- Skill in relevant languages and systems, such as Python, C, C++, bare-metal or RTOS development, embedded Linux, VHDL, Verilog, or SystemVerilog.
- Expertise in using debugging hardware, including hardware simulators, oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers.
- Demonstrated capability to manage the entire product development process, starting from initial requirements through to deployment.
- Professional history within hardware-heavy sectors such as semiconductors, aerospace, robotics, or automotive to handle complex hardware-software relationships and manufacturing limitations.
Responsibilities
- Utilize your deep technical knowledge to address intricate challenges within physical hardware environments.
- Analyze and audit firmware, RTL designs, flight software, and frameworks for hardware-in-the-loop testing.
- Examine architectural compromises, focusing on memory management, fault tolerance, timing constraints, and real-time performance.
- Detect concurrency bugs, interface malfunctions, and implementation flaws while creating structured test scenarios and evaluation benchmarks.
- Deliver precise technical commentary based on your professional background to guarantee that solutions are practical, reliable, and effective for production hardware.
Benefits & Perks
- Engage in highly complex projects bridging the gap between cutting-edge AI research and advanced hardware platforms.
- Enjoy a flexible work arrangement that allows for remote participation.
- Apply your expert engineering insight to a project with significant technical impact.
