You'll help translate system requirements into implementable designs, build and integrate low-level components, and ensure the resulting solutions are deterministic, reliable, and performant in real-world operating conditions-often with tight constraints on memory, compute, power, and timing. In this role, you'll write efficient, high-quality C/C++ (or similar C-family) code (and, ideally, Rust) for firmware, drivers, and hardware-facing application logic. You'll work with senior engineers to make sound technical tradeoffs around real-time behavior, interrupt handling, concurrency, and resource management, and you'll contribute to establishing and following coding standards that support safety, maintainability, and portability across hardware variants. Where applicable, you'll support development on a real-time operating system (RTOS) or bare-metal environments and help validate system behavior under stress, edge cases, and fault conditions. You will actively participate in peer code reviews, debugging sessions, and root-cause analysis, strengthening the codebase through clear documentation, improved test coverage, and disciplined configuration management. You'll contribute to bring-up and integration activities-working closely with hardware engineers to interpret schematics, review board interfaces, validate peripherals, and troubleshoot issues using tools such as JTAG, logic analyzers, and oscilloscopes. You'll also support build and release workflows, including cross-compilation toolchains, continuous integration, and packaging of firmware images. ## Related Videos - [Recruitment Reinvented: Bold strategies and the $10K signing incentive](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1068-recruitment-reinvented-bold-strategies-and-the-10k-signing-incentive) - [Docker network without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1418-docker-network-without-docker) - [How a Small Team Shrank a Microsoft Monorepo by 94%](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1236-how-a-small-team-shrank-a-microsoft-monorepo-by-94) - [The best of two worlds - Bringing enterprise-grade Linux to the vehicle](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/67-the-best-of-two-worlds-bringing-enterprise-grade-linux-to-the-vehicle) - [More efficient software for more efficient microchips](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1164-more-efficient-software-for-more-efficient-microchips) - [Docker exec without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1094-docker-exec-without-docker) ## Related Articles - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [Where To Find Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/396-where-to-find-software-engineering-jobs)
