About the role

Cesium Astro in Melbourne, FL, is seeking a software engineer to develop embedded and high‑reliability systems for space-grade products. You will design, implement, test, and support software across microcontrollers, BSPs, and Linux-based environments. Ideal candidates have a BS in CS/EE, 5+ years in embedded software, experience with RTOS, C/C++, and aerospace-grade products, plus strong communication and collaboration with hardware teams.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
