Job Summary
You develop firmware for electron microscopes, integrating signal processing functions on ARM microcontrollers and FPGAs, testing directly in the lab on the system while collaborating closely with interdisciplinary teams.
Job Technologies
Your role in the team
- You will be responsible for developing the firmware directly on the product and will see the impact of your work firsthand in the live system – at the heart of our electron microscopes.
- They develop and expand functions in the firmware for signal processing and image generation of our electron microscopes.
- You design and develop firmware for controlling complex microscope and electronics modules in close coordination with the hardware and software teams.
- You develop high-performance control systems on ARM microcontrollers in C/C++ as well as on FPGA components and bring your solutions into industrial applications.
- You integrate your firmware modules into the overall system and test them directly under the microscope – hands-on in the lab rather than just on paper.
- They analyze, debug, and optimize firmware in a laboratory environment (e.g., with JTAG, oscilloscope, logic analyzer) to ensure robust, results-oriented solutions.
- You create clear technical documentation for firmware functions and interfaces, enabling your team to build efficiently on your results.
