Senior Embedded Software Engineer

About this role: The Senior Embedded Software Engineer will lead the firmware design, implementation and test aspects of products throughout their entire lifecycle. The chosen candidate will own the software architecture and design execution, along with processes, tools, and metrics used for product development programs.

Key Responsibilities:

Translate high-level concepts into robust, maintainable firmware architectures. Capture and document requirements and rationale for regulated products to ensure traceability and compliance. Collaborate with hardware engineers to define and implement hardware/firmware integration strategies and diagnostic coverage. Work with Product Owners and stakeholders using Agile practices to maintain alignment and transparency throughout the development lifecycle. Adhere to and champion development processes, lead technical reviews, and implement source code that meets product requirements and complies with coding standards. Ensure all code is well-documented, rigorously tested, and version-controlled. Perform unit testing using tools such as IDEs, debuggers, emulators, communication analyzers, oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers. Provide work breakdown plans and task estimates to support project planning and tracking. Develop and implement risk mitigation strategies throughout the firmware development lifecycle.

Required Qualifications:

Bachelor s degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field. 5+ years of experience developing embedded software/firmware using C/C++. 2+ years of experience with Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS).

Preferred Qualifications:

Master s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related discipline. Background in regulated industries (e.g., medical, industrial safety, automotive). Experience with LonWorks (Local Operating Network, LON) protocols and devices. Skilled in using firmware debugging tools such as

JTAG/SWD

debuggers, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and protocol analyzers (e.g., UART, I2C, SPI, Ethernet). Proven ability to deliver firmware across the full development lifecycle-from requirements capture to design, implementation, and validation. Proficient in Agile development and DevOps tools such as Git, CI/CD pipelines, and automated testing frameworks. Experience contributing to FMEAs and implementing risk mitigation strategies in firmware. Strong communication and writing skills for collaboration with project stakeholders (Product Managers, Customers, and other Engineers). Skilled in collaborating with other engineers to distill market needs into defined technical requirements and system/subsystem/module architectures. Self-motivated with a proven track record of leading process improvement efforts.
