At CesiumAstro, we are developers and pioneers of out-of-the-box communication systems for satellites, UAVs, launch vehicles, and other space and airborne platforms. We take pride in our dynamic and cross-functional work environment, which allows us to learn, develop, and engage across our organization. If you are looking for hands-on, interactive, and autonomous work, CesiumAstro is the place for you. We are actively seeking passionate, collaborative, energetic, and forward-thinking individuals to join our team.
 
The Skylark product line is focused on the rapid design, build, and test of cutting-edge active phased array antennas (AESA) for terrestrial and airborne applications. Current programs span high-power, large-scale ground terminals for missile defense to commercial airline and helicopter connectivity solutions.  

We are seeking an experienced Senior Embedded Software Engineer II with a strong background in developing embedded applications using Linux and Yocto. The ideal candidate will have hands-on expertise in embedded systems, device drivers, kernel modifications, and boot loaders, with a preference for experience on the Xilinx platform (though experience on other microcontrollers is also acceptable).
 
As a Cesium software team member, you will be responsible for software designs from concept through production, including product roadmaps, block diagrams, detailed design and coding, analysis, test, qualification, and in-orbit support. The ideal candidate will have development experience at nearly every level of the software stack, including microcontrollers, low-level drivers, board support packages (BSP), and user interfaces with an emphasis on applications and data management. Additionally, the ideal candidate will have experience in software testing and high-reliability qualification, as well as software engineering and software project management practices.
 
The successful candidate will present engineering design review materials to our customers and executive team, as well as participate in proposal-writing efforts. As such, excellent written and verbal communication skills are required. 
JOB DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
  • Develop and port embedded Linux applications, custom device drivers, and libraries.
  • Configure, modify, and integrate the Linux kernel and embedded boot loaders.
  • Work extensively with U-Boot, and Linux kernel configuration.
  • Maintain and support the Yocto build system in a CI/CD environment.
  • Package and deploy software images for various hardware platforms.
  • Create and manage Linux images tailored to specific embedded hardware.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure system integration and performance.
JOB REQUIREMENTS AND MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS
  • Bachelor of Science (BS) or Master of Science (MS) degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or Computer Engineering. 
  • Minimum of 6 years of industry experience in software development. 
  • Experience in hands-on development and troubleshooting of software systems and hardware (such as motors, power distribution units, etc.). 
  • Programming experience in C or C++. 
  • Familiarity with software configuration management tools, defect tracking tools, and peer review. 
  • Excellent understanding of multi-threaded applications and resource management. 
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills. 
PREFERRED EXPERIENCE
  • Strong hands-on experience with Embedded Linux and Yocto.
  • Familiarity with Xilinx platforms or other microcontroller-based systems.
  • Experience with boot loaders, kernel-level development, and CI/CD pipelines.
  • Proven ability to work independently and manage multiple development tasks.
