Senior Engineer, Embedded Software

We are seeking a Senior Embedded Software Developer to design and develop production-grade software for automotive IoT telemetry, embedded gateway, and intelligent battery-sensing products. This role spans heterogeneous embedded platforms, including bare-metal and RTOS-based ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers, embedded Linux on ARM Cortex-A processors, and machine-learning workloads running on dedicated NPUs.

The successful candidate will contribute across the complete embedded software lifecycle—from hardware bring-up and low-level drivers to custom Linux distributions, connected applications, real-time firmware, and edge-ML integration. Target platforms include modern multicore SoCs such as the NXP i.MX 9 family
, combining Linux application processors, real-time microcontroller cores, and neural processing accelerators.

• Architect, design, implement, test, and maintain embedded software for automotive telemetry gateways and intelligent battery sensors.
• Develop bare-metal C/C++ firmware for ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers.
• Develop real-time applications using Zephyr RTOS and FreeRTOS
  , including tasks, synchronization, interrupt handling, timing, and resource management.
• Develop Board Support Packages, boot code, peripheral drivers, and hardware abstraction layers.
• Build and maintain custom embedded Linux distributions using the Yocto Project
  , including:
  • Bit Bake recipes and layers
  • Machine and distribution configurations
  • Kernel, boot loader, device-tree, and driver integration
  • Package selection, image generation, and update strategies
  • Reproducible build and release processes
• Develop Linux userspace services and applications for LTE-connected automotive gateways.
• Develop software for heterogeneous SoCs containing ARM Cortex-A, ARM Cortex-M, and NPU cores.
• Design communication and coordination between Linux, RTOS, and accelerator domains using mechanisms such as RPMsg, OpenAMP, shared memory, IPC, and vendor-provided frameworks.
• Integrate and optimize machine-learning inference workloads for NPUs and other edge accelerators.
• Develop telemetry data acquisition, processing, storage, and secure cloud-communication pipelines.
• Develop firmware for intelligent battery sensors and analog front ends that measure battery voltage, current, and temperature.
• Implement or integrate algorithms supporting battery State of Charge (SOC) and State of Health (SOH) estimation.
• Integrate LTE modems, GNSS receivers, sensors, vehicle networks, and other gateway peripherals.
• Implement robust fault detection, diagnostics, logging, watchdog, recovery, and over-the-air update capabilities.
• Analyze system performance, memory utilization, timing, power consumption, and communication reliability.
• Debug complex hardware/software and multicore issues using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, JTAG/SWD debuggers, trace tools, and protocol analyzers.
• Produce software requirements, architecture documents, interface specifications, design documentation, and verification evidence.
• Conduct code and design reviews and mentor other embedded software developers.
• Collaborate with systems, hardware, cloud, data science, cybersecurity, validation, manufacturing, and product teams.
• Support prototype development, system integration, vehicle testing, production launch, and field-issue resolution.

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related discipline.
• 5+ years of professional embedded software development experience
  .
• Expert-level proficiency in embedded C and C++.
• Strong experience developing bare-metal firmware for ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers.
• Production experience with at least one embedded RTOS, preferably Zephyr or FreeRTOS
  .
• Strong understanding of:
  • Interrupt…
