Embedded Systems Engineer – Combat Jet & Cryogenic Engines

Scope of Work

We are seeking an Embedded Systems Engineer to design, develop, and validate real-time control software and embedded hardware platforms for advanced propulsion systems. This role is critical to integrating sensors, actuators, and control logic into high-performance combat jet engines and cryogenic rocket engines, with an emphasis on safety, redundancy, and AI-assisted diagnostics.

Nature of Work

• Develop real-time control algorithms and firmware for engine control systems (FADEC)
• Integrate hardware and software for sensor acquisition, actuator control, and safety interlocks
• Develop and validate communication protocols (CAN, RS485, ARINC, MIL-STD-1553)
• Work on embedded Linux/RTOS platforms for mission-critical systems
• Collaborate with thermal, mechanical, and AI teams to ensure robust system integration
• Assist in development of Digital Twin interfaces for hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) validation
• Design fault-tolerant, fail-operational control architectures
• Contribute to cybersecurity and secure boot protocols for aerospace-grade systems

Job Requirements

• B.E./B.Tech or M.E./M.Tech in Embedded Systems, Electronics, Electrical, Computer Engineering or related field
• 3+ years of experience in embedded systems development (Freshers with solid project/research exposure welcome)
• Hands-on experience with ARM Cortex/Microcontroller-based systems
• Proficiency in C/C++, real-time debugging, and firmware optimization
• Experience with MATLAB/Simulink or model-based design tools
• Understanding of control theory and its application to propulsion systems
• Familiarity with version control (Git), CI/CD, and DevOps practices
• Preferred: Experience with AI/ML model deployment on edge devices (e.g. Nvidia Jetson, STM32 AI)

Eligibility

• Indian nationals or those eligible to work in India
• Strong interest in indigenous aerospace and defense development
• Preference given to candidates with project experience in avionics, propulsion, or HIL simulations
• Security clearance or willingness to undergo background verification for defense-sensitive work
