microcontrollers jobs in San Diego

Zoox seeks an embedded software engineer to develop, maintain, and optimize real-time embedded software for multiple platforms in autonomous vehicles. You will architect board support packages (bootloader, drivers, RTOS), build low-level frameworks and infrastructure, and collaborate with electrical and validation engineers to bring up new embedded platforms.…See more The role requires 3+ years of hands-on embedded C/C++ development for distributed electromechanical systems, strong microcontroller/microprocessor expertise, and experience with RTOS environments like FreeRTOS or QNX.

Develop, test, and deliver software and firmware for uncrewed underwater vehicles (UUVs), including designing embedded systems in C/C++, writing device drivers and communication protocols (SPI, I2C, UART), integrating sensors and hardware components, and conducting at-sea testing and validation. The role spans both embedded firmware development and hardware design, requiring hands-on prototyping, PCB work, lab testing with oscilloscopes and logic analyzers, and occasional travel for sea trials.…See more You will collaborate on component selection, system optimization, regression testing, and may operate UUV systems during evaluation.
