Description
At Northrop Grumman, our employees have incredible opportunities to work on revolutionary systems that impact people's lives around the world today, and for generations to come. Our pioneering and inventive spirit has enabled us to be at the forefront of many technological advancements in our nation's history - from the first flight across the Atlantic Ocean, to stealth bombers, to landing on the moon. We look for people who have bold new ideas, courage and a pioneering spirit to join forces to invent the future, and have fun along the way. Our culture thrives on intellectual curiosity, cognitive diversity and bringing your whole self to work - and we have an insatiable drive to do what others think is impossible. Our employees are not only part of history, they're making history.

The Embedded Software Engineer should have experience coordinating with different teams and stakeholders, including interfacing with partners from subcontract organizations. The embedded flight software is developed in a resource constrained target environment with soft and hard real time requirements. The software will typically implement complex data analysis, data routing, and/or control systems algorithms. Candidate will need familiarity with various processor, memory, and I/O architectures and be able to implement both procedural and embedded software in C/C++ utilizing real-time operating system (RTOS).
The ideal candidate should have academic and work experience in software engineering and development across the full life cycle for software systems on space programs. Experience working in a process-oriented environment utilizing agile processes is also desired. The Embedded Software Engineer should also have strong verbal and written communication skills and be comfortable working on teams with engineers from other engineering disciplines. Must be comfortable working in a lab environment and executing to aggressive schedules.
