About us
At
VersoSat, we are redefining the future of
satellite communications !
Incubated by
ESA BIC Brindisi, previously by
PoliHub, and accelerated by
Zest (CDP), we are enabling
real-time satellite communications
for the
natural disaster detection, emergency management, space monitoring
and
defence
sectors.
With us, you will take ownership of the core technology that turns satellite data into immediate, decisive action on the ground. If you're ready to see
your work directly impact global events, your mission begins here.
The Role We are looking for an
Embedded Software Engineer
with experience in
Xilinx FPGA/SoC platforms. You will be responsible for the development, integration and validation of the software that powers our satellite communication systems.
Beyond development work, you will play a direct role in the product's integration onto the customer's satellite, contributing to Verification & Validation (V&V;) activities in a flight-ready environment.
Your Responsibilities:
Embedded Software Development : Implementation of firmware/software for Xilinx/AMD SoC platforms (RFSoC and Versal families) and integration with the FPGA infrastructure.
Driver & Middleware Development : Development and optimization of drivers, BSP (Board Support Package), inter-process communication, and low-level interfaces.
HW/SW Integration : Close collaboration with FPGA Engineers to define interfaces, protocols, and integrated functionalities.
On-Satellite Integration : Direct participation in integration, configuration, and software porting activities onto the customer's flight hardware.
Verification & Validation : Execution of testing, debugging, and functional/performance validation in hardware-in-the-loop and flight-like environments.
Essential Qualifications:
A Master’s degree in Computer Engineering, Electronic Engineering, or a related field.
Hands‑on experience in embedded software development for Xilinx SoC platforms.
Solid proficiency in C/C++ for embedded systems.
Experience with embedded Linux environments, Yocto or similar build systems.
Familiarity with HW/SW communication interfaces (e.g., AXI, DMA, interrupts) and common embedded protocols.
Proven experience in testing and validating designs on real hardware.
A proactive, problem‑solving mindset with strong autonomy and excellent collaboration skills.
What Will Make You Stand Out (Nice-to-Have):
C/C++ — 3+ years
Embedded Linux / Driver Development — 2+ years
Familiarity with Xilinx tools (Vivado, Vitis, PetaLinux).
Knowledge of Python for test automation and scripting.
Understanding of digital communication protocols (e.g., CAN, SPI, I2C, UART).
Experience with real‑time systems and low‑level software optimizations.
Why VersoSat?
Real Impact, Not Just a Role : You will have direct responsibility for foundational projects. You won't be just a cog in the machine, but an essential part of building the future of space communications.
Accelerated Professional Growth : Join a stimulating technical environment in a high‑growth startup, where you can learn and build a career working with cutting‑edge technologies.
Competitive Compensation & Ownership : A minimum RAL of €32k, significantly above the local market average, plus a stock option plan.
Work‑Life Balance:
Agevolazioni from a hybrid work model with flexible hours and smart working options, designed to help you achieve an optimal work‑life balance.
If you are ready to build systems that turn data into a decisive advantage, your mission begins here.
