Green Hills Software | Santa Barbara, CA | Full-time | ONSITE | Embedded Software Consultant | https://www.ghs.com/jobs.html We're hiring for multiple teams, both in Santa Barbara and worldwide: http://www.ghs.com/jobs.html , but I'll put in a plug for my own team of Embedded Software Consultants. We're called the "support" department, but we don't field calls about "my cup holder is broken." We're much more likely to have someone turn compile 20K lines of C++ code with optimizations for the first time and have them tell us there's a bug in the compiler; but in reality their program has some undefined behavior that happens to behave differently with optimizations on -- and it's our job to find it! (Once we discovered that the code needed three volatile keywords added, on two lines of code!) If you thrive on troubleshooting software problems and designing creative solutions, enjoy learning about new technology, and want to jump in and save customers in desperate need of a hero, this is the job for you! Job Requirements: * Learn and understand the inner workings of complex software systems * Quickly diagnose technical problems with limited information * Succinctly explain complex technical concepts to experts from other technical domains * At least 2 years experience programming in high-level languages, C, and C++ To apply please email your resume to jobs@ghs.com.
