Job Description
Design, develop, and test embedded firmware for microcontrollers and microprocessors in bare-metal or RTOS environments. Architect and implement low-level drivers, communication protocols (I2C, SPI, UART, CAN, etc.), and system-level firmware for real-time applications. Collaborate with hardware engineers to define system architecture, debug hardware/firmware interactions, and ensure seamless integration. Optimize firmware for power efficiency, performance, and memory constraints in resource-limited embedded systems. Participate in code reviews, maintain high-quality code standards, and document firmware designs and processes. Contribute to system-level debugging, performance profiling, and validation of embedded systems. Optionally, support FPGA integration, including firmware interfacing with FPGA designs, or contribute to custom OS builds using tools like Yocto or Buildroot.
