You'll be instrumental in designing the future of secured embedded connectivity.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design, implement, and rigorously optimize embedded network stacks, communication drivers, and protocols.
  • Partner with system and security engineering teams to seamlessly integrate advanced secure networking and real-time capabilities.
  • Rigorously validate and verify driver and protocol implementations to ensure reliability and adherence to strict functional safety and certification standards.
  • Master advanced troubleshooting of complex networking issues using state-of-the-art embedded debugging tools and testing methodologies.
  • Actively research and integrate emerging trends in networking, real-time communication, and embedded software design.
  • Collaborate effectively as a core member of a distributed, high-performance engineering team.

Core Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
  • Strong hands‑on programming expertise in C and C++, with exposure to assembly for low‑level performance optimization.
  • Proven experience developing and integrating network drivers and protocol stacks within resource‑constrained embedded systems.
  • In‑depth knowledge of real‑time operating systems (RTOS) or complex embedded Linux environments.
  • Familiarity with next‑generation networking technologies such as Time Sensitive Networking or Time‑Triggered Ethernet is highly desirable.
  • Prior experience applying or working under rigorous safety or certification standards (e.g., DO‑178C, ISO 26262) is preferred.
  • Proficiency in using hardware tools such as JTAG debuggers, oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers for low‑level debugging.
  • Excellent analytical, troubleshooting, and clear communication skills.

What Sets This Opportunity Apart

  • Impact on Mission‑Critical Systems: Your code will directly power some of the world's most advanced, high‑integrity applications in sectors such as aerospace, automotive, and industrial control.
  • Cutting‑Edge Technology: This role offers deep exposure to emerging secure and real‑time networking standards, placing you at the forefront of embedded development.
  • Engineering Excellence: Join a culture focused on technical depth, where quality, security, and performance are paramount—an ideal environment for a dedicated low‑level software expert.
  • Growth and Flexibility: As part of a fast‑growing company, you'll find ample opportunity for career advancement and the flexibility of working within a distributed engineering team.

If you’re passionate about building reliable, high-performance networking solutions for embedded systems and want to contribute to technology that powers safety‑critical industries, apply today.
