Senior FW Engineer
LOCATIONKyiv
EMPLOYMENT TYPEFull-time
INDUSTRYDefense and Space Manufacturing
We are scaling Valkyrie Dynamics. We build miniature radar seekers for interceptor drones.
The hardware is working in the field. We are now expanding the core team.
We are hiring a Senior FW Engineer [Kyiv].
You will bring the seeker to life. You will own the low-level firmware that drives the radar, moves the data, and never misses a deadline. We expect bare-metal mastery and firmware that stays solid under vibration, heat, and high-G.
What you will do:
- Own the firmware on the seeker, from board bring-up to the real-time loops that pull data off the radar front end.
- Write tight, deterministic embedded code on bare-metal or RTOS that holds hard real-time deadlines on constrained MCUs.
- Bring up new boards with the EE team and debug at the pin level with a scope and a logic analyzer until first light.
- Connect the radar, compute, and flight controller over the interfaces that carry the data (SPI, I2C, UART, Ethernet).
What we offer:
- Founding-level engineer equity and a solid base salary.
- Full relocation coverage and logistical support if you choose to join our lab in Kyiv. (Speaking Ukrainian is not required).
- An environment where your hardware goes from the bench to the test range in days, not months.
If you are tired of theory and want to ship real hardware, apply.
