• Diagnose issues involving hardware, firmware, drivers, communications, and system performance.
• Collaborate with electrical, mechanical, software, and product engineering teams to deliver integrated solutions.
• Improve system reliability, performance, and maintainability as products transition from prototypes to production.

Qualifications

• 3+ years of experience in embedded systems engineering, firmware development, or a related discipline.
• Strong programming experience in C or C++, with Python experience preferred.
• Experience developing software for embedded Linux or Linux-based hardware platforms.
• Familiarity with hardware communication protocols such as UART, I2C, SPI, GPIO, RS-485, CAN, or Modbus.
• Experience with hardware integration, debugging, and laboratory testing.
• Understanding of device drivers, peripheral control, and hardware/software interfaces.
• Experience working with cameras, sensors, image acquisition, or signal processing is a plus.
• Ability to troubleshoot complex technical problems across hardware and software boundaries.
• Strong collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to work across multidisciplinary engineering teams.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience bringing embedded products from prototype to production.
• Familiarity with camera systems, optical sensors, or machine-vision hardware.
• Experience with real-time systems, hardware timing, or synchronization of multiple devices.
• Experience with automated testing, system diagnostics, and performance optimization.
• Comfortable working in a hands-on engineering environment involving physical hardware and laboratory testing.
