Integrate and troubleshoot communication protocols such as CAN, LIN, SPI, I2C, UART, Ethernet, BLE, and related interfaces
Collaborate with hardware, system, requirements, and test teams to deliver robust and scalable solutions
Participate in platform bring-up, debugging, performance tuning, and system integration activities
Develop reliable and maintainable code using unit testing, static analysis, and automated validation practices
Participate in code reviews, design reviews, and technical discussions
Support development and maintenance of CI/CD pipelines, build systems, and automated test environments
Investigate and resolve complex system-level and firmware-related issues
Produce clear technical documentation and follow established development processes and standards

Minimum 7 years of experience in embedded software or firmware development
Automotive industry experience is highly valued but not required
Strong proficiency in C and C++ programming
Experience working with microcontroller-based embedded systems and resource-constrained environments
Strong understanding of Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS) and/or bare-metal embedded development
Experience working with communication protocols such as CAN, LIN, SPI, I2C, UART, Ethernet, BLE, or similar technologies
Ability to understand, debug, and extend large existing software systems and codebases
Strong debugging and troubleshooting skills using tools such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, JTAG debuggers, and protocol analyzers
Experience with version control systems (Git), issue tracking tools, and CI/CD workflows
Familiarity with automated testing, unit testing, integration testing, and hardware-in-the-loop validation
Experience with bootloaders, firmware upgrade mechanisms, diagnostics and communication stacks is considered an asset
Experience developing software for Linux-based embedded systems is a plus
Experience in IoT, telecom, industrial automation, or AI-enabled systems is considered valuable
Strong communication, collaboration, and problem-solving skills
