedded Software Engineer (Onsite)

Senior Embedded Platform Software EngineerDo you want to be part of an innovative, forward-thinking, and highly motivated engineering team developing the next generation of avionics processing platforms? The Advanced Processing Architectures Software organization delivers embedded processing solutions used across a wide range of safety-critical commercial and military avionics systems. Our team is responsible for the development, verification, certification, and long-term sustainment of advanced processing and graphics capabilities that support the highest standards of reliability and performance.We are seeking a Senior Embedded Platform Software Engineer to join our foundation software team. In this role, you will contribute to the development of platform control software that enables secure, deterministic, and robust operation of custom avionics processing ASICs or advanced MPSoC devices. You will work across key avionics capabilities including silicon initialization flows, secure boot integration, early-boot software, platform security, hardware bring-up, system health monitoring, and fault-detection mechanisms. This position requires close collaboration with hardware, systems, and embedded software teams to ensure safe, reliable system behavior across the complete avionics lifecycle.What You Will Do:Develop embedded platform software supporting processor control, power-management flows, and ASIC state coordinationImplement and integrate secure boot orchestration components, cryptographic validation routines, and platform trust enforcementDesign, implement, and bring up low-level drivers, HAL layers, diagnostics, and platform initialization softwareWork extensively in virtual development environments (simulation, emulation, virtual platforms, FPGA prototypes) before hardware availabilityWork with and oversee subcontract suppliers responsible for custom bootloader and early-boot software developmentReview, validate, and integrate supplier deliverables (bootloaders, BSP components, startup sequences) into the platform software stackCollaborate with OS and BSP vendors to integrate and configure RTOS componentsDebug and root-cause hardware/software interaction issuesWork within pipelined build and test development environments (e.g., automated build systems, CI/CD pipelines, continuous testing frameworks)Identify opportunities to optimize development workflows, improve efficiency, and introduce innovative tools or methodsDocument designs, contribute to coding standards, and support cross-functional integration activitiesMentor junior engineers and contribute to a positive, collaborative team dynamicQualifications You Must Have:Typically requires a degree in Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM) and minimum 5 years prior relevant experience or an Advanced Degree in a related field and minimum 3 years of experienceExperience developing embedded software for complex SoCs or custom ASIC architecturesProficiency in C/C++ and embedded systems designExperience working in virtual development environments such as simulation, emulationHands-on experience with board bring-up, hardware abstraction layers, diagnostics, and driver developmentUnderstanding of secure boot flows, key validation mechanisms, and trusted platform initializationSolid understanding of ASIC/SoC architectures, register maps, interrupts, reset logic, and hardware control interfacesExperience with RTOS environmentsDemonstrated ability to think creatively, propose novel solutions, and identify efficienciesHighly self-motivated, team-driven, and committed to delivering high-quality technical workWhat We OfferMedical, dental, and vision insuranceThree weeks of vacation for newly hired employeesGenerous 401(k) plan that includes employer matching funds and separate employer retirement contribution, including a Lifetime Income Strategy optionTuition reimbursement programStudent Loan Repayment ProgramLife insurance and disability coverageOptional coverages you can buy pet insurance, home and auto insurance, additional life and accident insurance, critical illness insurance, group legal, ID theft protectionBirth, adoption, parental leave benefitsOvia Health, fertility, and family planningAdoption AssistanceAutism BenefitEmployee Assistance Plan, including up to 10 free counseling sessionsHealthy You Incentives, wellness rewards programDoctor on Demand, virtual doctor visitsBright Horizons, child and elder care servicesTeladoc Medical Experts, second opinion programAnd more!
