Embedded Software Engineer

🚀 Embedded Software Engineer – Autonomous Systems

📍 Melbourne, FL (100% Onsite | Relocation Assistance Considered)

We’re looking for a highly experienced Embedded Software Engineer to help design and deliver real-time software for next-generation autonomous systems operating in mission-critical environments.

This is a high-impact opportunity for someone who thrives at the intersection of:

✔ Hands-on C++ development

✔ Embedded/real-time systems

✔ Software architecture

✔ Autonomy, navigation, and AI-enabled platforms

The ideal candidate is both:

🔹 A strong hands-on engineer

🔹 A system-level thinker who can influence architecture and technical direction

🔧 What You’ll Be Doing:

• Design and develop real-time embedded software in modern C++

• Architect scalable and modular software systems for autonomous platforms

• Build navigation, guidance, control, and autonomy-related components

• Integrate AI/ML capabilities into embedded or edge environments

• Work across hardware interfaces, middleware, and application-layer autonomy logic

• Collaborate closely with systems, hardware, and test engineering teams

• Drive architecture decisions around interfaces, timing, data flow, and resource constraints

• Support debugging, optimization, and performance tuning in real-time environments

✅ Required Experience:

• 8+ years in embedded software development

• Extensive hands-on C++ experience

• Embedded Linux development experience

• Strong background in software architecture and system design

• Experience with multithreading, synchronization, and concurrency

⭐ Nice-to-Have Experience:

• Autonomous navigation systems (robotics, aerospace, automotive, marine, etc.)

• AI/ML within embedded systems

• Guidance, Navigation & Control (GNC) algorithms

• Edge inference, sensor fusion, or perception systems

• Real-time autonomy or application-level autonomy logic

• Experience with communication protocols (CAN, DDS, UDP/TCP, serial, etc.)

• Safety-critical or high-reliability systems

🧠 What We’re Looking For:

• Someone who owns problems end-to-end

• Strong systems-thinking mindset

• Comfortable operating in fast-moving, ambiguous environments

• Ability to balance architecture vs. execution and speed vs. reliability
