Senior Embedded Firmware Engineer - Power Electronics

Blue Origin; Seattle (WA); Sur place; USD 198 000 - 277 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

Blue Origin is seeking an Embedded Software Engineer to design, develop, test, and maintain firmware for embedded control platforms used in power conversion and power electronics systems. You’ll work closely with hardware, controls, and power electronics engineers to deliver reliable real-time software for microcontrollers, DSPs, and FPGA-based platforms.

The role focuses on low-level drivers, sensor interfaces, PWM, and protection circuits, with hands‑on debugging in the lab.

Qualifications

• Experience developing embedded software or firmware for microcontrollers, DSPs, or FPGA-based systems.
• Strong programming experience in C/C++ for real‑time embedded systems.
• Understanding of ADCs, PWM generation, timers, interrupts, communication peripherals, and low‑level hardware interfaces.
• Experience working with voltage, current, and temperature sensor data in embedded systems.
• Knowledge of real‑time software design, debugging, and hardware/software integration.
• Ability to read schematics and work closely with hardware engineers during board bring‑up and troubleshooting.
• Hands‑on experience using embedded development tools, debuggers, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and lab equipment.
• BS Engineering and 7+ years relevant industry experience.

Responsabilités

• Develop embedded software and firmware for microcontrollers, DSPs, and FPGA-based control platforms.
• Implement low-level drivers, control interfaces, communication protocols, and real-time software for power electronics systems.
• Interface with ADCs, voltage sensors, current sensors, temperature sensors, PWM modules, timers, gate drivers, and protection circuits.
• Implement software for sensor acquisition, scaling, filtering, calibration, diagnostics, and fault handling.
• Support real-time control execution for power converters, inverters, motor drives, and related power electronics applications.
• Develop and debug communication interfaces such as CAN, SPI, I2C, UART, Ethernet, and other embedded protocols.
• Work closely with hardware, controls, and power electronics engineers during board bring‑up, integration, and validation.
• Debug embedded software issues related to timing, interrupts, ADC readings, PWM synchronization, communications, and fault responses.
• Perform software testing, hardware‑in‑the‑loop testing, lab validation, and documentation.
