- Logic design, implementation, and verification using Verilog, System Verilog, and any required programing and scripting languages.
- Synthesize and optimize RTL for timing, area, and power.
- Explore micro-architecture and architectural tradeoffs via quick modelling using scripting languages such as python, Perl etc.
- Developing unit level test environments and tests cases
- Developing front-end methodologies and tool flows.
- Participating in chip bring-up and testing.
- Analyzing and reviewing code coverage and functional coverage and providing recommendations to the verification team to address any gaps.
Requirements:
- Master’s degree in electrical/Electronics/Computer Engineering with 0-5 years of experience.
- Good understanding of computer architecture, logic design and VLSI design.
- Knowledge of System Verilog, Verilog, python, and Perl.
- Knowledge of design verification, and functional coverage.
- Ability to program in scripting languages and the ability to write assembly language programs.
- Strong communication skills and a good team player.
- Adept problem-solving abilities
- Knowledge of logic synthesis and timing closer is a plus
The base salary range is $135,000 - $170,000. Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions.

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.
