Deine Rolle im Team

  • As an Embedded Software Engineer at GATE Space, you will be responsible for embedded software architecture, implementation, and automated testing.
  • You'll play a key role in developing close-to-hardware firmware in C/C++ and integrating FPGA-based solutions, while architecting robust Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) environments and CI/CD pipelines to validate system performance.
  • This hands-on role requires you to work closely with the electrical engineering team during hardware bring-up and offers the opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge propulsion development in a fast-paced environment, supporting the entire development lifecycle.
  • Embedded Development: Design, implement, and maintain close-to-hardware software and firmware in C and C++.
  • FPGA Integration: Develop, interface, and verify FPGA-based solutions, bridging the gap between programmable hardware logic and low-level software.
  • Test & Infrastructure: Architect and build robust test setups, specifically designing and operating Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) environments to validate firmware performance and safety.
  • Automation Pipeline: Establish and maintain CI/CD pipelines to automate embedded software builds, testing, and deployment directly to hardware targets.
  • Scripting & Tooling: Write robust Python scripts for test automation, data analysis, and hardware interfacing.
  • Hardware Bring-Up: Work hands-on with the electrical engineering team during prototype bring-up, debugging complex hardware/software interactions using oscilloscopes and logic analyzers.
  • System Architecture: Take ownership of software trade-offs, microcontroller selection, and the software architecture of custom PCB designs.
