Entry Level Embedded Firmware Engineer information

What does an entry level embedded firmware engineer do?

An Entry Level Embedded Firmware Engineer is responsible for designing, developing, and testing low-level software that runs on hardware devices, such as microcontrollers and embedded systems. They work closely with hardware engineers to ensure that the firmware correctly interfaces with the hardware components. Typical tasks include writing code in languages like C or C++, debugging firmware, conducting unit tests, and assisting in hardware bring-up. Entry-level engineers often learn on the job and may help maintain or update existing firmware as needed.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an entry level embedded firmware engineer?

To thrive as an Entry Level Embedded Firmware Engineer, you need a strong grasp of C/C++ programming, embedded systems concepts, and a relevant engineering degree such as Electrical or Computer Engineering. Familiarity with microcontroller development kits, debuggers, oscilloscopes, and version control systems like Git is typically required. Problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and effective teamwork are crucial soft skills for this role. These skills ensure reliable firmware development, seamless integration with hardware, and successful collaboration within multidisciplinary engineering teams.

What are some common challenges faced by entry level embedded firmware engineers during their first projects?

Entry-level embedded firmware engineers often encounter challenges such as understanding complex hardware interfaces, debugging low-level code, and adapting to strict resource constraints like limited memory and processing power. Collaborating closely with hardware engineers and learning to interpret hardware schematics can also be initially daunting. However, most teams provide mentorship and code reviews to help new engineers build confidence and develop their problem-solving skills in a supportive environment.

Job description

Working across the globe, V2X builds smart solutions designed to integrate physical and digital infrastructure from base to battlefield. We bring 120 years of successful mission support to improve security, streamline logistics, and enhance readiness. Aligned around a shared purpose, our $3.9B company and 16,000 people work alongside our clients, here and abroad, to tackle their most complex challenges with integrity, respect, responsibility, and professionalism.

V2X is seeking an entry level Embedded Firmware Engineer I (T01) to join the Embedded Solutions team within the Software Department. Embedded Solutions is a core, cross‑disciplinary engineering function that focuses on designing, integrating, and optimizing secure, high‑performance embedded systems. This includes firmware, FPGA, and electronic product development across multiple defense and aerospace portfolios.

In this role, you will contribute to full lifecycle development of embedded electronics and real‑time firmware/software under the guidance of senior engineers. You will work at the intersection of microcontrollers and SoCs, digital hardware, and real‑time operating environments to support mission‑critical applications such as platform system integration, weapon system integration electronics, and sustainment or modernization efforts.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Develop and debug embedded firmware and software in C/C++ (and Python where appropriate) targeting microcontroller and SoC platforms such as ARM Cortex devices for defense and aerospace systems.
  • Implement and integrate peripheral interfaces and simple device drivers for SPI, I²C, UART, GPIO, and similar real‑time I/O under supervision.
  • Support hardware bring‑up and board‑level verification, working hands‑on in the lab with oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and related test equipment alongside electrical and systems engineers.
  • Assist with integrating real‑time applications on RTOS or bare‑metal platforms, helping to ensure responsiveness, reliability, and deterministic behavior in constrained environments.
  • Contribute to basic FPGA development tasks such as implementing simple logic blocks in VHDL or Verilog, running simulations, and helping with timing constraint updates and IP integration under guidance from senior FPGA engineers.
  • Execute unit and integration tests following established test procedures; record results, log defects, and participate in troubleshooting and root‑cause analysis.
  • Follow best practices and help produce required artifacts such as requirements summaries, architecture or block diagrams, test logs, and release checklists under guidance.
  • Participate in peer code and design reviews and in Agile or phase‑gate activities (for example, standups, technical reviews, and basic estimation discussions) as part of cross‑functional teams using tools such as Azure DevOps, Git, and Microsoft Teams.
