Responsibilities:

Design, implement, and deliver firmware features end-to-end in C/C++ for bare-metal and embedded Linux platforms with limited supervision.

Own small firmware subsystems or components — including their testing, documentation, and maintenance.

Develop, integrate, and debug device drivers for peripherals such as sensors, radios, storage, and communication interfaces (I²C, SPI, UART, USB, CAN, Ethernet).Perform board bring-up tasks independently — including boot loader configuration, peripheral initialization, and hardware validation for known platform variants.

Implement and tune interrupt handlers, timers, and low-level scheduling mechanisms to achieve reliable, deterministic behavior. Use debugging and measurement tools — oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, JTAG/SWD, protocol analyzers — to diagnose and resolve hardware/firmware interaction issues independently. Collaborate with hardware engineers to review schematics and identify firmware-relevant design considerations.

Contribute to board support packages (BSPs), boot loader configuration, and OS integration for embedded Linux and RTOS-based systems.

Implement error handling, logging, and diagnostic capabilities for field debugging.

Write and maintain unit and integration tests for owned components, using test harnesses and hardware-in-the-loop setups where appropriate.

Participate actively in design discussions — proposing approaches, identifying tradeoffs, and asking clarifying questions.

Conduct peer code reviews with attention to correctness, performance, maintainability, and adherence to team standards.

Break down requirements into technical tasks and estimate work for sprint planning.

Participate fully in Scrum ceremonies and contribute to continuous improvement of team processes.

Mandatory Qualifications (Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities)
Professional experience developing embedded firmware for production or near-production hardware platforms.

Solid proficiency in C/C++ for embedded systems, including practical understanding of memory management, concurrency, and real-time constraints.

Experience developing and debugging device drivers for common embedded interfaces (GPIO, I²C, SPI, UART, USB).Hands-on experience with at least one microcontroller family (ARM Cortex-M, RISC-V, etc.) and familiarity with bare-metal development patterns.

Exposure to an RTOS (FreeRTOS, Zephyr, ThreadX) or embedded Linux distribution (Yocto, Buildroot).Practical experience with low-level debugging tools —…
