Embedded Software Engineer I - Project Based
Indexed description
This position is a W2 contract employee role with ASI for a defined project period, offering the stability of W2 employment along with access to benefits while you support our autonomous technology programs. As a contract employee, you'll work in a fast-moving, collaborative environment alongside engineers and product teams to help advance practical robotics solutions in the field.
As an Embedded Software Engineer I, you will participate in the full software development lifecycle for embedded systems operating on autonomous compactor robots. You will develop features, diagnose defects, and contribute to software integration across vehicle control, actuator, and sensor systems. This is a role for someone early in their embedded career who writes clean code, learns fast, and wants to work on real autonomous machines in the field.
Responsibilities
- Develop and maintain features for embedded applications on autonomous compactor platforms.
- Diagnose and resolve reported defects across vehicle control, actuator, and sensor systems.
- Participate in systems engineering to support smooth software integration.
- Write understandable, reusable C and C++ code following SOLID principles and design patterns.
- Build and maintain unit, integration, and system simulation tests with a test-first approach.
- Contribute to continuous refactoring and use distributed version control effectively.
- Support fielded systems and collaborate with the team on integration issues.
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
- Experience designing and implementing embedded real-time software systems using C/C++.
- Familiarity with large multithreaded embedded applications running on an RTOS.
- Familiarity with electrical and mechanical systems.
- Experience with communication protocols such as CAN, TCP, UDP, SPI, or RS232 a plus.
- Exposure to ROS/ROS2 or sensor interfacing including GPS, LiDAR, RADAR, or ultrasonics a plus.
- Ability to work in an open, collaborative team environment.
- Ability to remain in a stationary position at a computer workstation for extended periods.
- Ability to operate a computer and other office productivity equipment continuously.
- Ability to communicate and exchange information in person, via phone, and through electronic means.
- Ability to traverse office, lab, data center, and field environments as required.
