2. Abstract complex technical detail to understand system behaviours
3. Develop software plug-ins to support and enhance simulation capability
4. Work within Linux environments and program in C/C++
5. Integrate hardware and software systems, troubleshoot interfaces, and optimise performance
6. Analyse performance results and produce clear technical reports
What We're Looking For
We welcome applicants with broad engineering experience and an interest in real-time systems. Skills in the following areas would be advantageous:
7. Real-time software design
8. Linux operating systems
9. C/C++ programming
10. Systems integration and debugging
11. Performance analysis of complex systems
About You
