./Mission_Overview.md

As an Embedded Systems Developer at Vortex Aerospace, you will operate at the bare metal.

You will develop the low-level firmware that breathes life into our custom flight computers and distributed avionics nodes. From high-speed sensor polling to millisecond-precise actuator control, your code is the nervous system of the launch vehicle.

Operational Objectives

Develop highly efficient embedded firmware (C/C++) for ARM Cortex-M/R flight computers.

Write drivers to interface directly with sensors (IMUs, PTs, TCs) and actuators over SPI, I2C, and CAN FD.

Debug complex hardware-software interactions using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and JTAG probes.

Optimize interrupt service routines (ISRs) and DMA transfers for strict real-time constraints.

Implement bootloaders for reliable over-the-air (OTA) updates and redundancy management.

Mission Prerequisites

Mastery of Embedded C and Modern C++ (C++14/17) for resource-constrained environments.

Solid knowledge of RTOS principles (FreeRTOS/Zephyr: Task scheduling, Mutexes, Semaphores).

Ability to read electrical schematics and datasheets to bring new boards up from scratch.

Experience with FPGA/SoC platforms (Zynq/Cyclone/SmartFusion) is a major plus.

Familiarity with MISRA C guidelines and safety-critical coding standards.

— Deployment Benefits —
