The successful candidate must demonstrate high levels of motivation, individual responsibility, and accountability; stay current with relevant technology advances; and be able to perform the essential functions listed below.
Staff Embedded Software Engineer Shall
Lead the design, development, and maintenance of Zephyr RTOS-based embedded software platforms for advanced products. This role will focus on board bring-up, device driver development, platform integration, real-time software architecture, and delivery of scalable, maintainable solutions for the Zephyr RTOS development team.
Key Responsibilities
- Translate product requirements into Zephyr RTOS-based software architecture, platform requirements, and implementation plans for embedded products.
- Collaborate with software architects and cross-functional teams to design and develop Zephyr device drivers, board support packages, and platform integrations for MCU and SoC solutions.
- Contribute to the design and development of embedded software using Zephyr kernel services, subsystem APIs, Devicetree, Kconfig, west, and CMake-based workflows.
- Contribute to software architecture decisions for reusable platform services, real-time performance, power management, and long-term maintainability.
- Ensure proper software development, testing, debugging, integration, validation, and documentation, including adherence to software standards and execution on evaluation boards and production-relevant hardware platforms.
- Communicate effectively across hardware, firmware, validation, and product teams, and contribute positively as a collaborative member of the engineering organization.
- Support high engineering standards through code reviews, documentation, and best practices for quality and reliability.
- Independently operate in a global and diverse software development community, including collaboration across multiple geographical locations and, where appropriate, with upstream open-source ecosystems.
- Exhibit professional behavior with internal and external stakeholders that reflects positively on the company and is consistent with the company’s policies, engineering standards, and development practices.
Education / Experience
- BS or MS in Computer Science, Computer or Electronics Engineering, or a related field with 10+ years of industry experience.
Skills / Qualifications
- Strong hands-on experience developing embedded software platforms, firmware, and low-level drivers for MCUs, DSPs, or heterogeneous SoC architectures.
- Proficiency in C and/or C++ with strong software engineering practices for maintainable, testable, and production-quality embedded code.
- Strong experience with Zephyr RTOS, including board support, BSP development, device driver development, kernel services, and platform integration.
- Experience in silicon and board bring-up, and comfort debugging silicon, hardware, and software using IDEs and JTAG/SWD debuggers.
- Well-versed in RTOS concepts such as scheduling, synchronization, timing, memory constraints, and concurrency, with strong practical experience in Zephyr RTOS; familiarity with other RTOS or embedded Linux environments is a plus.
- Hands-on experience with Zephyr build and configuration systems, including Kconfig, Devicetree, CMake, and west tools.
- Good understanding of ARM-based embedded systems, bus architecture, and standard communication interfaces such as UART, SPI, I2C, PWM, ADC, DAC, GPIO, interrupts, and power management.
- Hands-on experience with debugging tools and techniques in multi-threaded RTOS environments, including GDB, J-Link, OpenOCD, tracing, and log-based analysis.
- Experience with CI/CD, automated testing, and modern development tools such as Git, Jenkins or GitHub Actions, Jira, and Confluence; familiarity with Zephyr test automation is preferred.
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with a proactive mindset and the ability to work effectively across software, hardware, and validation teams.
Nice To Have
- Familiarity with silicon design and development cycles, and understanding of hardware/software co-design principles across the product lifecycle.
- Experience contributing to open-source or upstream embedded software projects; prior Zephyr upstream contributions are a strong plus.
- Experience with MCUboot, secure boot, or related embedded security and connectivity components.
- Comfortable reading board schematics and using laboratory tools such as oscilloscopes and logic analyzers; familiarity with low-power design, Bluetooth LE, networking, or CAN stacks is a plus.
