Embedded Software Engineer Responsibilities:
- Design and implement components at all layers of the system, e.g. kernel, synchronization primitives, resource allocators, memory management, security, I/O systems, persistence, etc
- Design and implement drivers and services that operate efficiently in a constrained environment yet when pressed can efficiently deliver large volumes of data with low-latency and high-bandwidth
- Own the definition of one or more work streams focused on hardware bring-up, peripheral drivers and communication, silicon integration and power and performance management and optimization
- Debug complex, system-level, multi-component issues that typically span across multiple layers from kernel to application
- Profile performance problems and drive optimizations that span the entire software stack
- Bring up new devices and lead debugging and performance tuning exercises that span multiple hardware/firmware/software teams
-
Understand software components from multiple partner teams, lead the integration of those components into the unified product code base, and drive their continued development
- 5+ years Software Engineering experience in the following: device driver development, embedded systems, or operating systems
- 5+ years experience working on systems software in a large-scale C/C++ code base
- Experience with Software Development processes including: source control, bug tracking, and design documentation
- Experience in hardware bringup using interfaces like ADC, GPIO, SPI, I2C, etc
- Experience in multiple of the following areas: BSP/Board Support Package, Operating Systems, Android OS, RTOS, Bootloader, Power Management, Linux, Graphics and Display Drivers, MCU (Microcontroller)
-
Experience developing, debugging, and shipping software products on large code bases that span platforms and tools
- Practical experience in bringing up Qualcomm mobile platform for complex consumer devices, involving BSP/Board Support Package, Android OS, device security and factory build support
-
Demonstrated experience working collaboratively in cross-functional teams

Senior Embedded Software Engineer
@ Embedd 
What we're looking for
At embedd.it, we power hardware-software integration in embedded devices. We turn fragmented semiconductor chip data into configurable digital twins, then deterministically generate code, tests, and documentation – making integration faster, cheaper, and resilient to supply chain shocks.
We’re looking for a true legend – someone with abstract thinking and deep expertise in low-level software development. You’ll build vendor-agnostic tooling for MCU and peripheral integration to solve hardware-software integration once and for all. We work at the intersection of embedded systems, code generation, compilers, and machine learning. It’s your chance to help redefine how low-level development is done.
Responsibilities
- Drive the architecture of the driver structures and system layout
- Define scalable patterns for cross-architectural integration across bare-metal, Zephyr, Linux, and other environments
- Deconstruct complex SoC device trees and translate hardware descriptions into structured internal models for automated reasoning
- Partner with the ML team to shape data and annotation models for AI-driven data-extraction tooling
Qualifications
- 5+ years of experience in embedded systems development, including bare-metal and RTOS-based systems
- Proficiency in C/C++
- Familiarity with firmware configuration, SoC bring-up, and system-level debugging
- Hands-on experience with code generation tools, or low-level compiler/decompiler/emulator technologies
- Strong background in embedded toolchains: compilers, linkers, debuggers, and build systems
- Python or scripting for automation and tooling is a plus
- Experience with functional-safety standards is a plus
Why embedd.it?
- Dynamic, venture-backed team of engineers challenging the status quo 🚀
- Work at the intersection of embedded systems, code generators, compilers, and ML 🤖
- Unusual challenges requiring out-of-the-box abstract thinking 🧠
- Competitive compensation: cash + equity 💰
- Remote work possible 🌍
About Us
embedd.it is a UK-based startup reinventing embedded development. Our platform transforms unstructured semiconductor data into structured digital twins, enabling automatic generation of drivers, tests, and documentation. We're building a single, traceable source of truth to make integration fast, vendor-agnostic, and future-proof.
