Are you a Senior Embedded Software Engineer who wants to develop ultra-low-power wireless technology that lets smart glasses, wearables, and other devices share data while using very little battery power?

On offer is the chance to lead firmware design decisions while staying hands-on with board bring-up, bare-metal development, and register-level debugging. You'll own key pieces of firmware from first prototype through release, with short product cycles and new hardware to work on regularly.

You'll join an ambitious, growing technology business backed by significant investment and major contracts. It's a friendly, fast-moving team of eight firmware engineers and ten hardware engineers who enjoy solving problems together and take pride in the technology they build.

The Role

• Lead firmware design decisions and work with hardware engineers to validate prototypes.
• Bring up new boards and develop low-level C/C++ firmware for Arm Cortex?M and RISC?V platforms.
• Develop low-power firmware for sensors, peripherals, and wireless connectivity.
• Debug hardware and firmware down to register level using oscilloscopes and JTAG.
• Help build a production-ready firmware SDK that hardware partners can integrate into their products.

The Person

• 5+ years of experience building embedded firmware for wearables, medical devices, or IoT products.
• Strong C/C++ skills and expertise in bare-metal embedded C.
• Experience developing firmware for Arm Cortex?M or similar microcontrollers.
• Deep hands-on experience with low-level MCU and hardware debugging.
• Comfortable leading technical decisions and collaborating across firmware and hardware teams.

Desirable

• Experience with RTOS, BLE stack customization, or neural or biometric sensing.
• PCB-level hardware familiarity or embedded Linux experience.
• Experience building and shipping SDKs for third-party use.
