Embedded Application Engineer

Key Responsibilities

Design, develop, and maintain application software for Embedded Linux platforms—building solutions that power mission-critical systems.
Write clean, efficient, and maintainable code using Go, Rust, or C++, with a focus on performance, reliability, and security.
Collaborate closely with cross-functional engineering teams (hardware, systems, QA) to define architecture and bring new features to life—turning bold ideas into production-ready software.
Debug, optimize, and enhance software performance and reliability, ensuring seamless operation across diverse embedded environments.
Participate actively in code reviews and help evolve engineering standards and best practices across the team.
Communicate technical concepts clearly and confidently to engineers, product leaders, and stakeholders—bridging gaps between design and deployment.

Required Qualifications

4+ years (Engineer) or 7–8 years (Senior Engineer) of hands-on embedded software development experience.
Strong programming skills in Go, Rust, or C++—with a passion for writing elegant, maintainable code.
Candidates with a primary background in C must also have solid C++ experience.
Proven experience working with Embedded Linux in application-layer contexts.
Experience designing and implementing application-layer software for resource-constrained embedded systems.
Strong problem-solving, debugging, and systems-thinking abilities.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills—essential for collaboration and knowledge sharing.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with Yocto or other embedded Linux build systems (e.g., Buildroot, OpenWrt).
Experience architecting or contributing to complex embedded software systems at scale.
Prior experience at high-performing engineering organizations such as Google, Apple, Meta, Rivian, or similar—where engineering excellence meets product impact.
Domain knowledge in energy or aerospace industries—especially relevant for roles focused on sustainability or mission-critical applications.

Notes

This role focuses on application-layer software. Candidates whose experience is primarily in kernel, OS, or driver development may not be the best fit.
