Embedded Systems Engineer
Nomad Global Communication Solutions (Nomad GCS) is a leading provider of communication and response products serving a wide range of customers. Our purpose is to be the solution when every minute matters. We are seeking Embedded Systems Engineers to help design, develop, and support the embedded hardware systems for Nomad Total Command™ (NTC) and other systems integrated into Nomad products. Embedded Systems Engineers at Nomad GCS are responsible for the design, development, integration, testing, and lifecycle support of embedded hardware and firmware used within Nomad Total Command™ (NTC), as well as support of embedded systems across all Nomad products and platforms. This includes microcontrollers, embedded processors, sensors, control modules, communication interfaces, and operator control systems that enable deterministic control, automation, monitoring, and safe operation of capabilities across Nomad platforms. Depending on level (I–V), Engineers progress from learning foundational engineering practices and supporting designs to independently leading complex system architectures, mentoring others, and driving technical strategy across the organization. This position requires strong hands-on engineering capability combined with system-level thinking, enabling the engineer to diagnose complex system interactions, guide technical decisions, and improve the robustness and performance of embedded systems deployed in demanding environments. Career Growth: Embedded Systems Engineers at Nomad GCS progress through five levels based on demonstrated technical mastery, independence, leadership, and impact. Advancement is supported through mentorship, ownership of embedded subsystems, and alignment with Nomad's Core Values. Organizational Structure: Engineering is organized into Teams and Disciplines within the Innovative Solutions Division. Teams: o Team 1 – Standards and Modularity: Builds and maintains engineering standards, modules, templates, and rules enabling repeatability and scale. o Team 2 – Design: Executes project-level engineering using established standards and less complex custom configurations. o Team 3 – Advanced: Develops novel systems and resolves first-of-kind engineering challenges. o Team 4 – Manufacturing & Industrial Engineering: Ensures manufacturability, safety, engineering intent, efficiency, and continuous improvement throughout Production. Disciplines: o Mechanical Engineering o Electrical Engineering o IT Engineering o Human Factors Engineering o Embedded Systems Engineering (where this role is located) o Software Engineering An Embedded Systems Engineer may be temporarily assigned to one or more of the four Teams and support Standards and Modularity, Design Engineering, Advanced Engineering, and/or Manufacturing & Industrial Engineering. Core Responsibilities – All Levels: Design, develop, and support embedded hardware and firmware used within Nomad Total Command (NTC) and other Nomad platforms. Develop firmware and control logic using C/C++ for microcontrollers and embedded processors supporting modules and control interfaces. Write logic that bridges embedded hardware with NTC software using C/C++ and other languages. Specify/test new embedded computers, network switches, and other hardware for NTC or other Nomad platforms. Integrate sensors, actuators, networking interfaces, and operator control systems used by the NTC platform. Design and troubleshoot embedded systems using CAN, SPI, I²C, UART, Ethernet, and related protocols used within various communication networks. Ensure systems exhibit deterministic and predictable behavior, particularly in real-time or near real-time environments. Review, edit, or write JSON based configuration files. Implement error logging, as well as frequent "health checks" and hardware status updates. Drive improvements in reliability through testing, diagnostics, and design iteration. Diagnose complex interactions between hardware, firmware, networking, and electrical systems. Work within Linux-based environments, including containerized environments (Docker). Flash embedded firmware for micro-controlled hardware and sensors. Write control logic & software for Programmable LogicControllers (PLC's). Participate in efforts to automate and continuously improve NTC hardware configuration. Attend meetings regarding upcoming builds, take meaningful notes, and actively participate:
Proposal Reviews; Sales/Project Management Kickoffs; SPN reviews, Initial Design Reviews (IDR), and Executive Design Reviews (EDR); and Actively participate in Executive Reviews and document any findings.
Configure, or aid in configuring NTC hardware for production projects, ensuring configuration is accurate and aligns with customer requirements and intended system operation. Assist production team(s) with troubleshooting NTC issues. Design or assist in designing printed circuit boards (PCB's) Participate in design reviews, testing, validation, and root cause analysis of embedded hardware and control behavior. Work closely with Software Engineering to define hardware abstraction layers (HAL's) and other methods to translate software commands into hardware actions. Assist software in defining how hardware data/control should be presented in the NTC frontend. Develop and improve embedded systems with the goal that hardware control logic is independent of NTC software functionality. Design systems with strong emphasis on fault tolerance, redundancy, and predictable failure behavior. Assist field and production teams in resolving challenging system-level issues. Prototype and test next-generation capabilities including, but not limited to:
Automation systems Advanced sensor integration AI-assisted monitoring Autonomous subsystems Vehicle information system integration (CAN) Self-deployment capabilities (SLAM, Sensor-Fusion, Computer Vision etc.) Edge machine learning Predictive maintenance capabilities Subsystem data acquisition for local inference.
Identify opportunities to improve operational awareness, system automation, and reliability. Collaborate cross-functionally with Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, IT Integration, Human Factors Engineering, Software Engineering, Production, Quality, and Program Management teams to ensure embedded systems integrate cleanly with platform subsystems. Apply continuous improvement principles to improve reliability, determinism, manufacturability, and maintainability of embedded hardware. Produce clear technical documentation including:
Engineering notes Troubleshooting guides Test procedures Technical design documentation System changes, firmware updates, and hardware improvements.
Translate operational feedback into engineering improvements. Uphold and model Nomad Core Values in all work. Perform additional duties as assigned. Level Expectations: Embedded Systems Engineer l – Entry / Developing Support senior engineers with firmware development tasks and documentation related to NTC embedded modules. Assist with embedded development using C/C++ and microcontroller platforms used within NTC and other Nomad platforms. Participate in prototype builds, testing, and debugging activities for embedded hardware. Learn Nomad embedded standards, communication protocols, and NTC configuration processes. Gain familiarity with CAN, SPI, I²C, UART, and Ethernet communication used within embedded hardware networks. Assist with basic or semi-complex engineering projects. Work under close supervision while building technical competence. 0–2 years embedded systems or related engineering experience. Progression signal: Learns quickly, reduces rework, completes tasks correctly on the first pass with attention to detail. Continuously takes ownership of assigned tasks and takes initiative. Communicates effectively and professionally with relevant stakeholders. Embedded Systems Engineer ll – Independent Contributor Independently develop firmware for embedded subsystems and control modules. Implement control logic, state machines, and communication interfaces supporting NTC functionality. Create production-ready embedded code and configuration for NTC hardware. Participate in NTC hardware bring-up, integration, and troubleshooting. Support manufacturing troubleshooting and resolve moderate NTC system issues. Participate actively in design reviews and cross-functional collaboration with supporting disciplines. Participate in advanced engineering projects requiring new features or complex logic. 2–5 years embedded systems engineering experience. Progression signal: Can be trusted to deliver correct
