🧙♂️ senior
Job Role:
The RF Embedded Software Engineer is responsible for implementing advanced digital and signal processing algorithms in real-time computing environments, primarily using FPGAs-based systems, ARM-based processors and host processing systems. The role involves working with a cross-functional team developing RF systems to create product prototypes.
Job Responsibilities:
- Design and implement FPGA-based signal processing pipelines on RFSoC platforms for real-time acquisition and streaming.
- Develop and optimize FPGA workflows using LabVIEW FPGA for USRPs and PXI-based systems.
- Assist in designing SDR-based solutions for wireless communications, signal generation, and high-speed data streaming using GNU Radio and LabVIEW.
- Implement FIFO-based communication architectures between FPGA logic, embedded processors, and host systems for high-throughput data handling.
- Integrate and manage peripheral interfaces (I²C, UART, SPI, AXI) for control and monitoring of external hardware.
- Translate DSP and communication algorithms into efficient FPGA hardware pipelines.
- Validate system performance through simulation, hardware-in-the-loop testing, and lab instrumentation.
-
Document FPGA architectures, workflows, and experimental outcomes for reproducibility and scalability
- Bachelor or Master degree in communication, software, electronics or related engineering discipline
- Minimum five years of industrial experience
- Proven hands-on experience with FPGA development, preferably on RFSoC-based systems.
- Strong expertise with LabVIEW FPGA for SDR and high-speed data acquisition platforms (USRPs, PXI).
- Experience with wireless communications systems and real-time data processing.
- Hands-on experience with high-speed data throughput handling, buffering, and streaming architectures.
- Proficiency with LabView/ GNU Radio for SDR prototyping and integration with FPGA pipelines.
- Solid experience designing and implementing FIFO-based communication mechanisms between FPGA, processors, and hosts.
- Practical knowledge of I²C, UART, SPI, and AXI communication protocols.
- Understanding of DSP fundamentals (FFT, filtering, modulation/demodulation) and hardware acceleration on FPGA.
- Familiarity with high-speed ADC / DAC integration, clocking, and synchronization.
- Hands-on experience with debugging and validation tools (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, protocol analyzers).
- Communication skills for working in a multidisciplinary team.
- Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work collaboratively within cross-functional engineering teams.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills with experience documenting technical designs and test results.
-
NI CLA or CLD certification is a plus.
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.
