Embedded Engineer

Position Overview

We are seeking an Embedded Software Engineer to design, develop, test, and support embedded and PC-based software solutions. This role focuses on firmware and application development across microcontroller platforms and real time systems, with responsibilities spanning embedded controller development, system integration, software validation, and cross-functional collaboration.

Essential Job Functions

• Develop embedded software for microcontroller-based systems using both bare metal and real time operating systems.
• Create board bring up code, device drivers, boot loaders, firmware update mechanisms, and software interfaces for sensors and peripherals.
• Design, implement, test, and debug embedded device controllers and related software components.
• Develop PC applications that support diagnostics, device testing, production testing, and test automation.
• Conduct unit tests, integration tests, system level debugging, and code reviews to ensure quality and reliability.
• Diagnose and resolve hardware and software issues in real time environments.
• Integrate software modules, third party libraries, and APIs into existing or new systems.
• Perform software validation, functional testing, and system compatibility checks across environments.
• Ensure compliance with applicable safety standards, industry norms, and internal policies.
• Optimize software for performance, memory utilization, and power efficiency.
• Support planning, task definition, and estimation as part of development efforts.
• Collaborate with engineering teams (electrical, mechanical, quality) to ensure seamless product integration.
• Analyze, document, and track software defects and improvements to resolution.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of development processes, tools, and procedures.
• Support software deployment, configuration, and technical requirements.
• Use version control (e.g., Git), build systems, and CI/CD workflows to streamline development.
• Assist production teams in troubleshooting and improving system performance.
• Provide engineering support where needed across departments.
• Perform additional engineering duties as assigned.

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field.
• 5+ years of hands-on experience in embedded systems development.
• Proficiency in C or C++ programming with experience in multithreaded code and hardware-software integration.
• Experience with microcontrollers (Cortex-M family preferred) in both real time operating system and bare metal environments.
• Experience with board bring up and developing low-level drivers for interfaces such as SPI, I2C, UART, ADC, DAC, USB, and display interfaces.
• Practical experience with debugging tools and test equipment (e.g., JTAG, GDB, logic analyzers, scopes).
• 2+ years of developing PC-based applications using C# and integrating with databases.
• Familiarity with setting up toolchains, build systems, and debugging environments.
• Knowledge of software engineering best practices and tools, including version control and issue tracking.
• Ability to read and interpret schematics, datasheets, and hardware documentation.
• Strong problem solving, debugging, and analytical skills.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
• A positive attitude and ability to work collaboratively in team environments.
