Job description
Job Description About Humble Robotics Working at Humble Robotics means taking on the biggest change in ground transportation in decades. We’re building an autonomous, zero-emissions hauler that dramatically lowers the cost of freight with groundbreaking vision-based AI, designed for today’s global logistics network. We’re a fast-moving, close-knit team of AV industry veterans and innovative thinkers. We don’t believe culture can be engineered - but when it falls into place, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. Progress has never felt so present. Position Overview As an Embedded Engineer, you will develop safety-critical, real-time firmware for automotive ECUs powering vehicle control and supervisory functions. You will work across the full firmware lifecycle, from board bring-up to production deployment, collaborating closely with hardware, software, systems, and safety engineering teams. Key Responsibilities
- Architect, develop, debug, and test real-time embedded firmware in C++ for automotive-grade microcontrollers
- Develop and maintain bootloaders, low-level drivers, middleware, and RTOS configurations
- Implement and integrate automotive communication protocols (CAN, LIN, Automotive Ethernet) and peripheral interfaces (SPI, I2C, UART)
- Collaborate with hardware engineers on schematic review, board bring-up, and hardware-software co-debugging
- Manage reliable communications between compute and embedded platforms on the vehicle
- Partner with Tier 1s to integrate vehicle components
- Develop and execute unit, integration, and hardware-in-loop test strategies
- Root-cause both board-level and vehicle-level issues in the field
- Support manufacturing test development and vehicle software deployment.
Requirements
- BS or MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field
- 3+ years developing production embedded firmware in C/C++
- Experience with 32-bit ARM Cortex-M or similar automotive-grade microcontrollers
- Experience developing custom HAL, drivers, and middleware on bare-metal or lightweight RTOS platforms
- Working knowledge of safety-rated Real-Time Operating Systems
- Experience with automotive communication protocols (CAN, LIN) and peripheral interfaces (SPI, I2C, UART)
- Comfortable using Git and working in a Linux development environment
- Proficiency with hardware debugging tools (SWD/JTAG, multimeter, oscilloscope, logic analyzer)
- Eligible to work in the United States, * Experience taking an embedded system from concept to production
- Experience with safety-critical or fault-tolerant systems in automotive, aerospace, or robotics
- Familiarity with ISO 26262 and functional safety concepts
- Experience with modern C++ and/or Rust
- Automotive Ethernet (100M/1G-T1), TSN/gPTP
- Experience with embedded security and/or automotive security
- MISRA C/C++ compliance and static analysis tooling
- Python for test automation and scripting
- Familiarity with HARA, FMEA, and safety-case development
- Experience augmenting firmware development with LLMs while maintaining rigor and responsibility
