** The Role
** We are seeking an experienced
** Senior Firmware Engineer
** to join our high-performing engineering team developing electric metering products. You will contribute to the architecture, development, optimization, and maintenance of high-volume embedded products while working in a fast-paced environment that values technical excellence and innovation. In this role, you will develop embedded C firmware for ARM-based platforms, create Java software for custom runtime environments, and drive improvements in product quality, testing, and development processes.
** Core Responsibilities
*** Design, develop, and maintain embedded firmware for ARM-based microcontroller platforms used in high-volume electric metering products.
* Develop and optimize embedded C code, device drivers, hardware abstraction layers (HALs), and Java software for custom runtime environments.
* Collaborate with hardware and software teams to integrate and troubleshoot complex hardware-software systems.
* Design, implement, and support real-time embedded solutions utilizing RTOS environments.
* Develop automated build processes, unit testing frameworks, and CI/CD pipelines to improve development efficiency and code quality.
* Incorporate diagnostics, security features, manufacturing test capabilities, and design-for-test principles throughout the product lifecycle.
** Required Qualifications
*** B.S. or M.S. in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field.
* 5+ years of professional experience in embedded firmware development supporting mass-produced or high-volume products.
* Expert-level proficiency in embedded C programming, device drivers, and hardware abstraction layers (HALs).
* Strong Java programming experience within embedded or customized runtime environments.
* Deep understanding of ARM processor architectures, hardware-software integration, startup/shutdown sequences, sleep modes, external memory, and peripheral interfaces.
* Experience designing, optimizing, and troubleshooting firmware in embedded RTOS environments.
* Experience with SPI variants, I2C error handling, and inter-processor communication methods.
* Knowledge of Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and cellular communication technologies.
* Experience implementing firmware build automation, CI/CD processes, and automated unit testing frameworks.
* Experience with secure boot mechanisms, multi-stage bootloaders, and encryption technologies.
* Strong documentation, debugging, and testing skills with a focus on diagnostics and manufacturing testability.
** Preferred Qualifications
*** Experience developing firmware for metering, industrial, IoT, or other connected embedded products.
* Experience supporting products through full product lifecycle, from concept through mass production.
* Demonstrated ability to thrive in fast-paced, highly collaborative engineering environments focused on continuous learning and rapid execution.
