## Description

You will be responsible for embedded firmware for Ethernovia's networking devices - firmware that configures, controls, and monitors the communication device, and interacts with the host system via device drivers to expose hardware features.

As part of the Software team, you will own the architecture, design, implementation, testing, and integration of firmware that rolls into Ethernovia's SDK, built ground-up for safety-critical automotive applications. We build products with strict adherence to Functional Safety, and every team member is expected to embrace a culture of safety and engineering best practices.
