• Develop embedded applications for cryogenic pumps, chillers and compressors
• Own firmware from requirements through implementation, integration and system testing
• Develop multi-threaded embedded applications
• Work with and improve existing/legacy codebases
• Develop test suites and automated engineering validation tests
• Carry out hands‑on testing using real equipment in a lab environment

What you’ll need
