Embedded Software Engineer
$115,000-$150,000 + Bonus + Equity + Progression + 401(k) + Medical + PTO
West Lafayette, IN - Relocation Support


Are you an Embedded Software Engineer who wants to develop low-level firmware close to the hardware, take more ownership of what you build and grow your career alongside like-minded engineers?


You'll join a growing technology company developing low-power wireless technology for wearables and smart devices. Backed by significant investment and major contracts, the team moves quickly from prototype to release, so you'll get to work on new hardware and see your firmware go into products customers use.


You'll build on your embedded experience in a close-knit team of firmware and hardware engineers who enjoy getting hands-on and solving problems together. You'll have a say in how the firmware is designed, work through technical decisions with experienced engineers and take on more responsibility as the team grows.


In this role, you'll write low-level C/C++, bring up new boards and debug directly on the hardware. You'll own firmware features from first bring-up through release, working closely with hardware engineers to get sensors and peripherals working and prototypes ready to ship. Relocation support is available to help you make the move to West Lafayette.


The Role


  • Work side by side with a close-knit team of firmware and hardware engineers.

  • Develop low-level embedded firmware in C/C++ across bare-metal, RTOS and embedded Linux environments.

  • Bring up new boards and write firmware for sensors and peripherals using I²C and SPI.

  • Debug and test on real hardware using oscilloscopes and JTAG.

  • Own firmware features from development and prototype validation through release.

  • Work in the office with some flexibility.


The Person


  • Professional embedded firmware development experience and strong C/C++ skills.

  • Experience building firmware for wearables, robotics, medical devices or IoT products.

  • Hands-on experience with microcontrollers, board bring-up and hardware debugging.

  • Experience with bare-metal programming, an RTOS or embedded Linux.
