Job Description

The Position

Engineer on this position is responsible for developing, implementing C/C++ code for microcontrollers. During development collaborates with other specialists (EE, FPGA Engineers, SW, etc.). This embedded software controls electronics for focused ion chromatography systems. These products are sophisticated electro-mechanical systems that include charged particle optics, Liquid and gas chemistries, pre-amplifiers, signal processing and other technologies for sub-micron structural modifications and imaging.

Key responsibilities include, but are not exclusively:

• Developing, testing, debugging and implementing C/C++ code.
• Developing Python scripts especially for testing purposes.
• Collaborate on new designs with EE engineers (particularly with CPLD & FPGA hardware designers) and with the other R&D groups world-wide.
• FPGA programming in VHDL or Verilog
• Participate in preparation and execution of Module projects running in R&D with competence in designing of C/C++ embedded software and Python.
• Publish design guides, Requirement specification documents
• Follow Thermo Fisher standards and processes.
• Lead the team owing the development and maintenance of our firmware
• Set development processes and drive adoption of new technologies and innovative instrument designs
• Work closely with system, mechanical, electronics, and software engineering teams to deliver outstanding customer experience for all Metals & Minerals products

• University degree in electronics engineering or equivalent
• Programming experience of more than 13 years
• Ability to lead firmware team, coordinate work, and track team deliveries
• Proven understanding of embedded systems design principles and real-time operating systems
• Proficiency in firmware development covering microcontroller/DSP software development and FPGA programming.
• Ability to setup and maintain development lifecycle techniques and processes to increase efficiency and quality
• Ability to work in established environment where you need to dig deep into complex systems and processes using analytical skills, reverse-engineering, and outside-the-box thinking
• Willingness to learn spectroscopy-related theories to better understand our daily operations
• Knowledge of C/C++ programming and implementation of common communication protocols with UART, SPI, I2C, etc.
• Extensive experience in Boot loader, BIOS, and Linux Device drivers.
• Design and developing Diagnostics tools and GUI
• Hands-on experience in Networking Sockets and Stacks/Communication protocols
• Knowledge on RTOS such as RTX, FreeRtos / Pthreads /Keil-RTX
• Able to work within closely defined and constrained development environment.
• Enjoys and recognizes work in multidisciplinary teams both in-house and in other Thermo Fisher development sites.
• Support diversity in the team and be opened to new technologies.
• Willing to study new technologies.
