Who You Are:
We are seeking a Senior Embedded Software Engineer to join our team and own all of Dusty's firmware and low level software development efforts. You will be working cross functionally with our hardware and robotics teams to create specifications and deliver innovative solutions that will advance the world's most accurate autonomous printing solution.
What You'll Do:
You'll collaborate with mechanical, electrical, and robotics engineers, to deliver features that will advance the state of the art in robotic printing. You'll also work with other engineering leads to create specifications and design new systems from the ground up. Prior experience with robotics or construction is not required.
Position Summary:
As a Senior Embedded Software Engineer at Dusty Robotics, you will play a critical role in both advancing the firmware that powers our robotic systems and building new systems from the ground up. You'll be working on a cross functional team of mechanical, electrical, robotics, and controls engineers and own the firmware and radio components of all projects. Your work will directly impact the reliability and performance of our robots.
Core Responsibilities:
Embedded Firmware and Software Development

  • Advance the capabilities of our core product and design and develop firmware from the ground up for new products for robotic automation.
  • Work with ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers to create robust, low-level C/C++ interfaces with hardware components within an RTOS environment (e.g., sensors, motors, controllers).
  • Develop embedded Linux software for ARM Cortex-A MCUs, including power-efficient and real-time performance optimizations.
  • Build communication protocol stacks over Ethernet, EtherCAT, CAN, UART, SPI, and I2C networks.
  • Implement wireless protocol stacks, including WiFi, LoRa, and BLE.
  • Develop efficient firmware for robotic sensors (e.g., IMUs, gyroscopes, cameras)
  • Develop test scripts using Python code and validation platforms for embedded systems
Cross-functional Collaboration
  • Assist with initial hardware bring-up and validation testing.
  • Contribute to power management architecture and implement system power policies in firmware.
  • Work with our controls and robot engineers to develop firmware for control systems (e.g., motor controllers, stepper motors, and system level controls).
  • Maintain comprehensive documentation, including design specifications, APIs, and troubleshooting procedures.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to debug system-level issues and ensure seamless integration.
  • Support field teams with diagnostics and troubleshooting during deployment or testing.
Preferred Qualifications:
  • 7+ years of experience developing production level embedded code
  • Proven experience in embedded firmware development, particularly with ARM Cortex-M
  • and Cortex-A platforms.
  • Proficiency in programming languages, including C, C++, and python.
  • Hands-on experience with RTOS, embedded Linux, and communication protocols.
  • Ability to write clear requirements and design documentation.
  • Plan work around software sprints using JIRA to document tasks.
  • Understand testing for production level code and release processes
  • Familiarity with tools like Keil, IAR, Eclipse, Make, and CMake.
Key Attributes:
  • Detail-oriented with a strong focus on real-time performance, power efficiency, and robust error handling.
  • Collaborative team player capable of working across mechanical, electrical, and software domains.
  • Able to organize work in a logical and systematic manner with good time management and estimation skills
  • Passionate about innovation and staying updated on advancements in robotics and embedded systems.
Why You Should Join:
In joining our team, you'll become an important part of a small and fast-growing company. We are daring to accomplish something big, do you want to be a critical part of Dusty's success? We are deeply committed to our mission, and we believe in removing roadblocks that distract us from reaching our goals.
