Senior Firmware Engineer

As Senior Firmware Engineer, you will be a key player in the architecture and the full lifecycle development of an AI platform system, including requirements, design, code, and test.

ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

• Demonstrate best practices in software development and documentation to deliver high-quality software on tight schedules while meeting all requirements.
• Actively engage in code reviews, discussions to share knowledge, and improve code quality
• Participate in gathering technical requirements, contributing to firmware and software design specifications
• Provide support to both internal and external SW and HW development teams
• Provide guidance on test plans for lab characterization once design comes back from fab

QUALIFICATIONS

• Bachelor s degree with 8+ years of experience, or Master s degree with 6+ years of experience in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Information Technology or a related technical field.
• At least 5 years of hands-on experience in firmware or embedded software development.
• Deep proficiency in C (required) and/or C++ (highly desired) for embedded systems.
• Demonstrated experience with microcontroller architectures (e.g., ARM Cortex-M/R/A, ESP32, RISC-V) and their peripherals. You understand the nuances of clocking, interrupts, DMA, and memory-mapped registers.
• Proven ability to debug complex hardware/firmware issues on the bench using:

• In-circuit debuggers (JTAG/SWD) with GDB.
• Oscilloscopes: Experience reading signal waveforms, verifying timing, and identifying glitches.
• Logic Analyzers: For decoding digital bus traffic (SPI, I2C, UART).
• Multimeters/Power Supplies: For basic electrical troubleshooting.

• Experience in writing bare-metal drivers and working directly with device registers.
• Familiarity with version control systems (Git preferred) and bug tracking tools.
• Strong problem-solving skills with an investigative, "get to the bottom of it" mindset.
• Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, for collaborating with hardware, QA, and software teams.
