Model and integrate physical system behavior into software (sensors, actuators, plant dynamics)
Collaborate with mechanical, electrical, and firmware teams to define system interfaces and control strategies
Ensure robustness through fault handling, diagnostics, and safe-state behavior
Optimize control performance within timing, resource, and hardware constraints
Support system integration, validation, and field issue root-cause analysis
Full lifecycle software application development: Design, programming, debugging, peer review, unit testing, performance tuning, integration
Product testing: Unit testing, bench testing, system integration testing, and field test support
