Junior Computer Scientist (Embedded Systems & Firmware) Position Overview We are seeking an enthusiastic, entry-level Junior Computer Scientist with a passion for embedded systems and firmware development to join our engineering team. This is an excellent opportunity for a recent graduate or early-career professional to apply computer science principles to real-world hardware. You will receive mentorship while developing C/C++ code for embedded Linux, writing microcontroller firmware, and assisting with hands‑on hardware integration and debugging.
Key Responsibilities
Software & Firmware Support:
Assist in the design, development, and deployment of C/C++ application code optimized for embedded Linux environments.
Assist in the development of low level drivers and configuration of registers using component datasheets.
Apply foundational computer science concepts to help optimize code for resource‑constrained systems.
Hardware Integration & Testing:
Participate in circuit debugging, hardware prototyping, and basic schematic reviews under the guidance of senior engineers.
Learn to utilize lab diagnostic equipment, including oscilloscopes and logic analyzers, to troubleshoot hardware‑software interfacing issues.
Documentation & Reporting:
Draft formal test procedures, technical specifications, and internal documentation.
Maintain strong organizational habits by generating clear, concise weekly progress reports for the team.
Qualifications & Skills
Education: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical discipline (Recent graduates are encouraged to apply).
Technical Foundation: Solid academic or internship experience programming in C and C++.
OS Familiarity: Exposure to Linux/Embedded Linux environments (e.g., academic projects using Raspberry Pi, BeagleBone, or similar platforms).
Hardware Awareness: Basic understanding of how to read electrical schematics and datasheets; familiarity with basic lab equipment (multimeters, oscilloscopes) from university lab coursework is a plus.
Soft Skills: Eagerness to learn, strong technical writing skills for documentation, and the ability to clearly communicate progress on a weekly basis.
