Job description

We are seeking a skilled Firmware Engineer (5+ years of experience) to design, develop, and maintain embedded firmware for digitally controlled power supplies and power management systems. The ideal candidate will work closely with hardware, systems, and test engineering teams to develop robust and efficient code that ensures performance, reliability, and compliance with industry standards.

  • Design and implement embedded firmware for power supply control, monitoring, and communication execute firmware and software release process, including the use of revision control systems.
  • Develop control algorithms (e.g., voltage regulation, current limiting, PFC, etc.) for AC-DC and DC-DC power conversion.
  • Interface with digital communication protocols (I2C, SPI, UART, CAN, PMBus, SMBus, GPIB, Ethernet, LXI, Modbus).
  • Collaborate with hardware engineers to define microcontroller/processor specifications and integrate firmware with schematics and layouts.
  • Perform firmware debugging, validation, and optimization using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and other lab equipment.
  • Develop and execute unit and system-level tests to ensure firmware quality and regulatory compliance (UL, IEC, etc.).
  • Maintain detailed documentation of firmware design, code, and system integration procedures.
  • Participate in design reviews and contribute to product definition and architecture decisions.
