Tesla seeks an embedded software engineer to develop firmware for cell formation manufacturing systems. The role involves writing embedded C and Python code for real-time controls, battery management algorithms, power conversion, and functional safety across prototyping through high-volume production. You will collaborate with manufacturing and electrical engineering teams on hardware bring-up, system validation, and production integration. The position requires proficiency in C/C++, embedded protocols (CAN, UDS, etc.), and a strong foundation in electrical engineering concepts and software fundamentals.

Senior Systems Software Engineer role at Saronic Technologies focused on designing, developing, and optimizing software systems for autonomous surface vessels. Responsibilities include implementing autonomous navigation and control algorithms, integrating software with hardware systems, optimizing network communications for low-bandwidth/high-latency environments, and conducting software testing and validation. The role requires 3+ years (Senior) or 8+ years (Staff) of software engineering experience, preferably in autonomous systems or robotics, with proficiency in C/C++ or Rust, embedded Linux systems, and knowledge of low-level protocols and networking principles.

Design, develop, and maintain software systems for autonomous surface vessels using NixOS, embedded Linux, and low-level protocols. Implement control algorithms and sensor fusion, optimize network communications for bandwidth-constrained maritime environments, and collaborate with hardware engineers to integrate software with vessel systems. Requires 3+ years (Senior) or 8+ years (Staff) of software engineering experience, proficiency in C/C++ or Rust, strong embedded systems knowledge, and familiarity with protocols like CAN and TCP/IP.

Senior Software QA Engineer to own system testing for Firestorm's avionics platform—embedded Linux and RTOS flight computers, board support packages, device drivers, and safety-critical data paths. You will design and execute risk-based test strategies (feature/bring-up, exploratory, regression, acceptance) and build automation across HIL/SIL rigs exercising real buses (CAN/CAN-FD, UART, SPI, I²C, Ethernet) and links (MAVLink, Tactical Data Links) under fault conditions. You will instrument diagnostics, triage defects, and harden robustness for timing, jitter, packet loss, brownouts, and recovery paths before Flight Test. This is a full-time onsite role in San Diego requiring hands-on bench work with flight computers, power systems, radios, and sensors.

Design, develop, and maintain software systems for autonomous surface vessels using NixOS, embedded Linux, and low-level protocols. Implement algorithms for autonomous navigation, controls, and sensor fusion while optimizing network communications for maritime environments with low bandwidth and high latency. Collaborate with hardware engineers to integrate software with vessel systems and conduct rigorous testing and validation in real-world conditions. Candidates must have 3+ years of software engineering experience (senior level) or 8+ years including architecture and platform leadership (staff level), with proficiency in C/C++ or Rust and strong understanding of embedded systems, networking, and control systems.

Develop bare-metal firmware and low-level device drivers for Qualcomm reference platforms, focusing on hardware bring-up, validation, and early platform enablement. Work directly with hardware and silicon teams to debug SoC peripherals, implement test firmware, and resolve hardware/software integration issues using lab instrumentation and debug tools. Design and maintain register-level software for a wide range of integrated peripherals including memory, displays, cameras, RF transceivers, and communication interfaces. Requires deep expertise in embedded systems, processor architectures, and hardware protocols with strong problem-solving and cross-functional collaboration skills.

Form Energy seeks a Manufacturing Test Developer to design, develop, and deploy automated electronic manufacturing test systems for PCBA and system-level products. The role involves leading Functional Circuit Test (FCT) and End-of-Line (EOL) test development, defining test strategies and acceptance criteria, collaborating with cross-functional teams, and managing external vendors for test fixture development. Required skills include 5+ years of manufacturing test engineering experience, strong hands-on proficiency with NI LabVIEW and NI TestStand, deep knowledge of embedded communication protocols (CAN, CAN-FD, SPI, I2C, Modbus, Ethernet/IP), and expertise with automated test instrumentation (DAQs, power supplies, DMMs, oscilloscopes). Additional experience with Python, SQL, statistical analysis, and manufacturing inspection technologies (AOI, AXI, ICT) is valued.
