Debug firmware on custom hardware platforms and prototypes

Optimize, refactor, and maintain existing firmware codebases

Participate in an Agile development environment, contributing to task planning, execution, and timely status updates

Apply best practices for coding, documentation, and tool usage (e.g., Git, JIRA, and related development tools)

Work closely with digital design engineers to emulate and validate new designs using FPGA platforms

Leverage AI‑assisted tools throughout the development lifecycle, including requirements analysis, design exploration, coding, test generation, debugging, documentation, and code review

Evaluate and apply AI capabilities in a disciplined and secure manner to improve developer productivity, code quality, and system understanding

Qualifications

What You’ll Need

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, or a related discipline

3-5 years of experience in embedded firmware development

Strong proficiency in embedded C, with working knowledge of C++ and assembly language

Solid understanding of embedded system design at both board and IC levels

Good knowledge of microprocessor architectures, including memory subsystems, interrupts, and common peripherals

Familiarity with hardware debug and analysis tools (e.g., hardware debuggers, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers)

Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across teams

Proven ability to plan and manage work to meet project deadlines

Detail‑oriented, quality‑focused, and a strong team player

Interest in or experience with the semiconductor industry

Demonstrated experience using AI‑assisted development tools across multiple stages of the software lifecycle (design, implementation, validation, and maintenance)

Ability to critically assess AI‑generated outputs, validate correctness, and integrate them safely into production‑grade firmware

What Else You May Bring

Experience with scripting languages, particularly Python

Experience with ARM Cortex‑M based microcontrollers

Hands‑on experience with FPGA prototype platforms for system evaluation

Experience with Verilog or SystemVerilog

Experience running and analyzing RTL simulations

Experience building or customizing AI‑enabled workflows (e.g., prompt engineering, automation, or tool integration) to support firmware development, verification, or documentation

Familiarity with enterprise and security considerations when applying AI in a regulated or IP‑sensitive environment
