Building the aircraft and technologies to define the next era of aerospace and defense. Backed by AlleyCorp.
About the role
We are seeking a resourceful hands-on Embedded Software Engineer to build high-reliability real-time systems. You will operate at the intersection of hardware and software, writing Modern C++ for Linux targets while leveraging Python for test automation. This is a hardware heavy role; you should be comfortable bringing up boards, debugging signals with an oscilloscope, and writing defensive code that ensures safety and performance. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Embedded Development: Write efficient, robust C++ for Embedded Linux platforms. You know when to follow the rules and when to think laterally to squeeze out performance
- Agile Execution : Work within an agile sprint driven framework to iterate quickly with short planning and development cycles
- Deep-Dive Debugging: Get your hands dirty with hardware integration and bring-up. You will troubleshoot signal integrity and protocol weirdness using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, or network sniffers
- Experience: 2–5 years of embedded software engineering
- Core Languages: Strong proficiency in modern C++ (11/14/17/20) for production code. Fluency in Python and Bash for data manipulation, testing, and prototyping
- Mindset: You are comfortable working with ambiguity. You don’t need a manual for everything, you can figure out how things work (or why they don't) and devise creative workarounds to keep the project moving
