Job Description: Senior Embedded Software Engineer EXP: 3 to 5 Years Location: Hyderabad About the Role Our company is seeking a skilled and self-motivated Embedded Software Engineer to drive the end-to-end development of embedded devices designed to solve real-world challenges. In this role, you will be responsible for taking projects from initial concept through to full production and site deployment.You will work closely with cross-functional teams—including hardware engineers, QA/testing teams, software application developers, and field site engineers—to deliver reliable, production-ready embedded systems.Objectives of this Role End-to-End Product Delivery: Lead embedded software development across the entire lifecycle, from architecture definition and concept to production and field deployment. Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with hardware design teams, software application developers, QA testers, and site engineers to ensure seamless hardware-software integration and successful site deployment. Hardware-Software Integration: Analyze SoC capabilities, read complex datasheets, and use vendor-provided SDKs/toolchains to accelerate bring-up and feature development. System Reliability & Debugging: Perform low-level board bring-up, hardware debugging, and signal analysis using diagnostic tools and hardware debuggers. Cloud & Server Connectivity: Implement wireless networking features enabling embedded devices to securely communicate with remote servers over Wi-Fi. Key Responsibilities & Tasks Firmware & Driver Development: Write efficient, modular, and maintainable C code using advanced data structures for bare-metal and RTOS/Linux environments. Board Bring-Up & Vendor Tools: Utilize vendor software suites, SDKs, and toolchains (ESP-IDF, STM32Cube, etc.) to configure microcontrollers and microprocessors. Hardware Debugging & Diagnostics: Troubleshoot hardware-software issues using logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, and debug interfaces (JTAG, OpenOCD). Communication Protocol Implementation: Develop and integrate drivers for serial protocols including I2C, SPI, UART, Modbus, and related industrial/embedded buses. Network & Wireless Connectivity: Program embedded Wi‑Fi modules and network stacks to enable device-to-server data transmission. Field & Site Support: Work directly with site engineers to troubleshoot, deploy, and issue software updates for devices in production environments. Code Quality & Technical Documentation: Conduct peer code reviews, adhere to coding standards, and maintain clear design and architecture documentation. Required Skills & QualificationsArchitecture & Core Development Education & Experience: B.Tech / B.E. in Electrical, Electronics, Computer Engineering, or a related field, with 3+ years of hands‑on embedded software engineering experience.
