Firmware Engineer, RTOS, Consumer DevicesActive$293K–$325K

The opportunity

The Software Engineering Firmware team builds reliable, high-performance systems on custom hardware. We work closely with hardware engineers to design, optimize, and ship software that bridges cutting-edge devices and real-world constraints like memory, power, and latency.

What you'll do

  • Design, implement, and debug software for embedded devices.

  • Contribute to defining software requirements, interfaces, and test plans.

  • Bring up and debug new boards.

  • Analyze performance, memory, and power profiles and implement optimizations.

  • Investigate field issues, perform root-cause analysis, and deliver robust fixes.

  • Foster good software engineering practices.

What they're looking for

  • Have deep experience shipping embedded systems (around 10+ years).
  • Are proficient in C and C++.
  • Are familiar with embedded toolchains, operating systems, and debugging tools.
  • Have experience with both rapid prototyping and scalable product development.
