Embedded Software Engineer

Position Overview

The Embedded Software Engineer will design, develop, and optimize software for embedded systems, with a strong focus on real-time performance and system reliability. This role involves close collaboration with cross-functional engineering teams to bring intelligent hardware to life. Experience with unmanned vehicular systems is a strong plus, especially for candidates interested in autonomy and control systems.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain embedded software using C/C++ for real-time systems
• Work with RTOS environments to build responsive, deterministic applications
• Contribute to embedded systems architecture, including hardware-software integration
• Develop and debug low-level drivers, communication protocols, and system interfaces
• Collaborate with hardware, controls, and systems engineers to define requirements and ensure seamless integration
• Optimize system performance, memory usage, and power efficiency
• Support system testing, validation, and troubleshooting in both lab and field environments
• Document software design, architecture, and test procedures

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
• Minimum of 3 years of experience in embedded software development
• Strong proficiency in C/C++ programming
• Experience working with Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS)
• Solid understanding of embedded systems architecture, including microcontrollers and peripherals
• Familiarity with debugging tools, version control systems, and development workflows

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience developing software for unmanned vehicular systems (e.g., drones, autonomous ground vehicles, robotics)
• Knowledge of communication protocols such as SPI, I2C, UART, CAN, or Ethernet
• Exposure to control systems, sensor integration, or real-time data processing
• Familiarity with safety-critical or high-reliability systems
