Job Description
About Raiton Semiconductor
Founded in 2018 and headquartered in Bengaluru, Raiton Semiconductor is a specialized semiconductor services company. We provide ASIC/FPGA design, hardware verification, and pre- & post-silicon validation , along with FPGA/HLS prototyping for next-generation SoCs. Our end-to-end expertise enables faster development cycles, reduced costs, and high-quality, reliable chip solutions for global clients.
About Role
We are seeking a skilled Bare Metal Firmware Engineer with hands-on experience in developing low-level software for ARM and RISC-V architectures. The candidate will be responsible for writing, optimizing, and debugging firmware that interacts directly with hardware, ensuring performance, stability, and power efficiency in embedded systems and SoCs.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, develop, and maintain bare-metal firmware on ARM Cortex-M/A and RISC-V cores.
- Implement bootloaders, board bring-up, and low-level drivers (UART, SPI, I2C, GPIO, timers, watchdog, interrupts, etc.).
- Work closely with hardware teams to validate SoC/IP functionality, perform board bring-up, and support silicon validation.
- Debug hardware/software issues using JTAG, GDB, logic analyzers, and oscilloscopes.
- Develop firmware for power management, clock management, and low-power states.
- Contribute to secure boot, memory protection, and exception handling implementations.
- Optimize firmware for performance, latency, and memory footprint.
- Write unit tests, validation frameworks, and documentation for developed firmware.
-
Collaborate with cross-functional teams (hardware, DV, system architects, and verification) to ensure end-to-end system integration.
- 4+ years of professional experience in embedded firmware development.
- Strong knowledge of ARM Cortex-M/A architecture and RISC-V ISA.
- Hands-on experience with bare-metal programming (no RTOS).
- Proficiency in C, C++, and Assembly for embedded platforms.
- Deep understanding of memory maps, MMU/MPU, cache, and exception handling.
- Experience with bootloaders, startup code, linker scripts, and memory initialization.
- Familiarity with AHB/APB bus protocols and low-level peripheral programming.
- Strong debugging skills with JTAG/SWD, GDB, Lauterbach, OpenOCD.
- Exposure to SoC bring-up and pre/post-silicon validation.
- Knowledge of version control (Git), CI/CD flows, and code quality practices.
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.
