Embedded Developer

About The Opportunity

A fast-scaling engineering firm in the Embedded Systems & IoT product development sector, we build mission-critical firmware and low-level software for smart devices, industrial automation, and edge computing hardware. Our embedded engineers work at the intersection of hardware and software — delivering real-time, resource-constrained solutions that power next-gen connected products trusted by global Tier-1 clients.

Role & Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and debug embedded C/C++ applications for microcontrollers (ARM, AVR, PIC, ESP32) and real-time systems.
• Develop and maintain device drivers, bootloaders, and communication protocol implementations (UART, SPI, I2C, CAN, RS485) for custom and off-the-shelf hardware.
• Optimize firmware for memory footprint, power efficiency, and performance—ensuring deterministic execution in resource-constrained environments.
• Integrate and configure RTOS environments (FreeRTOS, Zephyr, ucOS), including task scheduling, interrupt handling, and synchronization mechanisms.
• Collaborate closely with hardware engineers to validate schematics, debug PCB-level issues, and perform board bring-up and validation.
• Write and automate unit/integration test scripts, maintain test coverage documentation, and ensure design traceability and long-term maintainability.
  
  

Qualifications & Experience

Required Qualifications

• 2–5 years of professional experience in embedded systems development.
• Hands-on experience developing Linux device drivers (character, block, or network).
• Proficiency in embedded C and C++ programming for microcontroller-based systems.
• Strong understanding of ARM Cortex-M architecture and low-level hardware interaction.
• Experience working with real-time operating systems (RTOS), including FreeRTOS, Zephyr, or similar.
• Working knowledge of common embedded communication protocols: UART, SPI, I2C, CAN, RS485.
  
  

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with ESP32 (dual-core, Wi-Fi/BLE stack, Arduino IDF, or ESP-IDF).
• Familiarity with debugging tools such as logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, and JTAG/SWD interfaces.
• Knowledge of secure boot, firmware updates (OTA), and embedded security best practices.
• Experience with version control (Git), CI/CD pipelines for embedded builds, and automated testing frameworks.
  
  

Benefits & Culture Highlights

• Work on cutting-edge embedded projects with global product teams — no generic maintenance work.
• Access to hands-on hardware labs, latest development kits, and direct engagement with silicon partners for deep technical learning.
• Clear career progression paths with both technical ladder and leadership tracks — we grow our engineers, not just projects.
