  • 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.
  • Mentor junior engineers in development best practices.

  • Experience developing consumer electronics systems at large scale.
  • Proficiency in C / C++ for embedded systems, with experience developing for bare‑metal, RTOS, or Linux‑based systems.
  • 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.
  • Experience developing manufacturing test software, including boundary scan, functional test, and system diagnostics.
  • 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.
  • Nice‑to‑Haves :

  • Exposure to secure boot, firmware update pipelines, and embedded cybersecurity.
  • Background in camera hardware, ISP tuning, or vision sensor integration.
  • Experience with Rust.
  • Pay transparency statement (for CA and NY based roles) :
