Embedded C/C++ and autopilot expertise define this in office Edmonton role with Terrestrial X’s DefTech research and development team. Work directly with real aircraft hardware.

As an Embedded Flight Software Engineer, you will configure ArduPilot or PX4 and develop firmware for STM32, ESP32, and onboard peripherals. You will combine software development with electronics, avionics integration, and practical testing. The work supports integrated, tested systems and reproducible documentation.

Key Responsibilities

Configure, tune, and extend ArduPilot or PX4 on Cube/Pixhawk

Own flight modes, failsafe logic, and parameter sets

Write C/C++ firmware for engines, telemetry, payloads, and sensors

Integrate radios, GNSS, and Linux companions over MAVLink

Run SITL, HIL,



and flight-log analysis before implementing fixes

Requirements

Four or more years of embedded C/C++ experience typically expected

STM32, ESP32, or comparable platform experience with an RTOS

Hands-on ArduPilot or PX4 configuration, simulation, and flight-log diagnosis

UART, I²C, SPI, CAN/DroneCAN, and MAVLink knowledge

Oscilloscope, logic analyser, schematic-reading, soldering, and Git experience

Apply embedded fundamentals, autopilot knowledge, and hardware-debugging discipline to Terrestrial X aircraft systems in Edmonton.
