Job summary

SEAKR Engineering seeks a mid-level Embedded Software Engineer to own feature development in a fast-paced environment. You will work on low-level systems programming, with autonomy on critical projects and direct involvement in system integration.

The role emphasizes C/C++ development, OS concepts, and networking within constrained embedded environments. You will collaborate on space-grade electronics, contribute to design decisions, and operate largely onsite with some hybrid flexibility.

Qualifications

• 3-5 years of professional experience in embedded systems development.
• Bachelor's degree in Engineering or Computer Science or equivalent experience.
• Solid understanding of fundamental OS concepts (kernel vs. user space, task scheduling, memory management, synchronization).
• Proficiency in Python, C and/or C++, including object-oriented principles.
• Familiarity with networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, MAC addresses, packet inspection tools).
• Demonstrated ability to solve problems independently.
• Proven track record of learning from specification documents and adapting to new protocols or standards.

Responsibilities

• Design and develop embedded software using C/C++ within constrained environments, defining technical approaches.
• Implement state machines and handle asynchronous events (e.g., interrupts, signals).
• Work with operating system concepts including process scheduling, resource sharing, and synchronization.
• Integrate networking capabilities into embedded devices (basic IP/MAC layer knowledge required).
