real-time-embedded-systems jobs in San Diego

Design, develop, and test embedded firmware code for Amazon's Project Leo satellite constellation, running on ground networks, customer terminals, and satellites. You will optimize performance across MIPs and memory bandwidth, profile code on RTOS and bare-metal environments, define and debug firmware-hardware interfaces, and contribute to multi-dimensional system requirements in a real-time embedded environment.…See more Requires 3+ years of professional software development experience and 2+ years of system design or architecture experience.

Principal or Sr. Principal embedded software engineer responsible for developing, integrating, and debugging low-level firmware and real-time multi-threaded embedded applications for Link 16 tactical datalink systems.…See more The role requires proficiency in C/C++, object-oriented programming, and the full software lifecycle from requirements to testing, with hands-on experience troubleshooting Link 16 waveforms, working with tactical datalink radios/terminals, and collaborating across systems engineering, hardware, and integration teams in an Agile environment. Candidates must be able to obtain a U.S. Secret-level security clearance and work full-time onsite.

Design and develop firmware for DSP-based digital control systems in programmable AC & DC power products. Implement digital control algorithms, perform design analysis (gain/phase plots), create test plans to validate performance, and develop bootloaders for DSPs and microcontrollers.…See more Requires 8+ years of power control experience in power supply applications (DC-DC converters, PFC systems, grid-tied inverters), expertise in power electronics topologies, embedded C and Assembly programming, and 6+ years with communication protocols (SPI, I2C, CAN).

Senior Embedded Firmware Design Engineer at Semtech responsible for defining, developing, and optimizing embedded firmware for low-power mixed-signal circuits from specification through production support. Role includes designing hardware-firmware architectures, implementing ML-based inference firmware, conducting pre- and post-silicon validation, and mentoring junior engineers.…See more Requires 8–10 years of embedded firmware experience for mixed-signal ICs, strong C/C++ and assembly proficiency, deep knowledge of MCU architectures (ARM, RISC-V, STM32), and expertise in real-time systems, signal processing, and design-for-test methodologies.
