Job Summary

We are seeking an experienced Embedded Firmware Engineer to lead the development of next-generation industrial communication and motion control systems. This role focuses on bridging high-speed fieldbus protocols with advanced servo control algorithms through modular software architecture.

Key Responsibilities

Modular Communication Design: Design and implement modular firmware frameworks for real-time industrial protocols (EtherCAT PROFINET OPC UA FX). Ensure communication stacks are abstracted from hardware to allow for scalability and rapid deployment across different MCU platforms.
Servo & Motion Optimization: Develop and refine firmware modules to improve servo control performance including latency reduction jitter optimization and high-frequency control loop tuning.
Embedded Development: Write test and certify C/C code for embedded systems ensuring seamless integration between communication layers and motor control hardware.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with hardware and firmware engineers to optimize system performance.
Tooling & Testing: Build internal debug tools and automated unit tests to validate both communication stability and motion precision.
Code Quality: Participate code reviews to maintain high standards for modularity reusability and documentation.

Qualifications :

Education: Bachelors or Masters degree in Electrical Engineering Computer Science Mechatronics or a related field.
Core Experience: * 3 years of professional C/C experience in an embedded environment.
- Deep understanding of MCU peripherals (GPIO SPI/I2C PWM Interrupts UART Parallel bus and DMA).
Operating Systems: Proven experience with FreeRTOS.
Domain Expertise:
- Strong understanding of Modular Software Design (Object-Oriented C or Design Patterns) to decouple protocol stacks from application logic.
- Experience with Motion Control or Servo Systems (e.g. PID tuning FOC or trajectory planning) is highly preferred.
Communication: Fluent in English (written and oral) and able to collaborate with global teams and certification bodies.
