Software Engineer (EMB), Sr. Staff
Worker TypeRegularJob DescriptionSummaryThe Sr.
Staff Software Engineer (Embedded) has the opportunity to lead and develop a variety of innovative unmanned and robotic systems for multiple defense and commercial applications.
The Embedded Software Engineer writes functional software for deployment on embedded devices and systems like aircraft and payloads and have the opportunity to test out those devices in flight test environments.
This requires the engineer to design, develop, code, test and debug system software as well as analyze and enhance efficiency, stability and scalability of the software on particular devices.
There is a mix of full life-cycle development as well as a need to use existing software code base to expand the capabilities to match specific program requirements.
Position ResponsibilitiesWrites and tests software to support integration of sensors and embedded processors into aircraft (such as autopilots, payloads, software defined radios or other functional components) or other robotic systemsDesigns and implements software for prototypes and products using established AeroVironment and industry developed tools and practices.
Ensure good configuration control and management of softwareLeads in writing of system requirements, system test plans, diagnostic tools, and in validation testing of software.
Assist with hardware selection and recommend processing, memory and storage needs of systemsLeads development of rapid prototyping and conceptual level testing and will require estimating time to develop software and scoping the depth of the development with project/program management to fit timeline and budget constraintsWorks closely with other engineering disciplines.
Focused on getting the job doneLeads and supports transition of development software to production environments and to certification.
Participates in multi-disciplinary development teamsDevelops proof of concept capability demonstrations.
Conducts and supports design reviewsContributes to AV's software development process in developing quality codeWorks on significant and unique issues where analysis of situations or data requires evaluation of intangiblesOther duties as assignedBasic Qualifications (Required Skills & Experience)BSc.
