Job description

We are seeking an experienced and motivated Senior Software Engineer to join the CodeFusion Studio tools team, focused on developing bespoke configuration tools and data models for embedded devices .

In this role, you will build and evolve cutting-edge development tooling for today's complex heterogeneous embedded devices . You will work closely with embedded, tools, and product teams to deliver high-quality tooling that enables customers to configure, generate, and validate their embedded applications with confidence.

This role is ideal for an autonomous engineer who enjoys owning features end-to-end , mentoring others, and shipping robust tools on predictable schedules., * Design and develop configuration tools and workflows within CodeFusion Studio .

  • Create and maintain clear, extensible data models that represent hardware capabilities, constraints, and configuration states.
  • Implement tooling using TypeScript (VS Code extensions, CLI tools, services) and Python (automation, validation, generators).
  • Collaborate closely with embedded engineers to ensure configuration outputs align with firmware, SDK, and hardware expectations.
  • Translate product and hardware requirements into robust, maintainable tooling implementations .
  • Own delivery of key features, driving tasks to completion with minimal supervision.
  • Technical decision-making , guiding implementation choices, reviewing designs and code, and supporting timely delivery within a small team.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement of tooling quality, test coverage, and developer experience., * Work at the intersection of modern software tooling and advanced embedded hardware .
  • Own meaningful features and see them delivered to customers.
  • Join a collaborative, engineering-driven team with a strong emphasis on quality and long-term maintainability.
  • Contribute to the continued evolution of CodeFusion Studio as ADI's flagship development platform.
