ABOUT SINGULAR GENOMICS

Singular Genomics is inventing at the forefront of genomics one of the worlds fastest-growing industries. The commercially available G4 Sequencing Platform is a powerful highly versatile benchtop genomic sequencer designed to produce fast and accurate addition the company is currently developing the G4X Spatial Sequencer an upgrade to the G4 which will leverage Singulars proprietary sequencing technology applying it as an in situ readout for transcriptomics proteomics and fluorescent H&E in tissue with spatial context. Singular Genomics mission is to empower researchers and clinicians to advance science and medicine.

We foster a culture of creativity and technical excellence both catalysts for innovation. We celebrate diversity emphasize collaboration and as we rapidly mature we are constantly looking at ways we can do better for our people.

Our Headquarters are located on the Torrey Pines Mesa in La Jolla California at the center of the biotech hub. Our Manufacturing facility is in Sorrento Valley.

POSITION SUMMARY:

As a Senior Firmware Engineer you will work with your peers in science and engineering to architect design and develop embedded controls for sophisticated scientific instrumentation.

Primary responsibilities for this position are to generate firmware requirements/specifications and to design/develop/test embedded code for new custom and existing biotechnology products. As part of a small and dynamic team the candidate will be capable of multi-disciplinary contribution i.e. participate in the definition and design of optical/electrical/mechanical subsystems.

This position is ideally suited to a candidate who is self-motivated and excited by a startup environment where opportunity to rise to frequent and diverse challenges is commonly encountered.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

Develop embedded firmware to control motion fluidics temperature and imaging hardware.
Work closely with other members of the R&D team with expertise in biochemistry optics/physics micro-fluidics signal processing and engineering.
Translate high level design requirements and specifications into detailed requirements specifications prototypes and final products.
Working with other engineers and scientists; design test evaluate and conduct iterative improvement on prototype systems leading toward released products.
Develop test plans product and technical documentation.
Directly support the R&D process; instrumentation and chemistry development.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:

BS/MS in Computer Science Electrical Engineering or comparable accredited technical degree and a minimum of 5 years of real-time embedded systems experience.

Ability to capture negotiate decompose and derive formal firmware/system requirements.
Ability to read and interpret schematics.
Ability to diagnose and debug common and uncommon system level issues.
Ability to write code/firmware for microcontroller targets.
Familiarity with control systems (PID closed loop control).
Familiarity using software test/development tools (JTAG MCUXpresso etc.).
Experience with common lab equipment (power supplies DMMs oscilloscopes logic/protocol analyzers).
This position requires soft skills to be part of a cross functional team with excellent written & oral communication and presentation skills.
Ability to work independently in a fast-paced and dynamic team environment.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:

Ability to write code targeting ARM based real time systems.
Experience with FPGA development.
Experience with firmware development for biomedical instrumentation.
Expertise with analog and digital hardware motion and temperature control fluidics and optics.
