Job description

This is a hands-on technical leadership role. You will own firmware architecture, guide fellow engineers, and serve as a primary technical point of contact with the client. No H-1Bs for this role. Candidates must be in the USA. No agency/C2C., * Lead firmware architecture and design for real-time sensing and touch-controller applications; author and own SW architecture and design documents, seeking feedback and approval from peers and client.

Hands-on C and C++ development, including unit and functional test - this remains a deeply technical role.
Develop and optimize low-level drivers and real-time data-acquisition firmware interfacing with mixed-signal sensing hardware (ADC/AFE/DSP subsystems).
Provide technical leadership and mentorship; review code and designs and set engineering standards.
Review and refine requirements; translate them into robust firmware designs.
Drive the Agile process including sprint planning, daily standups, and demonstrations.
Provide inputs into planning; communicate status, risks, and impediments in a timely manner; track time expended on the project.
Collaborate closely with the client and their representatives across all aspects of the project.

Demonstrated technical leadership - owning firmware architecture and mentoring engineers.
Real-time firmware development on ARM.
Experience developing firmware for mixed-signal / sensing devices; comfort working alongside ADC, AFE, and DSP subsystems and signal-processing concepts.
Low-level driver development and hardware/firmware bring-up.
High-speed host communication interfaces: I²C, SPI/QSPI, UART.
Familiarity with capacitive touch / HMI sensing systems a strong plus.
Firmware security experience a plus
