ABOUT THE ROLE

ADASI is an aerospace and autonomous systems company focused on developing advanced solutions for unmanned systems and defence applications. The Embedded Software Developer will be responsible for designing, developing, integrating, and testing embedded software for aerospace platforms, flight control systems, and other mission-critical applications.

The role requires strong programming skills, real-time software development expertise, and an understanding of hardware–software integration and safety-critical engineering standards. The successful candidate will collaborate with multidisciplinary engineering teams to deliver reliable, efficient, and high-performance embedded software.

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Embedded Software Development: Design, develop, test, and maintain embedded software for aerospace platforms, flight control systems, and related applications.
• Real - Time Systems Development: Develop software for real-time operating systems (RTOS), ensuring predictable execution, low latency, and system reliability.
• Algorithm Implementation: Translate system requirements and control algorithms into efficient embedded software in collaboration with systems and control engineers.
• Hardware - Software Integration: Integrate software with microcontrollers, sensors, actuators, processors, and other electronic components.
• Testing and Validation: Conduct unit, integration, and system-level testing to verify software functionality, performance, and reliability.
• Safety - Critical Software Compliance: Apply relevant aerospace software development standards, particularly DO-178C, and coordinate with hardware engineering teams on applicable DO-254 requirements.
• Code Optimization: Optimize software for processing speed, memory utilization, resource efficiency, and performance.
• Debugging and Troubleshooting: Identify, analyse, and resolve software defects, system anomalies, and integration issues.
• Technical Documentation: Prepare and maintain software design documents, source code documentation, test plans, test reports, and verification records.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with hardware, systems, control, integration, and quality assurance teams to achieve project objectives.
• Configuration and Version Control: Maintain source code integrity and software configurations using tools such as Git.
• Continuous Improvement: Keep up to date with embedded technologies, development tools, coding practices, and relevant aerospace engineering standards.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or a related discipline.
• Typically, 5 - 7 years of experience in embedded software development, preferably in aerospace, defence, avionics, automotive, or other safety-critical industries.
