Job Brief
We are looking for a Senior Embedded Software Engineer with 4+ years of hands-on experience in designing, developing, and deploying embedded software for real-time, safety-critical systems.
The ideal candidate will have strong expertise in microcontroller-based systems, RTOS, low-level drivers, and hardware-software integration, and will take ownership of embedded modules used in autonomous vehicles, robotics, and industrial AI platforms.
You will work closely with hardware, AI, robotics, and systems teams to deliver robust, production-grade embedded solutions.
Roles and Responsibilities
- Design, develop, and maintain embedded software architectures for production systems.
- Develop firmware for 32-bit microcontrollers (Microchip PIC32 and similar platforms).
- Implement, configure, and optimize RTOS-based systems (FreeRTOS or equivalent).
- Develop and maintain device drivers, BSPs, and hardware abstraction layers (HAL).
- Work closely with hardware teams during board bring-up, debugging, and validation.
- Optimize system performance, memory usage, latency, and power consumption.
- Debug complex issues using JTAG, logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, and in-circuit debuggers.
- Implement and maintain communication stacks (UART, SPI, I2C, CAN, Ethernet where applicable).
- Participate in design reviews, code reviews, and architecture discussions.
- Ensure compliance with coding standards, documentation, and version control practices.
- Support system testing, integration, and field deployments as required.
- Mentor junior engineers and contribute to technical best practices within the team.
Required Skills and Qualifications
