Senior Computer Science Teacher Jobs in Delaware

We're looking for a Senior Embedded Software Engineer to design, develop, and maintain embedded software for our next-generation breast and skeletal health systems. In addition to core embedded software development, this role requires hands-on experience with low-level embedded software development, including driver-level design, implementation, and testing, as well as board bring-up activities. The engineer will work closely with hardware teams to interface with peripherals and ensure reliable system operation using communication protocols such as I2C, SPI, UART, USB, CAN, and Ethernet. This role is based out of Newark, DE and will require onsite presence.

What You'll Do

• Develop an expert-level understanding of our products and how they're used in clinical practice.
• Design, implement, and validate low-level device drivers for embedded platforms.
• Perform board bring-up activities, including hardware/software integration, debugging, and validation on new hardware platforms.
• Develop and debug software interfaces for hardware peripherals using protocols such as I2C, SPI, UART, USB, CAN, and Ethernet.
• Work within an Agile/Scrum/Continuous Integration environment to deliver reliable, production-ready code.
• Contribute to technical documentation, including requirements, design specifications, and release notes.
• Identify, design, and implement appropriate software testing; collaborate closely with Test Engineers to support verification and validation.
• Diagnose, prioritize, and resolve complex technical issues; analyze defects and drive process improvements.
• Serve as a technical leader on the team-mentoring junior engineers, promoting best practices, and insisting on high standards for quality and usability.
• Partner with Product Management and domain experts to define product improvements and new features.
• Perform software risk assessments (e.g., FMEAs) and help develop appropriate mitigations at the component, subsystem, and system levels.
• Stay current with emerging technologies and propose opportunities for product and process improvements.
• Train cross-functional teams on key product design elements and proper usage where needed.

What We're Looking For

Education

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in a relevant technical field (e.g., Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or similar).

Experience

• 8+ years of experience with a Bachelor's degree. 
• Experience developing complex, multi-component systems, including RTOS and/or embedded controllers.
• Strong computer science foundation, including operating systems, software systems, data structures, algorithms, and networking.

Technical Skills

• Hands-on experience with low-level embedded software development, including device driver design, implementation, and testing.
• Experience with board bring-up, hardware/software integration, and debugging on new hardware platforms.
• Strong experience interfacing with hardware using communication protocols such as I2C, SPI, UART, USB, CAN, and Ethernet.
• Expert-level programming skills in C/C++ in an embedded environment; assembler-level experience is a plus.
• Demonstrated mastery of software design principles, data structures, design patterns, and multithreading.
• Ability to architect complex software systems to meet functional and performance requirements while maintaining long-term maintainability.
• Ability to read and interpret circuit diagrams to identify control signals and processor inputs.
• Strong debugging skills and experience resolving complex issues in embedded systems.
• Comfortable working with technical documentation (requirements, design documents, release notes, etc.).
• Experience conducting and participating in thorough code reviews.
• Strong familiarity with developer tools: version control, CI/CD build pipelines, and issue/project tracking tools.

Soft Skills

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain complex technical topics to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Able to adapt communication style to different audiences and collaborate effectively within a cross-functional team.
• Demonstrated ownership of deliverables, with a track record of meeting project timelines.
• Strong awareness of both local and system-level impact of code changes.
• Proven ability to champion best practices and contribute to continuous improvement in processes and products.

Nice-to-Have

• Experience in the medical device industry.
• Experience with medical imaging or general image processing.
• Familiarity with DICOM and/or HL7 standards.
• Experience with secure coding principles or cybersecurity.
