Electronic Embedded Systems Engineer

Overview Cascodium is a small, commercial electronics engineering firm that develops creative and innovative solutions to electrical engineering and embedded systems design challenges for industrial, consumer, and sponsored R&D clients ranging from start-ups to the Fortune 500 (including robotics, medical, energy, space, defense, etc.). Our technical staff is enthusiastic about working in an atmosphere of creative and diverse project experiences which provide ongoing opportunities for learning and enrichment. Cascodium's fast-paced, goal-oriented environment enables rapid integration of leading-edge technologies into new products and instrumentation solutions. Responsibilities This position will require you to design, develop, simulate, analyze, fabricate, test, and evaluate custom electronic systems in a laboratory and office environment. These tasks will involve hardware, firmware, and software development and test. Primarily, you will use CAD (computer-aided-design) tools to develop mixed signal designs from schematic to working assemblies. This development process will involve schematic circuit design and entry, printed circuit board (PCB) design and layout, source code generation and compilation for embedded devices, software development, interfacing with vendors, supervision of assembly, test procedure generation, and design verification testing of completed electronics assemblies and software. Applicants are expected to have a solid understanding of the inner workings of microcontrollers (memory, interrupts, peripherals, etc.) and FPGAs (resources, timing closure, placement, etc.). Other potential duties and responsibilities include, but are not limited to: preparing technical reports and documentation, programming and running various forms of computer simulation, researching technical subjects, specifying and purchasing parts for projects, and interfacing with customers at the technical level. Attendance in the office is required to meet project requirements for debugging, verification testing, etc. and to facilitate mentorship and collaboration. Specific Skills Embedded firmware development (microprocessors and FPGAs) Mixed signal (analog and digital) circuit design and signal processing Debugging electronic assemblies RTOS environments Altium Designer for schematic design and PCB layout Requirements Bachelor's or Master's in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering 2-5 years of work experience Experience in any combination of the following disciplines: embedded firmware, analog electronics, power electronics, feedback control, digital hardware Detail-oriented approach to tasks Excellent written and oral communication skills Working knowledge of circuits and electrical systems Ability to apply theory to a variety of real-world problems No relocation is available for this position.
