Job description
We're looking for a hands-on Software Engineering Manager to lead a talented embedded software team developing next-generation hardware and software products. This is an opportunity to combine technical leadership with hands-on engineering, influencing architecture, product strategy, and the future direction of an established technology platform.
This is not a role where you'll spend your day in meetings. You'll mentor engineers, drive technical decisions, collaborate across engineering and the business, and remain involved in the design and development process.
What you'll be doing:
- Hands-on leading and mentoring a team of approximately 10 embedded software engineers and technical professionals focused on embedded system development.
- Lead development of C++ embedded software running on Linux and Windows platforms.
- Drive architecture, design, development, testing, and maintenance of embedded software products.
- Partner with Electrical Engineering to define next-generation hardware platforms.
- Collaborate with R&D, Operations, Product Management, Sales, and other stakeholders to translate business needs into technical solutions.
- Champion software engineering best practices including code reviews, unit testing, CI/CD, source control, and Agile development.
- Support product validation, troubleshooting, and continuous product improvement.
Requirements
This role requires very strong experience in C++, RTOS, and its related security, networking, and drivers., * BS or MS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
- 10+ years of embedded software development experience.
- Current C++ development experience on embedded platforms in Linux and/or Windows embedded environments.
- Background with Git, Jenkins (or similar CI tools), Jira, automated testing, and Agile development.
- Experience leading projects or mentoring software engineers; previous people management is a plus.
- Knowledge of embedded hardware, communication protocols, and object-oriented design.
Nice to have:
- Qt
- Python
- FPGA experience
- AWS or cloud technologies
- Image processing or rendering experience
If you've built embedded software products, enjoy leading engineers, and still like being close to the technology, we'd like to hear from you.
