About the Role

Write the software controlling our hardware, including embedded control, drivers, and real-time applications for space terminals and ground stations. You will own the software that interfaces directly with FPGAs, detectors, lasers, gimbals, and sensors.

Responsibilities

• Develop embedded and real-time software for flight and ground hardware: device drivers, board support, FPGA register interfaces (AXI/memory-mapped), and control applications.
• Implement control loops and supervision logic for lasers, fine-steering mirrors, detectors, thermal systems, and power management.
• Build hardware bring-up, manufacturing test, and calibration software for engineering and production units.
• Develop flight software components including fault detection, isolation, and recovery (FDIR), telemetry, and command handling.
• Create hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) test environments and automated regression suites for embedded software.
• Work with electrical, FPGA, and optical engineers during integration and environmental test campaigns.
• Profile and optimize for determinism, latency, and resource constraints on embedded targets.
• Solve complex problems in challenging field environments.

Requirements

• BS/MS in Computer Science, Computer/Electrical Engineering, or related field.
• 4+ years of embedded or hardware-adjacent software experience in C/C++ (and ideally Rust or Python for tooling).
• Experience with embedded Linux and/or RTOS environments (FreeRTOS, Zephyr, VxWorks, RTEMS).
• Hands-on experience with hardware interfaces: SPI, I2C, UART, CAN, PCIe, or memory-mapped FPGA peripherals.
• Comfort with lab debugging: logic analyzers, JTAG, oscilloscopes, and reading schematics.

About the Company

• Azora is building high-bandwidth communications infrastructure for environments where fiber can’t reach.
• This work spans LEO spacecraft constellations, lunar exploration missions, GEO satcom, deployable optical ground for defense, and data centers both on- and off-world.
• To enable rapid global proliferation Azora is developing compact and modular optical terminals small enough to deploy from a backpack, and space terminals that support high speed optical links from LEO out to the Moon.

Equal Opportunity

• Azora is proud to be an equal opportunity employer.
• To conform to U.S. Government export regulations, applicants must be a (i) U.S. citizen or national, (ii) U.S. lawful permanent resident (iii) protected individual as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3), or (iv) be eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.
