Job Description

We are looking for a hands-on Software Engineer with strong experience in hardware/software integration and system-level testing to design and operate a Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) integration and test facility for an advanced optical space payload.

This is not a pure software role — you will work directly with real, flight-like hardware in a lab environment, building tools and infrastructure to validate system behavior, performance, and reliability.

Your Role

You will be at the heart of payload integration, developing software that interacts with real hardware to enable end-to-end system validation.

What We're Looking For

We are specifically looking for engineers who are comfortable working close to hardware, not just writing software.

• 5–7 Years Of Experience In
  • Embedded systems, system integration, or hardware/software testing
  • Strong proficiency in Python (automation, tooling, scripting)
  • Experience working in hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) or lab environments
  • Solid Understanding Of Hardware Communication Protocols
    • CAN, I2C, SPI, UART, Ethernet (TCP/UDP)
  • Strong debugging and problem-solving skills across software and hardware boundaries
  • Experience with system-level testing, not just unit/software testing

Nice to Have

• Experience in space, aerospace, automotive, robotics, or defense systems
• Familiarity with CAN tools (e.g., Vector) and CANOpen
• Experience with C++ (e.g., for performance tools or GUIs)
• Experience with GUI frameworks (Qt, wxWidgets) or dashboards
• Knowledge of data visualization and time-synchronized data analysis
• Experience validating firmware or FPGA-based systems
• Familiarity with Linux environments and Git workflows
• Understanding of signal processing or control systems
