Job Summary
In this role, you will design robust embedded system architectures and interfaces to hardware components while developing embedded software in C/C++ for high-throughput signal processing.
Job Technologies
Your role in the team
- Translate system requirements into robust embedded system architectures, including partitioning across MCU/FPGA/ASIC and software.
- Select suitable components (MCUs/SoCs, ADC/DACs, clocks, power, memories) and define interfaces to implement the architecture.
- Design and integrate interfaces to digital (e.g., telemetry/telecommand buses) and analog (e.g., photodiodes) peripherals and components.
- Develop high-throughput digital signal processing units for real-time acquisition, filtering and processing of digital data streams.
- Develop embedded software (C/C++ on bare-metal and/or RTOS), including boot, drivers, middleware, and application logic.
- Collaborate closely with FPGA, hardware, and optical engineering teams to deliver complex quantum-cryptography solutions.
- Create documentation: requirements, interface control documents, design specs, and verification plans.
- Establish quality practices: code reviews, static analysis, unit/integration testing, and CI for firmware.
- Contribute to system security, reliability, EMC/EMI, and DfX considerations throughout the lifecycle.
