Firmware Engineer, Connected Warfare
Anduril Industries
About The Role
You'll be building the foundational embedded software for the Connected Warfare team. As a generalist firmware engineer, you'll be responsible for bringing new hardware to life — writing real-time microcontroller code, developing reusable device drivers for sensors and peripherals, and debugging the gnarly, cross-disciplinary problems that live at the boundary of hardware and software. You will work shoulder-to-shoulder with our Electrical Engineering team on some of the most complex autonomous systems being built today.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop low-level firmware/software for microcontrollers
- Create reusable device drivers
- Integrate system-level features
- Architect changes to support an ever-growing codebase
- Quickly debug and troubleshoot issues that span the electrical, firmware, and software boundaries
- Review schematics with the electrical engineering team
Requirements & Tech Stack
- Strong C coding ability for embedded systems
- Experience integrating microcontrollers with analog and digital sensors
- Experience developing firmware in bare-metal or RTOS environments
- Solid understanding and application of coding best practices, board bring up, and debugging
- Familiarity with common bus protocols such as Ethernet, USB, SPI, I2C, CAN, RS232, RS485, etc.
- U.S. Persons status is required
Qualifications
- BS or MS in CS/CE/EE or equivalent industry experience
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience with one or more microcontroller cores (e.g., ARM, AVR, MSP430, PIC)
- Debugging skills with JTAG, SWD, Oscilloscopes, and Logic analyzers
- Have a bias for action: If you see a problem, you want to solve and fix it
- Be naturally curious about the technologies and tools you use
