NEED TO HAVE:

ENGINE EXPERIENCE (2+ YEARS)

BE OPEN TO WRITING REQUIREMENTS/REQUIREMENT MANAGEMENT

-MATLAB/SIMULINK KNOWLEDGE

-C/C++ KNOWLEDGE

Summary:

The main function of an embedded software engineer is to apply the principles of computer science and mathematical analysis to the design, development, testing, and evaluation of the embedded software and systems that make computers work. A typical embedded software engineer researches, designs, develops and tests operating systems-level software, compilers, and network distribution software for medical, industrial, military, communications, aerospace, business, scientific and general computing applications.

Job Responsibilities:

  • Design and implement software of embedded devices and systems from requirements to production and commercial deployment for product lines.
  • Write and code logical and physical database descriptions and specify identifiers of database to management system or direct others in coding descriptions.
  • Analyze and enhance efficiency, stability and scalability of system resources
  • Review project requests describing database user needs to estimate time and cost required to accomplish project.

Skills:

  • Verbal and written communication skills, problem solving skills, customer service and interpersonal skills.
  • Knowledge of reading schematics and data sheets for components
  • Basic knowledge of the full software development lifecycle: from business/systems analysis, through requirements gathering and functional specification authoring, to development, testing and delivery.
  • Basic ability to troubleshoot issues and make system changes as needed to resolve issue.
  • Basic knowledge of computer hardware and software. Solid programming experience in C or C++
  • Knowledge of computer development software as it relates to embedded systems, such as SQL, Visual Basic, etc.

  • Bachelor's degree in computer science, software engineering or relevant field required.
  • 2-4 years of experience required.

Typical Day or Week in the Role

  • Typical task breakdown and rhythm
  • Interaction level with team
  • Work environment description

Typical task breakdown:

  • Software cadence and you will support the software development process through requirements interpretation, software design, documentation and validation. During that time this position will intake software control strategy ideas and models, develop software requirements documentation and then advise on software design. Then aid in the development of the software validation plan and execution.
  • Electronic hardware requirements development usually run 6-12 months. This work will work with system engineers to develop a list of requirements needed for a project.

Interaction with team:

This position will work with engine product groups, ICS system engineers and ICS software developers.
