- Develop firmware supporting communication interfaces including UART, SPI, I2C, CAN, USB, Ethernet, BLE, and MQTT.
- Collaborate with hardware engineers during board bring-up, hardware validation, and system integration activities.
- Optimize embedded applications for CPU utilization, memory footprint, power consumption, and boot time.
- Implement secure firmware update mechanisms, secure boot, encryption, and hardware-based security features.
- Develop software supporting sensors, actuators, wireless modules, and peripheral devices.
- Debug hardware-software integration issues using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, JTAG debuggers, and protocol analyzers.
- Write unit tests, integration tests, and automated validation scripts to ensure firmware quality.
- Participate in architecture reviews, code reviews, technical design discussions, and Agile development activities.
- Support production deployments, field diagnostics, root cause analysis, and firmware maintenance.
Qualifications
- Six or more years of professional embedded software development experience.
- Strong proficiency in Embedded C and Modern C++ for firmware development.
- Extensive experience developing software for ARM Cortex-M, ARM Cortex-A, STM32, NXP, Renesas, Texas Instruments, or Microchip microcontrollers.
- Strong understanding of embedded systems architecture, memory management, interrupts, DMA, timers, and peripheral programming.
- Hands-on experience with RTOS platforms including FreeRTOS, Zephyr, ThreadX, Embedded Linux, or VxWorks.
- Experience developing device drivers and low-level hardware interfaces.
- Strong knowledge of communication protocols including UART, SPI, I2C, CAN/CAN FD, Ethernet, USB, Modbus, MQTT, BLE, and TCP/IP.
- Experience with Embedded Linux development, kernel configuration, and driver development is highly desirable.
- Familiarity with hardware debugging tools including JTAG, SWD, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and serial protocol analyzers.
- Experience with Git, CI/CD pipelines, automated firmware builds, and version control systems.
- Strong understanding of software debugging, profiling, and optimization techniques.
- Experience using build systems such as CMake, Makefiles, or Bazel.
- Knowledge of secure coding practices for embedded systems.
- Experience working in Agile Scrum development environments.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience developing software for automotive, aerospace, medical devices, industrial automation, robotics, or IoT platforms.
- Familiarity with AUTOSAR, MISRA C/C++, ISO 26262, IEC 61508, DO-178C, IEC 62304, or other industry safety standards.
- Experience with Yocto Project, Buildroot, or custom Embedded Linux distributions.
- Knowledge of wireless communication technologies including Wi-Fi, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), Zigbee, LoRaWAN, or Cellular IoT.
- Experience implementing secure boot, TPM integration, Trusted Execution Environment (TEE), and firmware signing.
- Familiarity with FPGA integration and hardware acceleration.
- Experience using Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, or GitLab CI for firmware automation.
- Knowledge of Python or Shell scripting for test automation and manufacturing support.
- Experience with cloud-connected IoT platforms including AWS IoT Core, Azure IoT Hub, or Google Cloud IoT.
- Embedded systems certifications or contributions to open-source embedded projects are highly desirable.
Project Environment
You will be joining an embedded engineering team developing next-generation intelligent devices and connected systems supporting enterprise and industrial customers. Current initiatives include:
- Industrial IoT gateways and edge computing platforms
- Smart manufacturing and factory automation controllers
- Automotive electronic control units (ECUs)
- Medical monitoring and diagnostic devices
- Connected consumer electronics and smart home devices
- Wireless sensor networks and edge AI platforms
- Embedded Linux networking appliances
- Secure firmware platforms supporting OTA (Over-the-Air) software updates
- High-performance embedded systems deployed across mission-critical environments
