Primary Function Summary:

Supports assignments presented in the research and development investigation of technology and application(s) that involve communication devices (IIoT) used in transportation telematics. The research and investigation would include device firmware code, software code and compatible hardware to operate in a heavy-duty environment. The device design would require communication protocol for the sensory device(s) then broadcasting to a collecting data device that has cellular functionality.

Duties and Responsibilities:

Develops statement of work for the application that would involve a sensory device revision or a new application. May need to work with telematics program manager for clear definition of the application.
Collaborates with the hardware engineers as the hardware is being designed to incorporate all components required for the data and messaging, with the thought of efficiency data extraction and transmission of the data. All devices will operate in a heavy-duty transportation environment.
Writes firmware source code to extract the data from the sensory device in format that is readable to the receiving collecting master control unit.
Works with the user interface code writers to develop messaging data from the sensory device to the user interface in a format that will allow the data parsed to be converted into a customer facing display called a widget.
Develops an alpha and beta testing plan for the device firmware. Construct a stress testing plan for the firmware during the validation testing.
System-level integration experience
(Design for cost, test, manufacturing) experience
Experience reading electrical schematics
Experience with hardware lab equipment such as digital scope and logic analyzer
Technical document writing experience using Visio, Word, Excel, and / or PowerPoint
Revision and document control experience
Experience programming with C/ C++/ C#/ Assembly/ Linux Based OS

Preferred Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in Electrical/ Computer Engineering or related field
2-5+ years of experience in software design
2-5+ years of experience in software development in a collaborative environment
Radio Frequency (IEEE 802.15.4)/ CANBUS knowledge
Bluetooth/BLE connectivity knowledge
Wireless electronic device experience
Manufacturing printed circuit board experience
Software development: firmware, IDE (ex: Eclipse, Visual Studio)
Preferred not required, master’s degree in engineering discipline.
Understand functionality of the system to provide better hardware abstraction layer
Maintains up-to-date job knowledge by way of attendance at seminars, visits to shops and equipment builders, trade journals and personal study time, including sponsored E-college courses.

Materials and Equipment Used:

Copy machine, drafting and drawing equipment as needed, {PC related skill, MS office products with an intermediate command of the software packages}, checking gages, engineering calculator, CADD translator and math data translator.
