Job Description

Lead Embedded Hardware Engineer

Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas | $120,000 - $150,000

Build Products. Solve Hard Problems. Shape What's Next.

We're looking for a Lead Embedded Hardware Engineer who loves building things.

Not someone who wants to maintain legacy products. Not someone who only owns one small piece of a design. We're looking for an engineer who enjoys taking ideas from concept through to production and wants to have a genuine impact on the products they create.

You'll work on sophisticated embedded electronic systems involving high-speed digital hardware, mixed-signal design, custom control boards, advanced processors, and connected devices. One project may involve a simple microcontroller-based design; the next could involve a high-performance MPU platform, complex interfaces, and challenging signal integrity requirements.



This is a hands-on technical role where you'll be trusted to make engineering decisions, solve difficult problems, and help shape the future direction of products
