About
We design and build our entire radar system in-house, from antenna panels and RF front-ends to digital electronics, calibration systems, FPGA architectures, and data processing. This vertical integration gives us control over the electrical, thermal, and mechanical constraints that set the limits on radar performance and system reliability.
As an
Embedded Software Engineer , you will develop the firmware, FPGA logic, and embedded software that drive Array’s radar payloads and on-orbit processing systems. Your work could include writing and maintaining C/C++ firmware for Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC devices, designing FPGA modules for high-throughput sensing and data movement, or building Linux-based embedded systems using PetaLinux and Yocto, collaborating closely with digital, RF, signal processing, and systems engineers to deliver reliable, high-performance embedded solutions. The software and FPGA architectures you build will directly influence radar timing, data integrity, processing throughput, and system reliability on orbit.
As part of our quickly growing engineering team, you will play a critical role in building the world’s most advanced radar satellite constellation—one that will significantly improve humanity’s ability to rapidly and comprehensively understand our changing planet.
Responsibilities
Develop embedded software and firmware that support Array’s radar sensors, communication links, and satellite systems.
Contribute to bring-up and integration of FPGA-based platforms, including Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoCs.
Support the design and implementation of FPGA modules for reliable, high-throughput data movement.
Participate in building and maintaining Linux-based embedded systems using tools such as PetaLinux or Yocto.
Create automation, diagnostic, and test tools in Python to accelerate development and validation.
Collaborate across digital, RF, signal processing, and systems teams to evaluate performance, debug issues, and refine embedded architectures.
Basic Qualifications
Bachelors in Electrical or Computer Engineering, or a related field
3-6 years of experience in FPGA and/or embedded design and development
Experience with Xilinx FPGA design tools and workflows
Experience with embedded C/C++ for firmware development
Excellent teamwork and communication skills
High levels of self-motivation and personal accountability
Ability to work in a fast-paced environment under significant time constraints
Preferred Skills and Experience
Master’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
Experience building software for complex embedded systems or custom SoCs
Familiarity with Linux-based embedded systems development (Petalinux/Yocto)
Familiarity with Linux kernel drivers and related HW/SW interfaces
Hands‑on experience in FPGA build and deploy processes
Proficiency in Python scripting for automation and testing
Experience with satellite systems or aerospace applications
Ability to read, interpret, and modify schematic diagrams
