Embedded Software Engineering Intern

As an Embedded Software Engineering Intern, you will design, develop, and test embedded software for flight computers and mission-critical systems. This is a hands-on embedded role - ideal candidates must bring strong proficiency in C programming, experience with microcontrollers, and a proven background in embedded systems development. You'll work closely with hardware and avionics teams to ensure reliable, high-performance software that meets aerospace standards.

• Develop and maintain embedded software for flight computers, with a focus on real-time performance and reliability.
• Write and optimize code inC for microcontrollers
  (ARM Cortex-M or similar).
• Implement drivers, bootloaders, and middleware for peripherals (UART, SPI, I2C, CAN, GPIO).
• Integrate algorithms into embedded applications for navigation, control, and data processing.
• Debug software directly on custom hardware in collaboration with hardware engineers.
• Perform unit, integration, and system-level testing of embedded software.
• Ensure compliance with safety-critical aerospace standards and real-time system requirements.
• Participate in system architecture design and software code reviews.

• Must be aU.S. Person
  (U.S. citizen, U.S. national, lawful permanent resident, or an individual granted asylum/refugee status, in accordance with ITAR/EAR regulations).
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field (or equivalent experience).
• Expertise in C programming for embedded systems (must-have).
• Strong hands-on experience with microcontrollers (ARM Cortex-M or similar).
• Proven track record in embedded system design, coding, and debugging.
• Experience with RTOS (e.g., FreeRTOS) for scheduling and task management.
• Familiarity with debugging tools such as JTAG, SWD, oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers.
• Strong understanding of deterministic, real-time software design.
• Excellent teamwork and communication skills.

• Experience with NXP i.MX RT series or similar high-performance microcontrollers.
• Familiarity with aerospace software standards (e.g., DO-178C).
• Experience with embedded Linux or other real-time operating systems.
• Knowledge of avionics or flight computer architectures.
• Proficiency with Git and CI/CD for embedded software.
• Assembly language programming experience for optimization.
• Familiarity with Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GNC) applications.
• Passion for our mission to revolutionize wildfire mitigation through autonomous aerospace technology.

Full Time:
