Job Description
The Mayo Clinic Special Purpose Processor Development Group (SPPDG) needs a limited tenure Firmware Test Engineer for the test and validation of complex embedded systems. As part of this R&D team, the candidate would be expected to perform moderately complex engineering functions which may include embedded software test and development, hardware testing and verification, and software for test. In addition to specific tests, the individual will be responsible for configuring and verifying collections of physiologic monitors, up to a hundred devices, to support studies and field tests. Specializations include real-time systems, especially ultra-low power portable systems, embedded C code implementations for various architectures. The candidate would be expected to apply technical knowledge and experience to perform moderately complex engineering tasks using state-of-the-art computerized tools as well as learn new tools and techniques; provide knowledge of technology advances related to assigned tasking and area(s) of specialization; participate in design reviews; obtain materials needed to complete assignments; analyze data; document testing and present results to internal audiences. Some travel may be required. This position works under limited supervision to develop tests from provided functional requirements. Completed assignments are reviewed by a supervisor or senior technical group members.
Qualifications
Requires a Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering and minimum of 2 years of engineering experience.
Additional qualifications:
The successful candidate is expected to have experience in firmware development, test, and verification. This experience should include familiarity with the following: basic lab equipment (power supplies, multimeters, oscilloscopes, etc.), logic analyzers, embedded IDEs, C programming language, embedded architectures, serial communication protocols, and general firmware and debug skills. The ability to generate a test based on a description or functional requirement, further, an expectation to document test plans, test executions, and present results. The successful candidate must be able to convey technical details to team members.
Preferred qualifications include familiarity with ARM Cortex M4 core, use and debug of serial communication protocols specifically UART, I2C, SPI. Experience with Python language especially for testing. Familiarity with version management software such as Git. RF communications debug, test, and verification. Experience working in multithreaded RTOS environments. Experience and/or interest in applying engineering knowledge to physiologic signals such as photoplethysmography, electrocardiograms, and activity monitoring.
Additional desirable skills include the ability to document instructions to aid in programming, debug, test, and verification. Familiarity with embedded coding standards and the ability to apply these standards. Experience participating in code and design reviews. Ability to analyze data quickly and determine best path forward for debug. Ability to debug embedded systems in real time. Experience using debuggers to set breakpoints, watch variables, analyze stack usage, and monitor RTOS mechanisms.
Must be capable of obtaining and maintaining a Secret clearance and adhere to security requirements as described in the NISPOM. Visa sponsorship is not available for this position.
