Firmware Engineer
Elveo, Chantilly, VA
The role
The Firmware Engineer at Elveo will develop the bare-metal and RTOS firmware that runs on the microcontrollers throughout our satellites — in the D2D communications payload and across the spacecraft bus. This role sits squarely between our Flight Software and Electrical Engineering teams: you will bring up new boards alongside the engineers who designed them, write the drivers and control loops that make that hardware useful, and define the interfaces that our Linux-based flight software uses to command and monitor it.
The firmware will be developed and tested on lab hardware and on our "flatsat," a satellite prototype that simulates orbit operations, before it flies.
