Als Embedded Software Engineer (d/f/m) bei Airbus Defence and Space gestalten Sie Software-Architekturen, Echtzeit-Computing-Plattformen und digitalisierte Infrastrukturen für unbemannte Luftfahrzeuge (UAVs) von der Konzeptphase bis zur Zertifizierung. Sie arbeiten im neu geschaffenen Bereich Highly Integrated Systems (HIS) innerhalb des Systems Centre of Competence und sind Teil des Multisystem Design Office. Zu Ihren Aufgaben gehören die Entwicklung sicherheitskritischer Plattformsoftware in C, Low-Level-Softwareentwicklung, die Konfiguration von Echtzeitbetriebssystemen sowie die Erstellung von Lebenszyklus-Artefakten und die Durchführung von Integrationstests.

Responsibilities

Architect, implement, integrate, and test safety-critical platform software using C within an agile team.
Drive low-level software development, including microprocessor bring-up, Board Support Package (BSP) adaptation, and hardware-software integration.
Configure, develop and optimize Real-Time Operating Systems (e.g., ARINC 653) ensuring strict time and space partitioning for multi-core environments.
Author key lifecycle artifacts (PSAC, SDP, SVP) and maintain 100% bidirectional requirement traceability.
Define and execute end-to-end operational test scenarios utilizing physical Multisystem Integration Test RIGs.

Requirements

Master's Degree in Computer Science, Aerospace Engineering, or similar
At least 3 years of professional experience in embedded software development.
