Senior Embedded Linux and BSP Software Engineer (Avionics)

Flight computers, radios and payload processors only perform as well as the software stack sitting closest to the metal. Our client is a fast moving national security satellite company where engineers own real problems from first power on through to on orbit operations, and they need a senior embedded Linux engineer who can take full ownership of avionics bring up. If you are someone who lives at the intersection of hardware and software and wants their work to fly, this role will suit you well.

The role

You will lead Linux bring up for new avionics hardware, owning the board support package, custom kernel work, device trees, bootloaders and the low level drivers that expose hardware to the OS. You will define and build the infrastructure used to deploy and validate these systems across flight computers, radios and payload processors, and create internal tooling to support fast hardware debug in the lab and on the production floor. You will also represent software and firmware concerns in cross disciplinary product development and communicate technical risks and integration status clearly to programme teams.
