Job Description

Job Summary:

We are seeking an Embedded Firmware Engineer with 4-8 years of experience in real-time embedded software development to design, develop, and validate firmware for UWB/NB modem, ranging, and radar systems. The ideal candidate will have strong expertise in Embedded C, microcontroller/SoC architectures, device drivers, HAL development, hardware bring-up, and system-level debugging, along with experience in communication protocols such as SPI, I2C, and UART. Knowledge of UWB technologies, modem software, DSP concepts, wireless PHY/MAC protocols, and ranging/radar applications is preferred. The role requires close collaboration with architecture, DSP, RF, and validation teams to deliver high-performance wireless connectivity solutions.


Job Qualification:

  • 4-8 years of experience in Firmware with Bachelors/Masters in EC/CS/EEE/IS.
  • Strong Embedded C programming skills with experience in real-time embedded systems.
  • Good understanding of microcontroller/SoC architectures, interrupts, DMA, timers, and memory management.
  • Experience in embedded software development for UWB/NB modem, or signal-processing systems.
  • Knowledge of software architecture, HAL/driver development, and hardware bring-up.
  • Familiarity with debugging tools such as JTAG, SWD, Trace32, logic analyzers, and oscilloscopes.
  • Understanding of communication protocols and interfaces such as SPI, I2C, UART, IPC, and mailbox mechanisms.
  • Strong problem-solving and system-level debugging skills.

Preferred / Domain-Specific Skills

  • Knowledge of Ultra-Wideband (UWB) and Narrowband (NB) communication systems.
  • Understanding of Ranging, Radar, and wireless PHY/MAC concepts.
  • Knowledge of IEEE 802.15.4z / 802.15.4ab and UWB ranging concepts
  • Experience with modem software
  • Familiarity with DSP signal-processing concepts for UWB ranging and radar applications
  • Exposure to automotive, industrial, or IoT wireless products.

Job Responsibilities

  • Design, develop, and maintain embedded software for modem - UWB/NB ranging, and radar subsystems.
  • Develop HAL, drivers, middleware, and system software for modem and RF control.
  • Integrate and validate BB, DSP, and RF components on silicon, FPGA, and simulation platforms.
  • Troubleshoot complex system-level issues spanning software, DSP and modem domains.
  • Collaborate with architecture, algorithm, DSP, RF, and validation teams to deliver scalable solutions.
