We are looking for a Senior Embedded SW Engineer to join the Analog Garage in Boston, a high‑energy, fast‑paced innovation driver for ground‑breaking ideas. The Systems Engineering Team brings innovation within the Analog Garage to life and puts it in customer hands. As a Systems Software Engineer you will collaborate with advanced algorithm, software, and hardware teams to build state‑of‑the‑art embedded computing systems.

You will also work with our customer‑facing business and application teams to understand customer requirements and select appropriate hardware and software libraries for the job. Depending on the project, we use general‑purpose processors, GPUs, FPGAs, DSPs, and NN accelerators as computational engines.
Design embedded software for edge computing systems. You will collaborate with System Architects, Algorithm Designers, Software and Hardware Engineers to take high‑level system architecture and translate it into a working design. You will design, test, document, and maintain embedded software such as signal processing blocks, device drivers, APIs, state machines, communication bus controllers, and hardware self‑tests, for ‘bare‑metal’ MCUs (ARM Cortex M0‑M4) and/or as software sub‑blocks in embedded edge‑compute systems running Linux, ROS, or other operating systems.

You will apply modern software‑engineering best practices in all of your work, create documentation for fellow developers and users of the system, integrate hardware and software, bring‑up and debug the system, take measurements, and document the results to ensure the system meets requirements. Your final result will be bringing embedded edge‑compute systems to life and putting them in customer hands.

Build automated measurement and/or data collection systems. You will collaborate with System Architects, Algorithm Designers, Software and Hardware Engineers to build sensor‑to‑cloud data collection systems that will allow design, training, and test of state‑of‑the‑art deep neural networks. Typical sensors might be inertial sensors, cameras, depth‑sensing cameras, microphones, radars, radio transceivers or others. You will write scripts in Python, Matlab, or other scripting languages to configure, control, acquire data, visualize data, and store it on local storage or on the cloud.

You will make sure the data format, structure, and quality meets requirements of Data Scientists and/or Algorithm Designers. You will create documentation for fellow developers and users of the system.

• MSEE or MSCS degree
• Strong C/C++ programming skills
• Experience using ARM development tools such as Keil, IAR, Eclipse, mBed, GCC.
• Experience in embedded systems design
• Experience with Linux, ROS and/or other embedded OSs
• Experience in Python or other modern scripting languages
• Solid understanding of signal chains, sampling theorem, noise, time‑domain to frequency‑domain conversion, windowing and filtering.
• Solid problem‑solving and trouble‑shooting skills

• Demonstrated knowledge of digital signal processing (DSP) and algorithm implementation experience.
• Experience in FPGA development including design, synthesis, simulation, verification and timing analysis.
• Solid understanding of ADC and DAC principles of operation
