Embedded Software Engineer

Job Title: Embedded Software Engineer The Embedded Software Engineer designs, develops, tests, and maintains robust and efficient software for microcontroller‑based embedded control systems used in residential and power products. You will work closely with hardware, software, and product teams to deliver high‑quality solutions running on real‑time and embedded operating systems within connected, cloud‑based IoT environments. Responsibilities Develop, test, and maintain embedded software for microcontroller‑based systems using C and C++ on QNX, ZephyrOS, and similar real‑time and embedded operating systems. Collaborate with cross‑functional teams, including hardware engineers, software engineers, and product teams, to define requirements, design solutions, and support development and test efforts. Conduct unit testing, integration testing, and system validation to ensure software reliability, performance, and compliance with project requirements. Participate actively in code reviews, providing constructive feedback and contributing to continuous improvement of development standards and processes. Support hardware troubleshooting during product development and testing by working closely with hardware and sustaining engineering teams. Document software design, architecture, interfaces, and implementation details in a clear and maintainable manner. Use industry‑standard software diagnostic tools such as emulators, debuggers, and oscilloscopes to debug and verify controller software at the unit level. Develop custom diagnostic software when needed to support specialized features, functions, or troubleshooting activities. Collaborate in planning software tasks, estimating effort, and contributing to project timelines and budgets. Work on both sustaining engineering for existing products and New Product Development (NPD) initiatives in an embedded, IoT‑focused environment. Apply embedded systems and co‑design principles by working closely with hardware and circuit designs to optimize overall system performance. Follow established release processes, participate in code reviews, and walk through workflow and process steps to ensure high‑quality software delivery.
