  • Design and implement low-level drivers and board support packages (BSPs) for microcontrollers, sensors and SoCs.

  • Drive hardware/firmware integration and debug issues across electrical and software boundaries.

  • Participate in design reviews and provide input on embedded system architectures and testability.

  • Work collaboratively with cross-functional teams on concept integration into product roadmap with a focus on stability, power, and performance.

  • Evaluate, debug, and validate new hardware designs, leveraging oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and other lab tools.

  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams (mechanical, software, product) to optimize system performance.

  • Author and maintain documentation for firmware architecture, testing procedures, and validation results.

  • Coordinate with software engineers to validate system-level behavior and address hardware/software integration issues.

  • Support production system debug as needed.

  • Experience working with Android and AOSP based platforms.

  • Supporting overseas development with JDM/ODM partners

  • Mentor junior engineers in development best practices.

About You:

  • Experience with Zephyr RTOS, Linux kernel internals, and real-time system design.

  • Familiarity with standard industry tools: oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, JTAG, UART, SPI, I2C, PCIe, etc.

  • Strong debugging skills in both hardware and software domains, including use of low-level debuggers and trace tools.

  • Hands-on experience with microcontrollers, SoCs, and custom board bring-up.

  • Ability to work independently on complex projects and take full ownership of deliverables

  • Ability to debug complex cross-domain issues (hardware/software) in a fast-paced, iterative development environment.

  • Committed to rigorous documentation and testing practices

  • Comfortable working in a start-up or high-velocity team environment, with a proactive, hands-on approach.
