ENVEA is one of the world's leading companies in the field of environmental and industrial instrumentation, analysis and measurement. Since it was founded in 1978, ENVEA has designed, manufactured and marketed equipment for the continuous measurement of ambient air, emissions and industrial processes, as well as data processing software. A true flagship of French Industry and a pioneer in technology, throughout it history ENVEA has placed environmental protection and sustainable innovation at the heart of the development of its measuring instruments, its startegy and its founding values
As the R&D Embedded Software Engineer you will be a member of an international R&D team who develop sophisticated sensors to monitor environmental emissions and to optimise industrial processes. Our centre of expertise is focussed on the measurement of dust at very low concentrations (mg/m3), the mass flow of solids at high concentrations (tons/hour) and flow of exhaust gases, all in harsh industrial environments. This is achieved by using a range of technologies such as laser scattering, electrodynamic, capacitance, microwave and ultrasonic.
About the Role
You will work in a team of scientists and engineers to develop analogue and digital hardware with embedded software for innovative sensors to measure dust, solids, and flow. You will be responsible for the full software lifecycle from system design, firmware implementation, testing and deployment to hardware. You will implement and test metrological algorithms and take certified emission monitoring (QAL, AMS) and functional safety (SIL) into account.
You will maintain existing products throughout their life cycle; this includes revising the embedded software components as required by hardware design changes.
You will participate in the development, testing and deployment of software and hardware for PC/tablet/smartphone systems.
You will create and maintain technical documentation in the form of design, test and functional documents, which can be used as a basis for the creation of manuals and the approval of the devices
