Position Summary

We're seeking a Software Engineer to develop and support software systems that interface closely with mechanical and electrical components. This role sits at the intersection of software and hardware, requiring strong collaboration between teams. The ideal candidate has experience in embedded systems, machine control, motor driver integration, and is comfortable working in a hands‑on, multidisciplinary environment.

• Design, develop, and maintain software for embedded systems in C/C++.
• Collaborate closely with mechanical and electrical engineers.
• Develop software for motor control systems, including integration with motor drivers and controllers.
• Interface with hardware components such as sensors, actuators, and communication buses (CAN, SPI, I2C, UART, etc.).
• Support system bring‑up, debugging, and testing.
• Write clean, maintainable, and well‑documented code.
• Participate in design reviews and cross‑functional problem‑solving.
• Support field personnel and respond to issues in the field.
