Senior Embedded Software Engineer1

Job Title: Senior Embedded Software Engineer

Job Description

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.

• 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.

• Bachelors 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).

• Masters degree in Engineering Computer Science or a related discipline.
• Background in regulated industries (e.g. medical industrial safety automotive).
• Experience with HART (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer) 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 effort
• HART protocol can be found in the process control industry. Experience with these protocols is a nice-to-have but not required.

Key Responsibilities

• Integrate middleware and perform advanced debugging activities.
• Participate in the full development lifecycle:
  requirements gathering firmware implementation testing debugging.
• Collaborate closely with firmware engineers systems engineers and electrical engineering teams.

Required Experience

• Strong background in C programming.
• Proven experience in RTOS and embedded systems environments.
• Demonstrated ability in debugging
• Excellent communication skills and strong cross-functional collaboration.

Preferred Experience (Nice-to-Haves)

• Familiarity with HART and/or LON protocols.
• Experience in regulated industries.
• Senior level background: 5 15 years preferred open to Principal-level candidates.
