Job Description

Senior Firmware Engineer — Westlake Village, CA (Hybrid)

We've partnered with a rapidly growing hardware and healthcare technology company that's transforming how life-saving medicines and therapies are transported around the world. Backed by award-winning technology, significant recent investment, and a culture built around innovation, the team is developing connected products that combine embedded systems, IoT, and real-world impact. If you're excited by complex technical challenges and building products that matter, this is the kind of opportunity that doesn't come around often.

This isn't a "maintain the legacy codebase" role. You'll own the firmware architecture, drive development independently, and sit at the table during product concepting with industrial design, UX, and sustainability. If you like being the firmware voice in the room — from bring-up to launch — this is built for that.

What you'll own

Firmware architecture and technical direction across products in the portfolio
High-quality embedded C — new features, bug fixes, test apps, and the requirements/docs that keep it maintainable
Hardware bring-up, low-level debugging, and the messy parts of getting silicon to behave
Close collaboration with hardware, test, and external suppliers/contractors through to productization and launch

What we're looking for

5–10 years in firmware engineering + a 4-year degree
Strong embedded C; ARM processors a plus
Comfortable with the full toolchain — VS Code, CMake, GNU, Git, Jira, bash
Hands-on with microcontrollers and serial comms (USART / I2C / SPI), plus JTAG-level debugging
Can read schematics well enough to write to the hardware
Proven through full device productization and launch
RTOS experience (FreeRTOS or Zephyr)

Nice to have
