Original job description

Fidus is a global high-tech design firm headquartered in Ottawa, with additional design centres in Kitchener-Waterloo and San Jose. We specialize in leading-edge electronic product development, with hardware, embedded software, FPGA/ASIC, and signal integrity teams working together to design and deliver next-generation products for clients in emerging technology markets.

Position Overview/Mandate:

The Senior Embedded Software Designer plays a key role in designing and delivering complex embedded software systems for Fidus clients. You will lead and contribute to embedded software development across communication, networking, and video applications - developing BSP-level software, implementing device drivers, integrating with FPGA SoCs and hardware, and setting technical direction for project teams.

This role is ideal for someone with deep embedded expertise who enjoys working with new technologies, takes pride in producing maintainable, high-quality code, and is ready to provide technical leadership and mentorship while working closely with customers.

Make an Impact with US:

At Fidus, you'll work on high-speed, high-complexity electronic systems, often using emerging technologies before they reach the broader market. You'll collaborate across FPGA/DSP, hardware, embedded software, verification, SI/PI, PCB layout, and mechanical/thermal design as part of cross-functional teams delivering real products for our clients.

In practice, that means contributing to projects in areas such as space and satellite systems, next-generation communications and networking, high-performance compute and storage platforms, advanced video, imaging, VR/AR applications, and industrial, medical, and automotive systems. You won't be limited to a single product or industry - your work will follow the technology, not just one roadmap.

What You'll Be Doing:

Lead and contribute to embedded software development projects, focusing on communication, networking, and video applications.
Develop and maintain BSP-level software for embedded Linux, RTOS, and bare-metal systems.
Implement device drivers, manage kernel configurations, and utilize build systems such as Yocto or PetaLinux.
Design and debug software for FPGA SoCs, integrating with hardware and other system components.
Collaborate on HW/SW/FPGA integration, interpreting schematics and datasheets to ensure robust system functionality.
Utilize tools like oscilloscopes and logic analyzers for effective debugging and optimization.
Define architecture and set technical direction for projects.
Lead project teams, mentoring and guiding multiple designers to ensure high-quality outcomes.
Work closely with customers to understand requirements and exceed expectations.
Employ best design practices to produce maintainable and high-quality code.
Stay current with emerging technologies and methodologies, bringing innovative solutions to the team and projects.

Who You are:

Degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent.
Minimum 8 years' experience in BSP-level software development within embedded Linux, RTOS, or bare-metal environments.
Minimum 2 years' experience as a technical lead, with proven leadership in project teams, technical architecture, and direction-setting.
Expertise in embedded software design, including communication, networking, and video applications.
Strong experience with embedded Linux, including Yocto or PetaLinux flows, build systems, packaging, kernel configurations, and device drivers.
Practical experience with FPGA SoCs, especially Xilinx or equivalent.
Proficiency in C, C++, and assembly programming, with an understanding of tools and best practices for embedded environments.
Familiarity with device driver development for Linux and real-time OSes.
Experience with software upgrade processes and bootloaders like u-boot.
Skills in HW/SW/FPGA integration and debugging using schematics, datasheets, oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers.
Strength in object-oriented design principles and implementation.
Knowledge of scripting languages such as Python, Bash, and TCL.
Embraces AI as part of a modern engineering toolkit.
Excellent communication skills, fluency in English, and ability to work effectively in a team and with clients.
Strong technical leadership, emphasizing quality design practices.
Willingness to learn new technologies and tackle complex challenges.

This role is being posted to fill an existing vacancy.

Annual base salary ranges from $100,000 to $150,000. The final offer within this range takes into account the variations in knowledge, skills, experience, and market conditions, and with consideration to internal equity.

Our competitive compensation package also includes a comprehensive benefits package, including medical, dental, and vision plans, matching GRSP contributions, annual profit-sharing bonus, along with other supplementary benefits.

We also recognize that candidates show interest throughout different career stages and welcome all applications. When there is a great fit, the level of the role may be shifted as applicable.
