  • Strong understanding of software architecture and the ability to develop robust, maintainable software designs.
  • Fluent in C and C++.
  • 5+ years of professional software development experience in an embedded systems environment is preferred; candidates with less experience who demonstrate strong technical aptitude and relevant experience are encouraged to apply.
  • Knowledge of embedded hardware interfaces and communication protocols, such as CAN, SPI, I2C, PWM, UART, USB, ADC, DAC, Ethernet, and Modbus.
  • Experience with the full product design and development lifecycle, including requirements definition, software architecture and design, implementation, integration, testing, configuration management, and defect tracking.
  • Demonstrated ability to take ownership of assignments and drive them through completion.
  • Experience developing software and automation tools using Python.
  • Ability to diagnose and troubleshoot software and hardware integration issues.
  • Ability to work independently while also collaborating effectively across functional areas, including engineering, documentation, technical support, marketing, and sales.
