Voyager Technologies - Technology & Advanced Development - Internship Program, Full time employment

We are seeking a Senior Embedded Systems & SimulationEngineer to serve as a core technical leader on the Agentic ComputationalEngineering (ACE) team. In this role, you will design and build the AI, tools, testand evaluation frameworks, and associated physics-based simulation models thatdesign, build, and deploy embedded, FPGA, and board-level systems hardware.You will work end-to-end across the stack: from first-principles modeling ofcomplex electrical systems, to embedded firmware and FPGA logic, to PCBreviews and hardware-in-the-loop integration. You will ensure that the ACEplatform can reason about and control real devices with high fidelity, not justidealized models. This role is ideal for a deeply hands-on embedded/FPGAengineer who loves deriving models from physics, understands debugging on thebench, and who uses AI tools as a force multiplier for both code and design.

ABOUT THE JOB

Architect and implement embedded firmware and low-level software (C/C++ andrelated tooling) for ACE-connected hardware modules, including microcontrollers,FPGAs, and custom boards for space environments. Lead or contribute to the design and review of digital hardware, including FPGA/SoC-based boards, high-speed interfaces, and supporting circuitry, with attention to signalintegrity, power, radiation considerations, and testability. Develop and maintain AI agents that perform FPGA designs (e.g., in VHDL, Verilog, orSystemVerilog), including simulation, verification, and timing closure for high-reliability applications. Build and use physics-based, first-principles models of complex electrical systems(e.g., power electronics, digital interfaces, mixed-signal subsystems) using circuit-level tools (SPICE) and, where appropriate, EM or field solvers to developcomputational engineering and evaluation frameworks. Integrate embedded systems and simulation models into the ACE platform so that AIagents can invoke them as tools for design exploration, verification, and optimization. Develop hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) and bench setups that allow agent-generateddesigns, control strategies, and firmware updates to be evaluated against real orflight-like hardware. Create robust software interfaces, APIs, and documentation that make embeddeddevices, FPGA logic, and simulations accessible to other ACE engineers and to AIagents. Provide technical leadership and mentorship to early-career engineers on embeddedsystems, FPGA/PCB design, coding standards, and test methodology. Use LLMs and agentic workflows to accelerate boilerplate code generation, testbenchcreation, documentation, and exploratory design trades—freeing your time for thehardest modeling and systems problems.
