Write, review, and maintain embedded firmware for microcontrollers, sensors, wireless modules, etc. Review and provide feedback on PCB design and schematics. Design and implement low-level drivers and real-time applications. Interface with hardware peripherals (WiFi, Bluetooth, Ethernet). Drive development and optimization for bootloaders and/or bare-metal systems. Develop and maintain firmware development pipelines, debugging, and testing tools. Work closely with QA to define validation and test strategies for hardware and firmware. Ensure products comply with regulatory standards (e.g., FCC, CE, ISO, UL). Qualifications
Must Have: 5+ years of experience in embedded systems design, with at least 1–2 years in a technical leadership role. Strong programming skills in
C/C++
for embedded systems. Scripting experience (e.g., Python, Bash). Deep understanding of PIC32MZ microcontroller architecture (e.g., MPLabX/Harmony Framework). Experience with onboard processors using Buildroot Linux. Yocto build layers, recipes, and machine configurations. Experience with hardware interfaces, peripherals, and communication protocols (UART, SPI, I2C, CAN). Knowledge of RTOS (e.g., FreeRTOS, Zephyr) and real-time application design. Experience with networking stacks and protocols, including IoT (TCP/IP, UDP, MQTT, CoAP, DHCP, HTTP/REST). Familiarity with digital and analog circuit design, schematics, and board bring-up. Experience with debugging tools such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, and Wireshark. Knowledge of firmware deployment, U-Boot, and OTA update concepts.
