    Description

    JOB SUMMARY

    Nuvation is looking for a talented, innovative Senior Embedded Software Developer, who successfully combines architecture skills, technical expertise, and project leadership. This is a full-time position in our Waterloo Office. The ideal candidate has demonstrated experience working with multi-discipline teams, has sound knowledge of software engineering practices, and is comfortable in a highly collaborative environment. Proven experience is a must, but so are technical creativity and the ability to learn. In this role you will be a critical member in Nuvation's engineering group. If you are looking for constant challenges on a wide variety of design problems, this is the job for you.

    COVID-19 considerations:

    Nuvation is committed to putting our employee health and safety first by following provincial guidelines safe workplaces. Most of our employees work from home with only a handful onsite for essential work.

    The nature of this role requires you to reside local to the Waterloo Region. You will spend most workdays remote with the occasional office visits to interact with hardware systems.

    Please note that anyone entering Nuvation premises – staff, tenant, client, or visitor – must be fully vaccinated against COVID-19.

    WHAT DOES NUVATION DO?

    Founded in 1997, Nuvation is an electronic design company that provides hardware design, software development, and FPGA design services for electronic product development.

    Our Clients hail from many industries including Video, Wireless, Medical, Defense Robotics, and High-Performance Computing. Over the last two decades we have served over 400 customers and completed over 1000 engineering design projects.

    WHO IS NUVATION?

    At Nuvation, we are engineers to the core – it is our culture and we engage in it as a team sport. We enjoy gnarly challenges and see creative opportunities, where others see problems. We specialize in the ridiculous and emphatically reject the limitations of conventional wisdom.

    We've built systems to capture data while exploring space, an air hockey robot that blocks over 98% of shots , a trainer for your soccer skills, cameras to help stores understand their patrons, and many other systems for our clients. We are fanatical pragmatists who revere logic, process, repeatability, and methodology. You will be working with highly competent team members who are wired to respond to challenges with innovation. We're very comfortable skating on the bleeding-edge of technology.

    In our spare-time we stop engineering for fun and money, and start engineering for fun alone. We've built combat robots, an electric car, an autonomous driving electric beer keg, and other arguably useful inventions that require an incredible amount of engineering expertise to make them work

    Our business fuels our culture, and our culture fuels our business. We love the work that we do and enjoy working with each other every day.
