We're Hiring: Embedded System Engineer
Full time | Core team
LAT Aerospace | Cross Program
LAT Aerospace is developing next-generation aerospace systems from first principles. This includes a hybrid electric aircraft that takes off and lands within a space of a parking lot, Defence systems built from ground up and scalable Gas Turbine Engines.
TheEmbedded Systems Engineer is a cross-program role spanning drivers, hardware interfaces, real-time systems, control logic, communications, and application-level firmware. You will work closely with PCB, electrical, and controls engineers to take embedded systems from first prototype through testing and deployment.
What you’ll do
Develop firmware across multiple layers, from low-level drivers and hardware abstraction to application and control logic.
Develop real-time embedded software for microcontrollers and embedded processors.
Build drivers and interfaces for sensors, actuators, ADCs, DACs, timers, communication peripherals, and other hardware.
Implement communication protocols including CAN/CAN-FD, SPI, I²C, UART, RS-485, Ethernet, and other interfaces.
Develop embedded control, monitoring, data logging, diagnostics, and fault-handling systems.
Work closely with PCB engineers to define hardware–firmware interfaces and debug board-level issues.
Bring up new hardware, debug firmware, and validate complete embedded systems on the bench and in integrated test environments.
Develop automated test and hardware-in-the-loop environments where required.
Build robust software architectures with appropriate fault handling, watchdogs, diagnostics, and recovery mechanisms.
Maintain firmware architecture, documentation, version control, test procedures, and release processes.
What we’re looking for
3+ years of professional experience developing firmware for aerospace, automotive, robotics, industrial, or other high-reliability systems is preferred.
Strong proficiency in C/C++ and embedded software development.
Experience with ARM-based microcontrollers such as STM32, TI, NXP, Microchip, or equivalent.
Hands-on experience debugging embedded systems using JTAG/SWD, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, debuggers, and other tools.
Strong understanding of firmware–hardware interaction and ability to debug issues across both layers.
Experience with embedded communication protocols such as CAN/CAN-FD, SPI, I²C, UART, Ethernet, or equivalent.
Familiarity with DO-178C, DO-254, DO-160, ARP4754A, and ARP4761 or equivalent safety-critical development and verification practices.
Experience with requirements-driven development, traceability, configuration management, verification, and software/hardware validation is highly preferred.
Strong software engineering practices including code reviews, automated testing, and version control.
Why join LAT?
No hierarchy beyond strength of ideas.
Rapid hardware iteration culture.
Build systems that have to work reliably in the real world.
Develops regional STOL aircraft and air-stops
LAT Aerospace is building a regional air travel network in India by designing and operating a 24-seat short take-off and landing (STOL) aircraft for medium-haul routes up to 1,500 km. It will offer high-frequency, low-cost flights from compact air-stops rather than large airports, using hundreds of underutilized airstrips to connect smaller towns and cities. The company is pursuing vertical integration through its Bengaluru propulsion center to develop indigenous gas turbine engines and is actively recruiting aero engineers to advance propulsion and aerodynamics. Its goal is to make air travel as accessible as bus transport while building India’s domestic aerospace capabilities, differentiating itself with an air-stop network and in-house engine development for scalable regional service.
