  • Several years of experience with industrial control systems and/or embedded control systems
  • Several years of experience in producing production quality control software
  • Working knowledge of modern software development lifecycle practices (CI/CD, git version control, unit testing, integration testing, etc)
  • Proficiency with python
  • Proficiency with at least one real-time control language (c++, SCL/ST, rust, etc)
  • Bonus points for:

  • Familiarity with industrial control platforms (e.g. Beckhoff TwinCat)
  • Familiarity with Linux
  • Experience with industrial protocols (e.g. EtherCat, Profinet, Modbus, etc)
  • Familiarity with general networking (IP/UDP)
  • Must-have Requirements:

  • Ability to occasionally lift up to 50 lbs
  • Perform activities such as stooping, climbing, typing, standing, sitting, etc. for extended periods of time
  • Dedication to safety to mitigate industrial hazards that may include heat, cold, noise, fumes, strong magnets, lead (Pb), high voltage, high current, pressure systems, and cryogenics
  • Willingness to occasionally travel or work required nights/weekends/on-call

  • #LI-Onsite
     
     

    At CFS, we excel in fast-paced environments, driven by our values of integrity, execution, impact, and self-critique. As we grow, we’re eager to bring on mission-driven folks who offer diverse perspectives and fresh ways to tackle challenges.
