This Embedded Software Engineer role at Leidos involves designing and developing high-performance embedded software for custom System-on-Chip (SoC) hardware in electronic warfare applications. You will write low-level C/C++ code for multi-core systems (DSP, ARM, RISC-V), perform hardware-software co-design and validation, and build software development kits for end users. The position requires 4+ years of embedded systems experience, deep understanding of hardware architectures, and proficiency in reading datasheets, test-driven development, and real-time operating systems.

Build emulation frameworks and tools for cyber-physical systems, extending platforms like QEMU in C/C++ and Python to support new embedded architectures (ARM, PPC, etc.). Rehost and reverse-engineer unknown firmware by analyzing binaries and hardware dependencies, then develop virtual device models and digital simulations validated against real hardware behavior. Work within a small focused team on architecture, implementation, testing, and technical documentation of modular emulation software.

Senior Staff Software Engineer role at Qualcomm focused on power and thermal management for next-generation ARM-based data-center server platforms. You will analyze system-level use cases, optimize DVFS and power-limiting mechanisms, develop algorithms to reduce power consumption, and perform system-level optimizations using hardware and software techniques. The role requires 6+ years of software engineering experience (or equivalent with advanced degree), 3+ years with C, C++, Java, or Python, and preferred expertise in power/performance measurement, ARM architecture, SoC design, Linux, real-time operating systems, and device drivers.

Qualcomm seeks a Staff Embedded Software Engineer (6+ years) to design, implement, and maintain real-time operating system (RTOS) software components across QuRT OS and Zephyr RTOS platforms deployed on Qualcomm SoCs. You will own complex system-level issues, lead feature design from requirements through deployment, perform deep root-cause analysis on crashes and traces, and collaborate across hardware, systems, validation, and software teams. The role emphasizes technical leadership, ownership of large technical areas, and raising team quality through example while leveraging modern development tools and automation. Strong hands-on experience with RTOS concepts, C/C++, low-level system software, and embedded development is required.

The DUV Software Group at Cymer seeks a Software Quality Assurance Engineer to develop and implement test plans for embedded real-time control systems used in laser-based electro-mechanical equipment. You will design test cases, execute testing in laboratory environments, analyze requirements for completeness, conduct code and design reviews, and collaborate with Systems, Algorithms, and Software engineers to ensure reliability and performance. The role requires hands-on experience with hard real-time embedded systems, actuators, motors, sensors, RTOS, and distributed control architectures, plus proficiency with test automation, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and data analysis. You'll translate requirements into verification strategies, trace problems to root cause, and maintain auditable test documentation across the full software development lifecycle.
