Remote Graduate Embedded Software Engineer information

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Remote Graduate Embedded Software Engineer, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Graduate Embedded Software Engineer, you need a solid understanding of C/C++ programming, embedded systems concepts, and a relevant engineering or computer science degree. Familiarity with microcontroller development environments, version control systems like Git, and possibly certifications such as ARM Accredited Engineer are commonly expected. Strong problem-solving skills, self-motivation, and effective remote communication set outstanding candidates apart. These competencies ensure reliable software development, efficient collaboration, and adaptability to the unique challenges of remote embedded engineering work.

What is a Remote Graduate Embedded Software Engineer?

A Remote Graduate Embedded Software Engineer is an entry-level professional who designs, develops, and tests software that runs on embedded systems—such as microcontrollers and specialized hardware—while working remotely. They typically work on firmware, device drivers, and real-time operating systems for products like IoT devices, automotive systems, and consumer electronics. This role is well-suited for recent graduates with a background in computer engineering, electrical engineering, or computer science who are looking to start their careers in embedded systems while enjoying the flexibility of remote work.

What are some common challenges faced by Remote Graduate Embedded Software Engineers, and how can they overcome them?

Remote Graduate Embedded Software Engineers often encounter challenges such as effective communication with cross-functional teams, understanding hardware constraints without physical access to devices, and managing time independently. To overcome these, it's important to proactively seek regular check-ins with mentors, make use of remote debugging tools and simulators, and maintain well-documented code. Building strong organizational habits and leveraging collaborative platforms can greatly improve productivity and team integration.

Job description

At ispace U.S., we're not just going to the Moon-we're redefining how we get there. Our missions push the boundaries of human and robotic exploration, driven by our belief: "Expand our Planet. Expand our Future." By providing cost-effective lunar transportation, we are pioneering a future where space is within reach for scientific discovery, commercial ventures, and sustainable exploration.  

With locations in Japan, Luxembourg, and the United States, ispace is rapidly growing and leading the way in lunar exploration and development. Our U.S. branch is based in Englewood, Colorado, and focuses on high-capacity payload lunar landers designed to support future lunar missions. Our team is made up of innovators, problem-solvers, and visionaries committed to making space more accessible and fostering the next generation of space exploration. 

Let's go to the Moon together! Our team is growing, and we are actively seeking talented individuals who share our passion for space. 

We are seeking a Software & Simulation TestDesign Engineer to architect and lead the development of a unified test software framework and simulation that ensures consistency, scalability, and reliability across global engineering teams. This role is central to establishing standardized testing practices, simulation environments, and automation infrastructure that enable high-confidence validation of mission-critical systems. 

You will define test software across the organization-creating a cohesive ecosystem that spans simulation, hardware-in-the-loop (HIL), integration, and system-level testing-while enabling teams in different regions to operate efficiently within a shared framework. 

Key Responsibilities

Test Framework Architecture: Design and evolve a modular, global test framework supporting unit, integration, system, and simulation-based testing. Define reusable abstractions, APIs, and libraries for consistent implementation, including fault injection scenarios such as sensor dropouts, thruster misfires, and communication delays. 

Simulation & Test Infrastructure: Architect scalable simulation environments and virtual testbeds with seamless HIL/SIL integration, covering orbital mechanics, space environments (vacuum, radiation, thermal), and spacecraft dynamics including attitude control and propulsion. 

Global Standardization & Governance Establish: common testing strategies, naming conventions, data formats, and reporting standards across regions. Define quality metrics, coverage standards, and quality gates; lead architecture and test design reviews to enforce best practices. 

Automation & CI/CD: Build and standardize automated test pipelines within CI/CD workflows, ensuring tests are reliable, reproducible, and scalable across distributed environments. 

Performance & Mission Scenario Testing: Ensure test systems support large-scale simulations, high data throughput, and long-duration runs - including thousands of simulated missions across launch windows, environmental variations, and anomaly scenarios. Optimize for speed, determinism, and debuggability. 

Cross-Functional Leadership: Collaborate with global engineering teams to drive adoption of the test framework. Contribute to resource estimation, schedule planning, and risk identification. Embody ispace values - Diversity, Integrity, Respect, Collaboration, and Accountability - and stay current on emerging tools and methodologies. 

Basic Qualifications
  • B.S. or M.S. in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or related field 
  • 5+ years of software engineering experience with significant focus on test systems or infrastructure 
  • Proven track record designing scalable test frameworks or platforms 
  • Strong programming skills in Python, C++, Java, or similar 
  • Experience with automated testing, CI/CD systems, and test orchestration tools 
  • Solid understanding of software V&V principles 
  • Familiarity with ITAR/EAR requirements for sharing technical data internationally 
What Makes You Stand Out
  • Experience with simulation environments (MATLAB/Simulink, ROS, or custom platforms) and HIL/SIL testing 
  • Background in safety-critical industries (aerospace, automotive, robotics, or defense) 
  • Knowledge of distributed systems, cloud-based test infrastructure, and LabVIEW 
  • Familiarity with orbital mechanics, control theory, and embedded flight software constraints 
  • Experience interpreting telemetry and simulation data outputs 
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment with evolving priorities; willingness to travel (<10%) 
Compensation and Benefits
We welcome candidates with diverse experience levels and evaluate the best fit on an individual basis. Your final job level and salary will be determined based on your skills, experience, and the impact you can bring to the role.
