Spacecraft Embedded Software Engineer (Rust)

Job description

We are seeking an experienced Embedded Software Engineer (Rust) to join our Platform team (folks looking after the spacecraft). The successful candidate will play a crucial role in developing software for our satellite systems, contributing to the expansion and enhancement of our space-based data collection capabilities. Ideal candidates will embrace the commercialization of nanosatellite systems and adapt to low-cost, fast-paced systems design, development, and implementation methodologies that set Spire apart from our competition. In this fast-paced environment, the design to launch cycle is measured in weeks and months, not years! What You’ll Do as a Spacecraft Embedded Software Engineer: - Develop daemons in Rust that interface with embedded systems using low- level protocols - Implement communication interfaces between embedded systems and higher-level processes - Integrate C code for specific hardware interfaces - Contribute to the design and implementation of fault-tolerant systems - Collaborate closely with the Electrical Engineering team to ensure optimal software-hardware integration - Create and maintain comprehensive documentation for APIs and system architectures - Con...
