Elite Corporate Solutions is seeking an experienced Embedded Software Engineer to support the development of firmware and embedded software for advanced imaging and AI-enabled systems. This opportunity will focus on embedded architecture, microcontroller and RTOS development, Embedded Linux, real-time image processing, and multispectral camera integration while providing technical guidance and mentorship to engineering teams. Responsibilities Define software and firmware architecture for microcontroller and application-processor platforms using FreeRTOS, Zephyr, and Embedded Linux. Develop production-quality C/C++ firmware, device drivers, board support packages (BSPs), middleware, and applications. Lead board bring-up, bootloader development, peripheral integration, and hardware/software debugging. Design real-time systems with reliable task scheduling, interrupt handling, synchronization, and inter-task communication. Integrate cameras and sensors across the imaging spectrum, from visible light to LWIR, including sensor control, acquisition, synchronization, and calibration. Develop and optimize image signal processing (ISP) pipelines for image quality, low latency, and efficient use of embedded resources. Develop, integrate, and deploy AI/ML algorithms at the edge for ISP functions such as image enhancement, denoising, and detail restoration. Implement and optimize image fusion algorithms that combine complementary information from visible and thermal cameras. Address multi-camera image registration, alignment, synchronization, and real-time processing requirements. Develop Linux camera and multimedia components using

V4L2, ISP

pipelines, and GStreamer where applicable. Deploy and optimize AI/ML inference workloads on NPUs and other supported embedded accelerators. Optimize latency, throughput, memory usage, startup time, power consumption, and system reliability. Develop secure boot, firmware update, OTA, diagnostic, and recovery capabilities. Lead technical reviews, mentor engineers, and drive development from prototype through production. Required Qualifications 10+ years of embedded software or firmware development experience, including technical leadership on complex products. Strong C and C++ programming skills for resource-constrained embedded systems. Deep expertise in RTOS-based development or Embedded Linux, with the ability to work across platforms. Our designs use FreeRTOS, Zephyr, and Embedded Linux; expertise in all three is not required. Strong understanding of real-time scheduling, interrupts, concurrency, synchronization, and memory management. Hands-on experience with device drivers, BSP development, board bring-up, and hardware/software integration. Experience with microcontrollers, microprocessors, and ARM-based platforms. Working knowledge of interfaces such as I2C, SPI, UART, USB, I2S, or PCIe. Practical debugging experience using GDB, JTAG/SWD, oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers. Demonstrated ability to resolve system-level performance, power, and reliability issues. Ability to set technical direction, mentor engineers, and communicate effectively across disciplines.
