Embedded Software Engineer

As an Embedded Software Engineer - Connectivity, you will be responsible for building and sustaining the connectivity layer between embedded medical devices and cloud platforms. This includes enabling reliable data exchange, remote monitoring, and command/control capabilities in a mission-critical, regulated environment.

You will work at the intersection of embedded firmware, networking, and cloud integration, ensuring high reliability, performance, and compliance of connectivity features across the product lifecycle.

• Designing and developing device-to-cloud connectivity modules for embedded systems
• Implementing and maintaining MQTT-based communication for telemetry, alerts, and command/control flows
• Developing embedded software using C++ on RTOS platforms (QNX or similar)
• Integrating and optimizing networking stacks (TCP/IP, sockets, secure protocols)
• Ensuring robustness, fault tolerance, and predictable behavior in real-time environments
• Collaborating with cloud, firmware, and QA/RA teams for end-to-end solution delivery
• Supporting debugging of field issues (connectivity drops, latency, data inconsistencies) across device and cloud layers
• Contributing to design documentation, traceability, and compliance artifacts (aligned with regulated environments)

• 8+ years of experience in embedded software development (C++)
• Strong experience with embedded networking (TCP/IP, sockets, protocols)
• Hands-on experience with MQTT or similar messaging protocols
• Experience working with RTOS environments (QNX, VxWorks, Embedded Linux, etc.)
• Solid debugging experience across system-level issues (device + network + backend interactions)
• Strong problem-solving, communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills

• Experience in medical devices or other regulated domains (IEC 62304 exposure is a plus)
• Familiarity with secure communication (TLS, certificates, device authentication)
• Experience integrating embedded devices with Cellular / Wi-Fi routers for IoT
• Experience with device-cloud architecture, IoT platforms, or remote monitoring systems
• Exposure to system integration, verification & validation activities
• Experience working in multi-repo embedded environments and CI/CD pipelines
• Experience with QNX-based platforms (or similar safety-critical RTOS)
• Exposure to BLE, IoT gateways, or edge compute patterns
• Experience troubleshooting real-world deployment / field connectivity issues
