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.

Lead a specialized team of software engineers developing innovative Pixel sensor experiences at the intersection of hardware, software, and AI. You will drive the design and implementation of real-time embedded systems that process sensor signals efficiently while applying machine-learning and signal-processing algorithms in a power-optimized manner. Required: 8 years software development experience, 5 years in computer vision or signal processing, 5 years leading ML design and infrastructure optimization, and 3 years technical leadership. This role demands deep expertise in embedded software, AI/ML algorithms, sensor fusion, and the ability to independently architect systems while managing a team.

Senior Firmware Engineer role focused on developing and optimizing low-level embedded software in C++ for flight-critical avionics and unmanned aerial systems (UAS). You will port frameworks to new RTOSes and hardware platforms, create Board Support Packages and Hardware Abstraction Layers for ARM Cortex-M architectures, develop peripheral drivers (I2C, SPI, UART, ADC, wireless), and conduct unit/integration testing including MISRA C compliance checks. You'll diagnose cross-domain issues across electromechanical, software, networking, and RF subsystems, and translate mission requirements into technical specifications and test documentation.

Senior embedded software engineer role developing mission-critical firmware for Amazon's Leo satellite constellation. Responsibilities include architecting ASIC firmware, RF communication subsystems, secure boot operations, real-time embedded software, and hardware interfaces using protocols like I2C, SPI, UART, and Ethernet. The role requires security-by-design principles, threat modeling, secure coding practices, and collaboration with hardware architects and systems engineers to bring custom silicon from concept through secure bring-up and production integration.

Senior Software QA Engineer responsible for validating Firestorm's avionics platform—embedded Linux and RTOS flight computers, drivers, middleware, and safety-critical interfaces. Will design and execute risk-based test strategies (feature, exploratory, regression, acceptance) across HIL/SIL rigs, build Python-driven automation for serial/CAN/Ethernet I/O and fault injection, and instrument diagnostics to isolate timing and state issues before Flight Test. Expected to own system testing end-to-end, validate robustness under degraded conditions (jitter, packet loss, brownouts, watchdog resets), and collaborate with avionics, autonomy, radio, and payload teams to harden reliability on aircraft.

Senior Technical Architect at HCLTech designing and implementing complex technical solutions for Apple products, from prototype through mass production. The role focuses on test fixture hardware design, integration with test instruments, and product testing, working closely with system design and diagnostics teams early in the development lifecycle. Responsibilities include designing electrical schematics and PCB layouts, debugging complex systems, and serving as a key liaison with Contract Manufacturers to validate test station hardware and software. Requires a B.S. in Electrical Engineering or similar with 3+ years of experience, strong knowledge of analog/digital/power electronics, and proficiency with CAD tools and industry protocols.

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.

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.
