- Prepare maintenance documentation that includes procedures for regular upkeep, troubleshooting, and repairs
- Create technical drawings and schematics that provide detailed visual representations of the robotic systems.
- Conduct comprehensive unit testing, integration testing, and user acceptance testing of both the robotic systems and the software to ensure they meet all project requirements and perform as expected under various conditions.
- Create test plans that outline the objectives, scope, and methods for testing the systems.
- Identify detailed test cases that specify the conditions and expected outcomes for each test.
- Author validation reports that summarize the results of the tests, including any issues found and resolutions implemented
- Track bugs and issues in logs that document all identified problems and their status.
- Install and commission the automated systems within the business processes, ensuring they are fully operational and integrated with existing workflows.
- Provide support during the initial deployment phase to address any issues.
- Create a deployment report that documents the installation process, any challenges encountered, and solutions implemented.
- Prepare installation guides that provide step-by-step instructions for setting up and configuring the systems
- Continuously monitor the performance of the automated systems to identify areas for improvement.
- Optimize the systems to enhance efficiency, reliability, and performance based on collected data and user feedback.
- Create performance reports that analyze system metrics and identify areas for improvement.
- Determine optimization plans that outline the steps to enhance system performance and efficiency.
-
Maintain system logs and monitor data that provide insights into system operations and any issues encountered.
- At least a BS in Engineering
- 2-3 years of industry experience
-

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.
