Role Description

The newly-formed Embedded Software (ESW) group in North America develops innovative new technology to enable world-leading wireless communications capabilities for US Government applications. We are looking for talented, experienced ESW engineers to strengthen our embedded development function in this team.

In this role you will design and develop prototype systems that demonstrate novel capabilities for a diverse range of products.
