Software Engineer

Job Description:

We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer to support the development of embedded software and algorithms used in highprecision inertial navigation systems based on Ring Laser Gyro (RLG) and Fiber Optic Gyro (FOG) technologies. This role involves implementing realtime signal processing, control loops, calibration routines, and systemlevel software that enable worldclass navigation performance. The ideal candidate will have strong analytical skills, experience with embedded development, and a passion for building reliable, highperformance systems that operate in demanding environments.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop embedded software for realtime gyro control, signal processing, and navigation algorithms.
• Implement and optimize digital filtering, bias estimation, scalefactor compensation, and errorcorrection routines.
• Collaborate with systems, electrical, and mechanical engineers to integrate software with RLG/FOG hardware and electronics.
• Support development of calibration, alignment, and production test software for inertial sensors and subsystems.
• Conduct software verification, unit testing, hardwareintheloop testing, and performance validation.
• Participate in code reviews, architecture discussions, and continuous improvement of software development practices.
• Troubleshoot systemlevel issues involving embedded code, sensor behavior, and hardware/software interactions.
• Contribute to documentation including requirements, design descriptions, test procedures, and verification reports.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or related field; a master's degree is preferred.
• 5-10 years of experience in embedded software development or realtime systems.
• Proficiency in C/C++ for embedded targets and familiarity with realtime operating systems (RTOS).
• Understanding of digital signal processing fundamentals, control systems, or sensor fusion concepts.
• Experience with lab tools such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and embedded debugging interfaces (JTAG, SWD).
• Strong problemsolving skills and ability to work collaboratively in a multidisciplinary environment.
• Excellent communication and documentation abilities.

Preferred Skills:

• Experience with inertial sensors, navigation algorithms, or precision instrumentation.
• Familiarity with RLG/FOG operation, optical sensing principles, or inertial measurement units (IMUs).
• Knowledge of MATLAB, Simulink, or Python for modeling, analysis, and algorithm development. Ada programming is a plus.
• Experience with ARMbased microcontrollers, DSPs, or FPGAbased processing environments.
• Exposure to aerospace/defense software standards (DO178, MILSTD1553, or similar).
• Background in Kalman filtering, inertial navigation mechanization, or sensor fusion frameworks.
• Experience with Agile development workflows, including task management in Jira.

If you're passionate about embedded software and eager to work on cuttingedge inertial navigation technologies, we'd like to hear from you. Apply today and join a team shaping the future of precision navigation.
