Senior FW Engineer
LOCATIONKyiv
EMPLOYMENT TYPEFull-time
INDUSTRYDefense and Space Manufacturing
Valkyrie Dynamics builds miniature radar seekers for drones.
The hardware operates in the field. We are now increasing the size of the core team.
We're looking for a Senior FW Engineer [Kyiv].
You own the low-level firmware. It controls the radar, it moves the data, and it holds every real-time deadline.
The firmware must stay stable during vibration, high temperature and high acceleration.
What you will do:
- Own the firmware on the seeker. This includes the board bring-up and the real-time loops that read the radar front end.
- Write deterministic embedded code on bare metal or on an RTOS. It must hold hard real-time deadlines on a small microcontroller.
- Bring up new boards with the EE team. Debug at pin level with an oscilloscope and a logic analyzer.
- Connect the radar, the compute module and the flight controller through SPI, I2C, UART and Ethernet.
What we offer:
- You get a competitive base salary and possibly founding-level equity.
- We pay all relocation costs if you move to our laboratory in Kyiv. You do not need to speak Ukrainian.
- You move your hardware from the bench to a field test in days.
If you want to build hardware that operates in the field, apply for this position.
