YOUR DAILY IMPACT AT PELOTON
  • Craft high-performance firmware for bare-metal and embedded OS environments, ensuring seamless integration between custom hardware and Android services

  • Safeguard our products by implementing encryption, secure boot, and secure firmware updates to protect user data and device authenticity
  • Develop custom tools for software, hardware, and QA teams, conducting rigorous unit tests and automated scripts to ensure flawless functionality
  • Utilize logic analyzers, JTAG probes, and oscilloscopes to diagnose and resolve complex firmware issues in production environments
  • Partner with Project Managers in Agile/Scrum settings to define requirements, architect software solutions, and plan high-impact sprints
  • Drive excellence through active participation in product design reviews, code reviews, and detailed documentation
  • Contribute to broad-scale brainstorming sessions and communicate technical progress clearly to both internal teams and external stakeholders
YOU BRING TO PELOTON
  • 4+ years of professional firmware development, specifically with ARM Cortex-M or similar low-power platforms
  • Mastery of C programming, RTOS environments (FreeRTOS, Zephyr), and multithreaded programming
  • Deep understanding of communication standards like UART, SPI, I2C, CAN, and USB, alongside networking and wireless concepts
  • Expert-level familiarity with Git-based workflows (Gerrit, GitHub) and a keen interest in leveraging AI-driven tools to boost code quality
  • While C is your home, you have functional skills (or an interest) in Java, Kotlin, Bash, or Python
  • A proactive, detail-oriented approach with the curiosity to master new technologies as project needs evolve
  • The ability to translate complex technical challenges into actionable insights for the wider team
  • A degree in Engineering or equivalent practical experience in the field
