Job Description
Heka makes the world better for all of us. Our engineers develop cool things: planes, trains, automobiles, radios, rockets... the cooler, the better! Grow your skill set and feel the satisfaction of evolving classical engineering disciplines like mechanical, software, electrical, industrial, systems, and additive manufacturing to state-of-the-art product development methodologies. Not cheaper, better, faster (yawn) but amazing, influential, and disruptive. Drive improvements and products to reality to improve humankind.
Our teams are hands-on, collaborative, and thought-provoking. We combine scientific methods of discovery and evolutionary engineering principles.
This position is contingent upon contract award.
What you’ll do:
* Design and develop safety-critical software components for the flight software, including flight controls, battery management systems, controls, and actuators.
* Write multi-level requirements.
* Software verification, validation, and testing using scripts and supporting documents.
* Participate in planning, designing, scheduling, prioritizing, and tracking the project.
* Decompose item requirements into high-level and low-level software requirements in compliance with DO-178C.
What you need:
* Minimum of 7 years of experience.
* Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related degree.
* Experience with battery management systems.
* Proficiency with C.
* Experience with 32-bit Microcontroller like STM32, ESP32, or any ARM Cortex.
* Experience working with Microcontrollers at a low level – building BSP, drivers, bootloaders, with and without RTOS, bare-metal.
* Understanding of communication standards and protocols (RS-422/485/232, CAN, ARINC-429, AFDX, Ethernet, TCP/IP, etc.).
* Familiarity with debugging environments.
* Experience with the documentation process and source control, Git.
* Experience with several SDLC methodologies.
* Fluency with scripting like bash and Python.
* Experience with MATLAB/Simulink.
* Excellent organizational and communication skills.
* A problem-solving constitution, with a curious mind for discovery, coupled with self-discipline and an intrinsic drive for continuous self-improvement.
* A solid engineering or computer science background.
* Ability to work on-site in Melbourne, Florida.
Nice to have:
* Experience in flight control software or a related field.
* Experience developing software complying with safety standards like DO-178C or ISO 26262 to high criticality levels (DAL-A/B).
* Familiarity with lab instruments such as oscilloscopes and bus analyzers.
* Experience with Model Based Software development and certification (DO-331).
