Description
Embedded Software Engineer Location: Sterling, VA - Onsite About Accelevation We build what the future runs on. Accelevation designs, manufactures, and installs the physical infrastructure that powers today’s most advanced technologies. We’ve grown over 440% in the last 18 months because we take ownership, solve hard problems, and build with purpose. Join us to build the future. Your Impact As an Embedded Software Engineer, you’ll design and develop robust embedded solutions for modern energy and power electronics applications—ensuring our systems deliver precision, reliability, and scalability to support next-generation infrastructure. Your Day-to-Day Responsibilities * Design and implement firmware for embedded systems used in power monitoring, switching control, and energy computation. * Develop and optimize signal processing algorithms for real-time performance. * Work with microcontrollers and processors including TI DSPs (C2000, TMS320F28x), ARM Cortex-M/R/A MCUs, and FPGA platforms. * Interface with high-resolution ADCs and analog front ends to acquire voltage and current signals. * Implement industrial communication protocols such as RS-485, Modbus RTU/TCP, CAN, Ethernet (UDP/TCP/IP), MQTT, SNMP, and custom lightweight protocols. * Ensure synchronization and time-alignment across multiple acquisition and control nodes. * Collaborate with hardware engineers for end-to-end integration and testing. * Analyze system behavior and optimize firmware performance using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and in-circuit debuggers. * Document system interfaces, data structures, and integration points clearly and professionally. Qualifications * 6+ years of experience in embedded software development for control, measurement, or energy systems. * Strong command of embedded C/C++, bare-metal and/or RTOS-based programming. * Experience with digital signal processing and energy algorithms. * Hands-on experience with ARM-based MCUs, TI DSPs, and FPGA. * Deep understanding of industrial communication protocols and buses. * Proficiency in debugging and hardware/software integration. * Preferred: * Familiarity with power system standards (IEC 62053, IEC 61000, ANSI C12.20). * Knowledge of FPGA or HDL-based signal processing. * Experience with multi-core architecture or task separation for control vs. metrology. * Understanding of timing-critical systems and hardware-software co-design. Benefits * Competitive salary and performance bonus * Paid time off * 401(k) retirement plan with company match * Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance * Collaborative, high-energy workplace Our Core Values * Safety – We proactively protect our people and environment * Inclusion – We respect and appreciate diverse perspectives and backgrounds * Speed – We move fast, act decisively, and stay agile * Innovation – We challenge assumptions and simplify processes * Judgment – We make sound decisions with the business in mind * Accountability – We take ownership and deliver results Physical Demands and Work Environment Employees must be able to hear, speak, and communicate effectively. Work occurs in data center environments with potential exposure to electrical hazards, noise, and varying temperatures. Flexible hours, including nights and weekends, may be required. Physical requirements include bending, stooping, squatting, crawling, climbing, kneeling, balancing, pushing, pulling, and reaching overhead. Must lift at least 50 lbs and work at heights up to 90 ft using ladders, scaffolds, or lifts. Equal Opportunity Employer Accelevation LLC is an equal opportunity employer. Inclusion is one of our core values—we build teams that celebrate and embrace diversity, fostering a culture of respect for all. As part of our pre-hire process, we may conduct a background check and use E-Verify to confirm employment eligibility.
