Generalmatter Electrical Engineer (New Grad) at General Matter develops software supporting advanced enrichment technology and collaborates with multidisciplinary engineering teams. The role involves designing, testing, and deploying software interfacing with hardware and data acquisition systems.

Responsibilities

We’re looking for an early-career Software Engineer who is excited to build software that directly enables advanced enrichment technology and the systems used to develop, test, and operate it.
As a Software Engineer at General Matter, you’ll work alongside electrical, mechanical, test, and other engineering teams to develop software for real-world technical systems. Your work may span data acquisition and analysis, hardware interfaces, automation, internal engineering tools, test infrastructure, and production systems.
You’ll have the opportunity to own meaningful projects from design through deployment, work closely with the hardware your software supports, and see the impact of your work firsthand. This is a strong opportunity for a recent graduate who enjoys solving challenging problems, learning across disciplines, and building reliable software in a fast-moving engineering environment.
Design, develop, test, deploy, and maintain software supporting engineering, test, and operational systems.
Build tools and applications that interface with hardware, instrumentation, controls, and data acquisition systems.
Develop software to automate testing, experiments, data collection, analysis, and engineering workflows.
Collaborate closely with engineers across software, electrical, mechanical, controls, test, and other technical disciplines.
Translate engineering requirements into reliable, maintainable software solutions.
Debug problems across software and hardware boundaries and help identify root causes.
Develop tests, monitoring, and tooling to improve software and system reliability.
Participate in design reviews, code reviews, testing, and technical documentation.
Take ownership of projects and drive them from initial concept through implementation and deployment.
