Job Title

Join Dexcom Corporation, a pioneer and global leader in continuous glucose monitoring (CGM). We are broadening our vision beyond diabetes to empower people to take control of health.

We are driven by thousands of ambitious, passionate people worldwide who are willing to fight like warriors to earn the trust of our customers by listening, serving with integrity, thinking big, and being dependable. We've already changed millions of lives and we're ready to change millions more.

You will join a highly technical embedded systems and hardware engineering team responsible for building reliable, secure, and ultra-low-power platforms that power next-generation connected wearable devices.

Where you come in:

• Evaluate CGM system performance using prototype firmware, mobile application features, and experimental system configurations to characterize overall system behavior and performance.
• Perform BLE communication analysis using protocol sniffers, device logs, and diagnostic tools to identify issues and characterize wireless communication performance.
• Conduct power-impact analysis using Keysight power analyzers and related instrumentation to assess feature-level and system-level energy consumption.
• Investigate system anomalies, prototype feature issues, and production firmware or application defects, driving structured root-cause analysis and corrective actions.
• Develop and maintain automated test frameworks, fixture scripts, and engineering tools across Windows, macOS, and Linux environments to improve testing efficiency and repeatability.
• Create comprehensive test plans, detailed test procedures, and technical reports while presenting findings to engineering teams and leadership stakeholders.
• Develop prototype firmware features in C/C++, participate in code reviews, and contribute to architecture discussions supporting future CGM capabilities.
• Collaborate with systems, firmware, mobile application, quality, and external partner teams to define requirements, support verification activities, and evaluate interoperability across connected devices and applications.

What makes you successful:

• Strong experience in embedded systems, firmware development, system validation, or prototype evaluation.
• Proficiency in C/C++ software development with experience debugging and developing embedded firmware applications.
• Experience analyzing Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) communications using protocol sniffers, logs, and wireless diagnostic tools.
• Strong troubleshooting and root-cause analysis skills with the ability to investigate complex system-level issues spanning firmware, applications, and communications layers.
• Experience developing automated test tools, scripts, and frameworks using modern software engineering practices.
• Hands-on experience with laboratory instrumentation, power measurement equipment, and system characterization tools.
• Experience writing test plans, verification procedures, requirements documentation, and technical presentations for diverse audiences.
• Ability to work effectively across cross-functional teams and independently drive technical investigations from problem identification through resolution.

What you'll get:

• A front row seat to life changing CGM technology. Learn about our brave #dexcomwarriors community.
• A full and comprehensive benefits program.
• Growth opportunities on a global scale.
• Access to career development through in-house learning programs and/or qualified tuition reimbursement.
• An exciting and innovative, industry-leading organization committed to our employees, customers, and the communities we serve.
