Job Description:
At TechBiz Global, we are providing recruitment services to our TOP clients. We are currently seeking a Senior Embedded Software Engineer to join one of our clients' teams. If you're looking for an exciting opportunity to grow in an innovative environment, this could be the perfect fit for you.
ABOUT THE CLIENT
Our client is an innovative aerospace technology company transforming system integration through AI-driven interoperability. Their core platform streamlines satellite integration workflows by enabling modular connectivity between payloads, components, and subsystems. It converts hardware specifications into digital twins and automatically generates, tests, and validates onboard middleware software that is hardware- and OS-agnostic. This web-based collaborative tool supports mission-critical projects, allowing teams to model, test, and simulate data interfaces for satellites, spacecraft, and lunar landers.
NOTE: this position requires working on-site and relocation to Luxembourg.
JOB DESCRIPTION:
As Senior Embedded Software Engineer, you will architect, implement, and maintain our hardware- and OS-agnostic onboard software framework. Collaborating with the AI team, your work will enable integration of any hardware into any bus in less than a day, ensuring robustness, safety, and performance across Linux and real-time operating systems.
What You’ll Do
1. Platform & Abstraction
Design and develop a hardware-agnostic HAL and middleware stack in C/C++, supporting ARM Cortex-A/R/M, RISC-V, etc.
Create OS-agnostic abstraction layers for Linux (Yocto/Ubuntu) and RTOS (FreeRTOS, Zephyr, RTEMS) with minimal code divergence.
1. Driver & Protocol Implementation
Implement and maintain bus-protocol drivers (I2C, SPI, UART) with multi-bus and multi-instance support for redundancy.
Define and follow clear software-to-hardware interface contracts (ICDs/datasheet-driven), ensuring consistent behavior across platforms.
Apply OOP principles in C++ and structured design in C to build modular, testable components.
Enforce MISRA C/C++ and CERT Secure Coding guidelines; integrate static analysis, code reviews, and Git-based CI pipelines.
1. Automation & Testing
Develop Python scripts to automate configuration, build, flashing, and validation of onboard software across multiple target boards.
Build and maintain hardware-in-the-loop and software-in-the-loop test frameworks to continuously validate the onboard software and platform compatibility.
Collaborate with the Software Lead, AI Engineer, and Backend team.
Mentor junior engineers, share cross-platform strategies, and foster an iterative “try, learn, improve” culture.
Required Qualifications
1. Bachelor’s or Master’s in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent
2. 5+ years of embedded software development, emphasizing cross-platform or portable code
3. Expert in C (99/11) and Modern C++ (11/14/17); solid OOP and procedural design understanding
4. Deep experience with I2C, SPI, UART (multi-bus, multi-device patterns)
5. Proven ability to develop for Linux (Yocto, Ubuntu) and RTOS (FreeRTOS, Zephyr, RTEMS)
6. Python scripting for automation
7. Familiarity with hardware debugging tools (JTAG/SWD, logic analyzers, oscilloscopes)
8. Strong version control workflow (Git, GitFlow) and CI/CD integration
Nice-to-Have
1. Background in satellite or aerospace onboard computers (OBCs) and Flight Software Frameworks
2. Experience with container-based CI (Docker)
3. Knowledge of additional field buses (CAN/CAN-FD, MIL-STD, etc.)
4. Experience with secure boot or firmware-update mechanisms
5. Prior work on middleware or plugin frameworks
