Embedded Software Engineer

Captiveaire
Raleigh, NC

Company Profile:
CaptiveAire is the nation's leading manufacturer of commercial kitchen ventilation systems, and now provides a complete solution of fans, heaters, ductwork and HVAC equipment. For over 40 years, we've led the industry with innovative technologies, unmatched service, competitive pricing, and rapid lead times.

CaptiveAire maintains a network of over 90 sales offices in the U.S. and Canada and six strategically located manufacturing plants in North Carolina, Iowa, Oklahoma, California, Pennsylvania and Florida.

Job Description: CaptiveAire values its software developers and offers them immense opportunities for freedom and creativity while not having overbearing management. We pride ourselves on our work environment and provide the absolute best in terms of equipment. This position is specifically for our embedded products. Primarily, this includes our HVAC and kitchen ventilation software and all tools surrounding them.

This position requires someone that has a passion as well as strong skills in low level C development. This includes both driver level bare-metal code as well as application logic based on requirements. This position will focus on the development of new, future products.

For overall project management, we use an internally-hosted instance of YouTrack as well as Confluence for documentation efforts and TestLink for product requirements. For Continuous Integration, we use TeamCity and internally-hosted NuGet packages to help better manage our software builds, dependencies, and deployments. Source code is hosted in an on premise GitHub Enterprise instance.


Travel is rare, but occasional trips to our R&D lab in Pennsylvania can occur roughly once per year.

Goals for this position

  • This position will be working with future product software.

  • Implement new feature requests and fix bugs in existing logic.

  • Independently interface with product managers to design the best products possible.

  • Help with start up software for new circuit designs.

Desired technical skills


  • Master’s or Bachelor’s degree in Computer or Electrical Engineering.

  • 5+ years with C, with a good knowledge of drivers and driver development.

  • Some knowledge of communication protocols, primarily Modbus. BACnet is a plus.

  • Some experience with C#/WPF/XAML is helpful but not required.

  • The ability to develop a large scale C product from inception to completion and maintaining the product for its life cycle.

  • Solid grasp on circuitry knowledge to help diagnose design flaws.

Benefits


  • Medical, dental and vision insurance

  • Disability & life insurance based upon election of medical insurance

  • 401k with employer match

  • Paid holidays

  • Paid time off (PTO) based upon tenure

  • Flexible spending account (FSA)

  • Tuition reimbursement, including for Professional Engineering (PE) License

  • Relocation assistance

Salary:
We offer a competitive salary based upon experience

CaptiveAire employees are expected to be independent with very little hand-holding and technical training required. You should be comfortable taking on medium to large projects and/or features and be able to bootstrap them from the ground-up. You should also be comfortable diving into well-entrenched, custom, in-house systems and applications which drive the entire company. We are easy-going, don't have a lot of processes to get in our way, and basically want to deliver top-notch, quality systems and software to run the company. As part of the CaptiveAire IT team, you will have many opportunities to contribute directly to the success of the company.

CaptiveAire is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace.
