Job Summary
We are seeking a highly skilled Embedded Software Developer to join our engineering team developing embedded and connected systems across automotive, industrial, IoT, and AI-enabled applications.

This role involves hands-on development of embedded firmware and software, architecture contribution, system integration, debugging, and collaboration across software, hardware, requirements, and validation teams. The ideal candidate combines strong low-level programming expertise with the ability to work effectively in large and complex codebases while contributing to high-quality, production-ready solutions.

You will work on technically challenging projects involving microcontrollers, RTOS, communication stacks, diagnostics, hardware integration, and system-level validation.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design, develop, test, and maintain embedded firmware/software in C and C++
  • Contribute to software architecture, technical design, and implementation decisions
  • Integrate and troubleshoot communication protocols such as CAN, LIN, SPI, I2C, UART, Ethernet, BLE, and related interfaces
  • Collaborate with hardware, system, requirements, and test teams to deliver robust and scalable solutions
  • Participate in platform bring-up, debugging, performance tuning, and system integration activities
  • Develop reliable and maintainable code using unit testing, static analysis, and automated validation practices
  • Participate in code reviews, design reviews, and technical discussions
  • Support development and maintenance of CI/CD pipelines, build systems, and automated test environments
  • Investigate and resolve complex system-level and firmware-related issues
  • Produce clear technical documentation and follow established development processes and standards

Qualifications & Experience

  • Minimum 7 years of experience in embedded software or firmware development
  • Automotive industry experience is highly valued but not required
  • Strong proficiency in C and C++ programming
  • Experience working with microcontroller-based embedded systems and resource-constrained environments
  • Strong understanding of Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS) and/or bare-metal embedded development
  • Experience working with communication protocols such as CAN, LIN, SPI, I2C, UART, Ethernet, BLE, or similar technologies
  • Ability to understand, debug, and extend large existing software systems and codebases
  • Strong debugging and troubleshooting skills using tools such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, JTAG debuggers, and protocol analyzers
  • Experience with version control systems (Git), issue tracking tools, and CI/CD workflows
  • Familiarity with automated testing, unit testing, integration testing, and hardware-in-the-loop validation
  • Experience with bootloaders, firmware upgrade mechanisms, diagnostics and communication stacks is considered an asset
  • Experience developing software for Linux-based embedded systems is a plus
  • Experience in IoT, telecom, industrial automation, or AI-enabled systems is considered valuable
  • Strong communication, collaboration, and problem-solving skills
