Embedded Software Engineer – Robotics (Senior/Staff Level)

We’re currently working with a cutting-edge robotics and automation team tackling real-world logistics challenges at massive scale. As they look to expand, they’re seeking a Senior or Staff Embedded Software Engineer to take ownership of firmware development across multiple robotic platforms.

This is a high-impact, hands-on role ideal for someone who thrives in cross-functional teams, enjoys low-level systems work, and wants to build products with tangible, physical-world outcomes.

What You'll Be Doing:

• Lead firmware bring-up for ARM-based microcontroller platforms (e.g., ARM Cortex-M).
• Design and implement embedded applications for motion control, power systems, telemetry, and safety-critical functionality.
• Write robust, maintainable, and well-documented C/C++ firmware.
• Collaborate closely with electrical and systems engineers on hardware bring-up, schematic reviews, and debugging.
• Own the development lifecycle for key embedded components—from board bring-up through validation and release.
• Contribute to system-level reliability, safety protocols, and long-term maintainability.

What We're Looking For:

• 8+ years of hands-on embedded development experience, including board bring-up and low-level debugging.
• Strong background in C/C++ for embedded systems, with deep experience in bare-metal programming.
• Proficiency with ARM-based microcontrollers and embedded communication protocols (I2C, SPI, UART, CAN).
• Solid understanding of hardware/software interfacing and digital electronics.
• Ability to work independently and collaboratively in high-ownership environments.

Bonus Points For:

• Experience with RTOS (e.g., FreeRTOS, Zephyr) or Embedded Linux on constrained systems.
• Background in motor control, power/battery systems, or robotics.
• Familiarity with safety-critical systems and fault-handling approaches.
• Startup or advanced R&D team experience, where adaptability and initiative are key.

If you're excited about solving real-world problems with elegant low-level solutions and want to be part of a highly experienced, mission-driven engineering team, we’d love to hear from you.
