ABOUT THE ROLE

We're looking for a deeply technical Staff Firmware Engineer who lives at the lowest levels of the stack from bootloaders, device drivers, board bring-up and cross-domain bugs that span hardware, firmware, and software. You'll own embedded firmware end-to-end across systems that fly, drive, and dive (Menace, Dive-XL, Ghost, Roadrunner), working shoulder-to-shoulder with Electrical Engineering on some of the hardest problems our customers face.
WHAT YOU'LL DO

  • Architect and develop low-level firmware for microcontrollers; build reusable device drivers and system-level features for an ever-growing codebase
  • Take full ownership of embedded firmware projects from design through deployment
  • Debug and troubleshoot issues spanning the electrical/firmware/software boundary
  • Help select MCUs and peripherals and review schematics with EE
  • Mentor firmware engineers and shape engineering best practices
  • Concurrently drive multiple projects at various stages
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
  • BS or MS in CS/CE/EE or equivalent industry experience
  • Strong C coding ability for embedded systems
  • Experience integrating microcontrollers with analog and digital sensors
  • Experience developing firmware in bare-metal or RTOS environments
  • Solid understanding and application of coding best practices, board bring up and debugging
  • Some familiarity with common bus protocols such as USB, SPI, I2C, CAN, RS232, RS485, Ethernet, etc.
  • U.S. Persons status is required as this position needs to access export controlled data
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
  • Experience with one or more microcontroller cores (ARM, AVR, MSP430, PIC, etc.)
  • Debugging skills with JTAG, SWD, Oscilloscopes, and Logic analyzers
  • Have a bias for action. If you see a problem, you want to solve and fix it
  • Be naturally curious about the technologies and tools you use


The salary range for this role is an estimate based on a wide range of compensation factors, inclusive of base salary only. Actual salary offer may vary based on (but not limited to) work experience, education and/or training, critical skills, and/or business considerations.
