The Emulation Tooling and Modeling Software Engineer must be proficient in one or more of the high-level languages (C/C++, Python) used for building the underlying tools that support the development of emulation models of complex cyber physical systems. Successful candidates will have experience in reverse engineering of embedded instruction set architectures (e.g., ARM, PPC) and a desire to develop required emulator tooling across a diverse class of targets of interest. The ability to develop tools such as operating system handlers, bare metal firmware emulation, and virtual device simulation are key to support the emulation of representative signal processing and control systems components and algorithms. Such components will be prototyped with time and event-driven simulations and implemented on real-time hardware systems.
The Emulation Tooling and Modeling Software Engineer will also support model development for sensors, actuators, dynamics and environmental factors from first principles, measured data, available documentation/literature and hardware/software artifacts. The quality and validity of the models are ensured using unit testing and effective operation after integrating the modules into larger system simulations. Knowledge and experience developing modular code compliant with well-defined component message/protocol interfaces is highly relevant. Models often include both hardware and software elements, and experience working at the software/hardware interface (e.g., serial, USB, data acquisition subsystems and device drivers) is particularly useful.
