Sr. Firmware Engineer

About the Role:

 

This role will focus on embedded firmware design and product development lifecycle for our ambitious product roadmap. The successful candidate will have experience in embedded firmware design, including 8-bit, 16-bit and 32-bit microcontrollers. Preferably in home appliance products or similar and would be familiar with all product development aspects such as best practice coding standards, heating control, motor control, sensor, inter-processor communications such as UART, I2C, SPI, WIFI and firmware/code verification systems. The successful candidate would have experience using analysis/measurement tools such as oscilloscopes, data loggers, DVM’s to debug embedded systems.

 

This is where your SharkNinja journey begins. You’re an explorer—not a tour guide—driven by curiosity, fueled by taking chances, and unwilling to fly under the radar. Here, bold moves turn into real impact, growth comes from challenge, and your work helps shape what’s next.

 

LOCATION: Shenzhen, China
