Work You'll Do As an Embedded Systems Developer/Engineer, you will contribute directly to the design, development, testing, and long-term maintenance of embedded software and firmware that runs on specialized hardware platforms. You'll help translate system requirements into implementable designs, build and integrate low-level components, and ensure the resulting solutions are deterministic, reliable, and performant in real-world operating conditions-often with tight constraints on memory, compute, power, and timing. In this role, you'll write efficient, high-quality C/C++ (or similar C-family) code (and, ideally, Rust) for firmware, drivers, and hardware-facing application logic. You'll work with senior engineers to make sound technical tradeoffs around real-time behavior, interrupt handling, concurrency, and resource management, and you'll contribute to establishing and following coding standards that support safety, maintainability, and portability across hardware variants. Where applicable, you'll support development on a real-time operating system (RTOS) or bare-metal environments and help validate system behavior under stress, edge cases, and fault conditions. You will actively participate in peer code reviews, debugging sessions, and root-cause analysis, strengthening the codebase through clear documentation, improved test coverage, and disciplined configuration management. You'll contribute to bring-up and integration activities-working closely with hardware engineers to interpret schematics, review board interfaces, validate peripherals, and troubleshoot issues using tools such as JTAG, logic analyzers, and oscilloscopes. You'll also support build and release workflows, including cross-compilation toolchains, continuous integration, and packaging of firmware images.
