• Hardware Collaboration
  Work closely with hardware and PCB engineers to define interfaces, support bring‑up, and debug system integration issues.

• Testing & Debugging
  Perform board bring‑up, validation, and system‑level testing using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, JTAG, and emulators.

• Quality & Documentation
  Participate in design reviews, maintain documentation, and contribute to scalable, maintainable firmware architecture.

What We’re Looking For

• 5+ years of experience developing embedded software in C for bare‑metal microcontrollers
  .
• Proven experience taking products from concept to production.
• Strong understanding of embedded architecture, interrupts, and real‑time constraints.
• Hands‑on debugging skills using oscilloscopes, JTAG, and in‑circuit debuggers.
• Experience with protocols such as SPI, I2C, UART, CAN, USB
  .
• Solid grasp of hardware/software integration.
• Strong communication and documentation skills.

Nice to Have
