Principal Embedded Software Architect The Systems Development Division (SDD) delivers technology advantage into users’ hands by delivering capabilities focused on end-customer needs that function in operationally relevant environments and timeframes. SDD considers the entire lifecycle of the solution, from conceptualization and architecting, through development, to deployment, while leveraging novel technologies to deliver first-of-a-kind systems. Current efforts include programs for airborne and space RF as well as advanced testing enabled by multi-function, multi-modal capabilities. STR is seeking a Principal Embedded Software Architect to define and lead the embedded software architecture for advanced RF systems, including software-defined radios, digital receivers/exciters, and radar subsystems built around MPSoC platforms. You will work hands-on in C/C++ and embedded Linux while providing technical leadership across a multidisciplinary team spanning FPGA, RF, digital hardware, and systems engineering. In this role, you will own the embedded software stack that integrates high-speed data converters, FPGAs, and multi-core processors, with emphasis on data acquisition, streaming, timing, and deterministic control. You will drive system bring-up, integration, and test, ensuring that solutions meet performance, reliability, and maintainability requirements for operationally relevant environments. What you will do Architect and lead development of embedded software for MPSoC-based RF systems (e.g., SDR, digital receivers/exciters, radar subsystems), from requirements through deployment. Define hardware/software partitions and interfaces; develop production-quality C/C++ and embedded Linux software (drivers, BSPs, low-level control, and application-level services). Bring up new boards and platforms in close collaboration with FPGA, RF, and hardware teams; configure and control high-speed ADCs/DACs, JESD links, and clocking/timing devices.
