As a Software Engineer III, you'll be crucial in ensuring smooth operations and supporting our diverse team. S&C Electric, a global leader for power reliability products is looking for a Software Engineer III. Included in this position is the support of intelligent embedded software devices including microprocessor-based switch and fault interrupting controls. Candidates must have a strong background in design and development of embedded software on custom electronics.
Key Responsibilities:
  • Design embedded application firmware for microprocessor-based switch and fault interrupting controls.
  • Contribute to the development of architecture design, software specifications, project schedules, task and project completion time estimates, and test plans.
  • Develop, optimize, and build FPGA-based (Verilog) focusing on high-throughput data, timing, and efficient resource utilization.
  • Perform FPGA simulation, verification, and timing analyses using vendor-specific tools (e.g., Lattice Diamond, Microchip Libero).
  • Develop embedded C/C++ firmware for low power designs, including hardware device drivers.
  • Develop and support PC-based engineering test tools as needed.
  • Create, execute, and automate unit tests.
  • Review and implement product requirements.
  • Participate in Agile scrum and Kanban meetings and peer reviews of source code.
  • Investigate new technologies and create design documents as necessary.
  • Collaborate with hardware engineers to meet system-level performance and reliability requirements and test engineers to support verification and validation of products at the module and system level.
  • Work with product management and field services to resolve firmware-related customer issues.
  • Occasional travel (5%) to one of these locations may be required for development, system integration/testing, and debugging. In this position, you will report to the Embedded Firmware Manager.

What You'll Need to Succeed:
Requirements:
  • BS degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent.
  • 5-7 years of experience developing C/C++ firmware applications and device drivers for low power designs.
  • 3+ years of professional experience developing FPGA designs in VHDL or Verilog, with experience in simulation, verification, and timing analysis, using tools like Lattice Diamond or Microchip Libero.
  • Strong understanding of FPGA architecture, timing constraints, and resource utilization.
  • Demonstrated working knowledge of programming principles in C/C++.
  • Familiarity with real-time operation and low power microprocessor modes.
  • Embedded software development experience with and without an operating system.
  • Experience with digital multimeters, oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers to validate and debug design behavior.
  • Experience working with and writing drivers for common peripherals and interconnects, such as GPIO, I2C, SPI, ADC, DAC, UART, DMA, or flash memory.
  • Experience with configuration management/process tools: Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket/Git.
  • Experience using generative AI tools, such as Github Copilot, to assist productivity.
  • Being a team player is essential.
  • Excellent written and verbal communications skills.
  • Technical leadership abilities with good interpersonal skills.
  • Continuous learner and self-starter.

Preferred:
  • Experience with signal processing (FFT, DFT, waveform analysis) and actuator/motor control.
  • Experience with embedded Linux, Zephyr, or other real time operating systems.
  • Experience with Jenkins, Docker, and Python.
  • Experience in one or more of the following areas: electric grid automation and/or control for utility applications, peer-to-peer communications techniques, wired and wireless communications experience (Ethernet, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi).
