Senior Embedded Firmware Lead — Architecture & Delivery

Amazon Inc.; Województwo pomorskie; On-site; PLN 293,000 - 351,000; Full time

Job summary

Amazon in Poland is seeking a Senior Embedded Software Engineer to lead firmware architecture for Ring devices in Gdansk. You will own end-to-end embedded subsystems, influence design choices, and mentor engineers while delivering high-quality C/C++ for IoT platforms.

You will work across hardware, QA, cloud, and silicon vendors to shape a scalable firmware roadmap, with hands-on coding and debugging on real hardware. The role emphasizes ownership and cross-functional impact.

Qualifications

• Deep embedded development experience in C or C++ on resource constrained hardware.
• Experience owning the design of embedded subsystems or products end to end, from architecture through production release.
• Experience shipping embedded products at volume, and a clear view of what separates a working prototype from a product in millions of homes.
• Experience with ARM CPUs, low level drivers, interrupt service routines, and debugging across the hardware and software boundary.
• Experience mentoring engineers and raising the technical standard of a team.
• Ability to communicate technical decisions and risks clearly to engineers and to non engineers, in writing.

Responsibilities

• Own the design and implementation of firmware spanning several subsystems, such as connectivity, streaming, power management, sensors, or security.
• Lead your colleagues to deliver high quality C and C++ that will scale with the needs of the business.
• Make architecture decisions that hold up across products, and write them down clearly enough that other teams can build on them.
• Set the technical bar through code review, design review, and the standards you hold yourself to, and empower your colleagues to meet and raise it.
• Mentor engineers, grow the people around you, and multiply what the team can deliver.
• Partner with hardware, QA, cloud, app, and silicon vendor teams to deliver one integrated product experience, and drive the decisions that cross those lines.
• Work with your manager and leadership to shape the firmware roadmap and influence the technical strategy behind it.
• Find and fix the hardest problems we have, including the ones that only reproduce on one board variant, at low temperature, or after eight hours of soak.
• Raise technical risk early, with a recommendation attached.
