We are looking for individuals who thrive on making an impact and want the excitement of being on a team that wins.
Job Description
** US Citizenship or Green Card Holder is required for this position. We are unable to hire individuals who need a work visa, are currently on a work visa, or individuals who will require work visa sponsorship in the future. **
At Teledyne FLIR in Orem, we design and develop unmanned aircraft systems and mission-critical payloads that operate in demanding environments. Our teams work closely with defense and security partners to deliver reliable, fielded systems where robustness, performance, and maintainability matter. We are a small, collaborative engineering team focused on solving real problems with disciplined engineering and clear ownership.
Job Summary:
We are seeking a Embedded Software Developer to develop and integrate software for small unmanned aircraft systems and associated subsystems. This is a hands-on, product-focused role spanning microcontrollers, RTOS-based systems, and embedded Linux. The ideal candidate is a strong individual contributor who can work independently, contribute effectively from day one, and reason about software behavior across hardware and software boundaries. This role values system-level awareness and the ability to participate meaningfully in architectural decisions while continuing to produce high-quality embedded code.
Job Duties & Responsibilities:

• Develop embedded software in C and C++ for microcontrollers, RTOS-based systems (e.g., Zephyr or similar), and embedded Linux platforms
• Design and implement core embedded constructs such as state machines, timing-sensitive logic, and basic algorithms
• Integrate software across multiple interconnected processors and subsystems, including sensors, cameras, and payload devices
• Develop and maintain low-level drivers and hardware interfaces
• Work with common embedded communication protocols such as I2C, SPI, UART, and Ethernet
• Perform system-level debugging using tools such as logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, and in-circuit debuggers
• Own features from initial design through implementation, integration, testing, and field support
• Contribute to system architecture and interface design in collaboration with other engineers
• Build and maintain internal tools, test utilities, and automation, often using Python

Job Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree required
• 1-3+ years of professional experience developing embedded software for production systems
• Strong proficiency in C and C++ for embedded targets
• Experience working across multiple layers of an embedded system, including MCU firmware, RTOS-based software, and embedded Linux
• Solid understanding of microcontroller peripherals and inter-device communication protocols
• Demonstrated ability to debug complex hardware/software interactions and resolve system-level issues
• Experience delivering reliable embedded software in a collaborative engineering environment

Helpful Experience (Nice to Have):

• Experience with UAS software stacks or autopilot systems, particularly PX4, including integration with sensors, payloads, or higher-level system components
• Experience developing firmware for microcontrollers, including peripheral configuration and low-level driver development
• Experience with real-time operating systems such as Zephyr, FreeRTOS, or similar
• Board bring-up and low-level hardware/software debugging experience
• Familiarity with STM32, NVIDIA Jetson, or similar embedded platforms
• Exposure to UAS, robotics, or other complex embedded systems

Applicants must be either a U.S. citizen, U.S. national, legal permanent resident, asylee, refugee or must be eligible to apply for and obtain the appropriate export control license from the U.S. Departments of State or Commerce.
