* Design, develop, test, debug, and optimize embedded firmware for microcontroller-based systems.
* Develop embedded software primarily in C/C++ for connected, low-power, and resource-constrained devices.
* Work across different embedded architectures, including bare-metal and RTOS-based systems.
* Develop and integrate firmware for wireless and connected products.
* Work with communication technologies and embedded interfaces such as I²C, SPI, GPIO, ADC, CAN, UART , and other hardware interfaces.
* Develop software for battery-powered and power-constrained products, considering performance, reliability, and power consumption.
* Work closely with hardware and electrical engineers throughout product development.
* Read and interpret schematics, datasheets, component specifications, and hardware documentation.
* Perform hands-on troubleshooting of embedded hardware and software issues.
* Diagnose system-level problems involving firmware, microcontrollers, peripherals, sensors, communication interfaces, and other electronic components.
* Use debugging and test equipment such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, multimeters, JTAG/SWD debuggers, and other laboratory equipment.
* Integrate and debug firmware with prototype and production hardware.
* Participate in firmware verification, testing, validation, and system-level troubleshooting.
* Analyze performance, reliability, timing, memory usage, and other embedded system characteristics.
* Contribute to software architecture, technical requirements, design decisions, and engineering documentation.
* Collaborate with software, hardware, electrical, mechanical, systems, manufacturing, and other engineering teams.
* Support products through development, integration, testing, and transition into production.
* Help identify root causes of complex technical issues and develop practical solutions. What You'll Bring
* Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science , or a related technical discipline.
* Approximately 5-10 years of professional experience in embedded systems, firmware development, or a related engineering discipline , or equivalent depth of hands-on experience.
* Strong programming experience in embedded C/C++ .
* Experience developing and debugging firmware for microcontrollers and embedded systems.
