Jobs at Boston Engineering

• Develop embedded software and firmware in C and C++ for new and existing products.
• Work with microcontrollers, embedded processors, RTOS-based systems, and embedded Linux platforms.

• Provide mechanical engineering design and development of innovative products from concept through production
• Design, build, and test proof-of-concept models, breadboards, prototypes, and production-ready designs

Company Description
About Us: Boston Engineering is where innovative ideas become real-world technologies. Headquartered in Waltham, Massachusetts, we've spent more than 30 years partnering with commercial and government clients to solve complex engineering challenges and bring breakthrough prod...

• Proven ability in:

Leading the design, development, and optimization of embedded and firmware systems for robotics, autonomous, or maritime platforms
Streamlining and documenting software processes to accelerate projects and ensure repeatability, while maintaining high-quality standards
Architecting and implementing firmware tightly integrated with custom hardware, sensors, and control systems
Writing and reviewing RTOS-based firmware (FreeRTOS, ROS2, Zephyr), including task design, synchronization, memory management, and timing analysis
Reviewing schematics and PCB layouts to identify firmware impacts, integration risks, and potential design issues early in the development cycle
Debugging complex system issues using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, protocol analyzers, and other bench tools, and determining root cause across software, firmware, and hardware
Building and maintaining benchtop development setups (“roadkills”) to enable early firmware development prior to final hardware availability
Ensuring firmware meets real-time performance, reliability, and mission-critical requirements
Leading technical design reviews, architecture discussions, and roadmap planning with a focus on system-level risk and feasibility
Clearly communicating technical concepts, tradeoffs, risks, and status to both engineering and non-engineering stakeholders
Anticipating and addressing technical bottlenecks that span firmware, hardware, and system integration

• Designing, developing, and maintaining embedded systems for hardware control, monitoring, and automation.
• Designing and implementing control systems, including PID control, motor control, feedback loops, and sensor integration.

• Lead the mechanical design of innovative products from concept through prototype, validation, and transition toward production
• Perform engineering analysis, CAD design, prototyping, testing, and design verification

• Design, build, and test breadboards, proof of principle units, and prototypes as part of the new product development process
• Showcase your experience in motion system design and analysis, motion controls, and robotics
