You care about software quality and should have experience in some of the following areas:

We are a world leader in embedded computer systems for harsh environments, with footprints in many parts of the solar system. We provide the complete ecosystem to support digital hardware design for mission critical System-on-Chip solutions. The IP cores and development tools support processors based on the SPARC and RISC-V architectures, also complemented by a software ecosystem that includes debugging tools, simulators, compilers, operative systems and bootloaders. In addition, we have a long experience in the management of ASIC development projects and the design of flight quality microelectronic devices: we provide several radiation-hardened standard components.
