Embedded Software Engineer Space applications

As part of setting up a new embedded space software development workshop, we are looking for an Embedded Software Engineer specialized in space applications. Their main mission will be to develop a first representative embedded software, intended to run on a real onboard computer, by applying the methods, tools, and development, test, and validation rules defined in the new workshop. This first piece of software will notably involve implementing the PUS 1 - Telecommand Verification Service and PUS 17 - Test Service services, in line with the requirements and profiles applicable to the project. The candidate must therefore be able to develop functional software quickly, while working from the outset within a framework compatible with ECSS and ISO 9001 practices, as well as the quality rules defined by the company. Job Description

• Development:Analyze the interfaces and constraints of the available onboard computer.
• Define the necessary software architecture.
• Implement the PUS 1 and PUS 17 services.
• Develop functions in C and/or Rust, according to the architecture and rules defined by the workshop.
• Develop test tools and scripts in Python.
• Integrate the software onto the target computer.
• Carry out the first functional tests on the actual hardware.
• Quickly diagnose and fix issues encountered.

Working within the new workshop: The candidate will be one of the first operational users of the innovative development workshop.Good knowledge of the CCSDS / ECSS Packet Utilization Standard (PUS) ecosystem is important for this role.Hands-on experience with PUS 1 and/or PUS 17 would obviously be a major advantage.Validation on real equipment and simulationAI and accelerated development:however, the software produced must remain fully under the engineer's control. What we offer

• The opportunity to be part of an international team transforming the space industry.
• A creative and innovative work environment where ideas turn into reality.
• Competitive salary and benefits.

Requirements

• Engineering or university degree in computer science, electronics, embedded systems, or equivalent.
• Minimum 5 years of experience in embedded software development; I would personally be more flexible on seniority for this role than for the other two positions.
• Very strong command of C.
• Experience with Rust strongly appreciated.
• Very strong command of Python for automation and testing.
• Experience developing on microprocessors / microcontrollers / embedded computers.
• Experience with cross-compilation and integration on real targets.
• Good knowledge of Git and modern software development practices.
• Experience with test automation.
• Understanding of software/hardware validation challenges.
• Knowledge of CCSDS / ECSS / PUS strongly appreciated.
• Experience with embedded space software is a significant advantage.
• Professional-level English.
• French nationality is required due to restricted-access projects.

Highly valued

• PUS experience, especially PUS 1 / PUS 17.
• Experience with RTOS or bare-metal environments.
• Experience with Software-in-the-Loop / Hardware-in-the-Loop environments.
