This is a hands-on role requiring strong problem-solving skills and a passion for robust, scalable firmware. You will also contribute to continuous improvement of tools, processes, and software quality across critical product lines.

• Design, develop, and maintain embedded Linux firmware for advanced power systems, including three-phase UPS and energy management products, ensuring reliability, performance, and compliance with product requirements.
• Collaborate with global engineering teams to implement software features using C and C++ for ARM and DSP-based platforms within Agile development workflows.
• Own software components across the development lifecycle, including requirements analysis, architecture, design documentation, implementation, testing, debugging, and formal release.
• Develop and execute test plans, troubleshoot embedded software issues, and ensure timely resolution of bugs and system defects.
• Lead technical design reviews and contribute to software engineering standards, documentation practices, and release processes.
• Work with cross-functional stakeholders to translate business and product requirements into scalable embedded Linux solutions.
• Stay current with emerging embedded systems technologies, cybersecurity considerations, and power electronics software trends.

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field.
• At least 3+ years of experience in embedded software development, including strong hands-on expertise with embedded Linux environments.
• Solid proficiency in C and C++ programming, with a strong understanding of object-oriented design, multithreading, and software architecture principles.
• Experience working with Linux build systems, embedded toolchains, and preferably Yocto-based environments and multi-core systems.
• Strong debugging, analytical, and problem-solving skills in complex embedded system environments.
• Familiarity with networking protocols such as TCP/IP, HTTP, MQTT, Modbus, or CAN is highly valued.
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to collaborate effectively in global, distributed engineering teams.
• Agile development experience and familiarity with tools such as Git and Jira are a plus.

• Competitive base salary aligned with experience and market standards
• Comprehensive health, dental, vision, and wellness coverage
• 401(k) retirement plan with employer contributions
• Paid time off, holidays, and parental leave programs
• Hybrid/remote flexibility depending on role requirements
• Career development opportunities within a global engineering organization
• Exposure to cutting-edge power electronics and mission-critical infrastructure projects
• Learning and training support for continuous technical growth
