Embedded Software Test Engineer
LeoStella, Tukwila, Washington, United States,
Embedded Software Test Engineer
LeoStella is a state-of-the-art small satellite design and manufacturing company based in the Seattle area. At LeoStella, we are redefining how high-quality satellite constellations are built at scale. Our focus is on developing and using intelligent and agile engineering and manufacturing processes to accelerate the development and production of small-sat constellations, all while lowering costs and increasing on-orbit capabilities.The work we do at LeoStella is helping organizations and markets change the world by removing the barriers to building satellite constellations. This is an opportunity to join a collaborative, high performing team focused on changing the paradigm in satellite development and production!Position Description:
As an Embedded Software Test Engineer, you will work with a team of other software engineers to plan, design, implement, and execute tests to verify embedded software. You will have the opportunity to learn about flight-specific components and architecture, as well as specifics on hardware used in the product, and apply that knowledge to verify the applications and behavior in an embedded Linux environment.You will be asked to participate in all stages of development: from requirements gathering, to design reviews; test planning to test execution and analysis. You will code in a Linux environment using Python interfaces, with possible exposure to C and C++. You will have the opportunity to work within an established code base while still maintaining flexibility for innovation and development of new capabilities that help verify the product. You will be exposed to a mix of manual and automated testing, as well as hardware-in-the-loop and emulated hardware testing.You will work with experienced members of the test and development teams and interact with our talented LeoStella engineering teams responsible for hardware design and production.
