Job Description

We are seeking a Lead Embedded Systems Engineer to support the development of safety-critical software for aero engine control systems, including FADEC and PHMU platforms. This role combines hands-on embedded software development with technical leadership, project execution, and cross-functional collaboration across controls, hardware, systems, and certification teams.

Key Responsibilities

  • Delivering safety-critical engine control solutions for major OEMs

  • Plan, estimate, track, and report software design tasks, schedules, and resources.

  • Drive technical decision-making, risk management, and issue resolution.

  • Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams and external stakeholders.

  • Interface with customers to support integration and debugging at test facilities.

  • Participate in Agile workflows and present progress to integrated product teams.

  • Develop FADEC/PHMU hardware, operating system, communication, and interface architectures.

  • Decompose system-level and customer requirements into detailed software requirements and designs.

  • Review and approve software requirements and design artifacts within an Agile framework.

  • Develop low-level embedded C software for real-time target processors.

  • Perform hardware–software integration, debugging, and system-level testing.

  • Support configuration management, issue tracking, and continuous process improvement.

  • Produce and support certification documentation for safety-critical software (e.g., DO-178C).

  • Capture and maintain embedded software workflows (ESW) aligned with corporate policies and procedures.

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s or master’s degree in aerospace engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field with 7+ years of relevant engineering experience.

  • U.S. Citizenship required due to the nature of the work.

  • Experience working on aero engine controls or FADEC software teams.

  • Hands-on experience with DO-178C or equivalent certification standards.

  • Strong expertise in control system software architecture, requirements, and design.

  • Proficiency in C; assembly and scripting languages are a plus.

  • Experience using logic analyzers, emulators, and specialized test hardware.
