Embedded Rtos Jobs in Arcadia, CA (NOW HIRING)

Main Responsibilities

• Lead firmware team through V model product development cycles
• Direct the standard method of pursuing application development and create, define, or choose an application framework
• Observe and understand the broader system environment and maintain knowledge of other applications in the organization
• Comprehend the functions of each component within the application, understand the interactions and dependencies among components
• Define and drive the firmware architecture and development flow, including feature assessments and solution design, project scoping, pre-development planning, and continuous improvement strategies
• Provide technical guidance and mentorship to developers and engineers
• Define and develop modular and reusable firmware across Banks product portfolio including signal processing and modification, instrumentation and DAQ systems, graphical UI, and mobile app integration
• Develop control systems from conception to implementation and validation
• Author subsystem block diagrams and lead subsystem reviews through all product development
• Architect key blocks of firmware that interact with low level hardware features. Develop product source code in C or using MATLAB/Simulink when needed
• Collaborate with other engineers to enhance or create a simulation model/platform for analyzing, optimizing, and troubleshooting various aspects of the product
• Work within cross-functional teams to develop control-oriented models using both first principles and system identification techniques, and to resolve controls-related challenges
• Address software issues in vehicles/prototypes and aid in integrating features into the controller code base.
• Collaborate with hardware team to ensure flawless integration of firmware with the underlying system
• Direct design of diagnostic interfaces for the controller
• Understand functional safety principles (e.g. ISO26262) and participate in functional safety analyses of complex vehicle subsystems
• Develop comprehensive test plans and conduct thorough testing, debugging, performance optimization of firmware on the vehicle to validate functionality, stability, and performance under various conditions. Assist in feature calibration to ensure reliability and quality.  
• Lead and participate in design reviews for new content, code reviews, and other engineering activities to ensure high-quality firmware development, and that coding standards are being followed.
• Communicate concepts and guidelines to the development team; oversee the progress of the development team to ensure consistency with the initial design and to ensure the software meets all quality, security, extensibility, and modifiability; approve the final product before it is launched
• Manage project timelines, resource allocation, and coordinate with stakeholders to ensure timely delivery of firmware solutions
• Document work in reports and presentations to all levels of management
