We are looking for a talented Software and Firmware Engineer to design, develop, and support embedded software and firmware solutions across our aircraft cabin lighting product portfolio. The successful candidate will be involved in the full software development life cycle, working on innovative, high-performance systems with a particular focus on reliability, efficiency, and real-time operation.
This is an excellent opportunity for an engineer passionate about embedded systems and software-hardware integration, who is looking to contribute to technically challenging projects in a dynamic engineering environment.
Key Responsibilities:
* Design, develop, and test embedded software and firmware for microcontrollers, processors, and programmable logic devices.
* Develop low-level drivers, communication protocols, and real-time control software.
* Write reliable, maintainable, and efficient code in languages such as C.
* Participate in system architecture design, requirements analysis, and hardware-software integration.
* Debug hardware/software interactions and resolve firmware issues throughout the development and production lifecycle.
* Support the development of firmware update mechanisms, bootloaders, and security protocols.
* Contribute to product verification and validation, including unit testing, integration testing, and system testing.
* Develop and maintain technical documentation, including software specifications, design descriptions, and user manuals.
* Collaborate closely with multi-disciplinary teams including Hardware, Systems, QA, and Product Engineering.
Requirements:
* Degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science, Electronics, or a related engineering discipline.
* Proven experience in software and firmware development for embedded systems.
* Strong proficiency in C and C++ for embedded applications.
* Experience with real-time operating systems (RTOS) or bare-metal firmware development.
* Solid understanding of microcontrollers, digital interfaces (I2C, SPI, UART, CAN), and hardware-level debugging.
* Proficient with common electronics lab equipment such as protocol/logic analysers, oscilloscopes, etc.
* Familiarity with version control systems (e.g. Git) and Agile development methodologies.
* Strong problem-solving and analytical skills with the ability to debug complex systems.
* Excellent communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively across engineering disciplines.
* Experience with safety-critical or high-integrity software development (e.g. DO-178C, ISO 26262, IEC 61508).
* Experience with FPGA or low-level hardware programming.
* Knowledge of continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines.
Personal Attributes:
* Methodical and detail oriented.
* Self-motivated with a proactive approach to problem-solving.
* Able to manage multiple projects and priorities effectively.
* Collaborative team player with a willingness to share knowledge and support others.
