Description

If you are an embedded software engineer that enjoys working on real products, close to hardware, and want to see your work go from code to manufacturing on-site, this could be a great fit.


The embedded team is expanding as they build out the next generation of their platform, consolidating codebases, moving to new hardware, meeting new cybersecurity and multimedia requirements.  It’s varied, hands‑on embedded work with plenty of technical depth.


There is lots of variety and depending on your skills and interests you could work on porting existing embedded software to new hardware, integrating a modern Linux environment, adding cybersecurity features, complex networking, video codecs, rendering technology and more.


Although they have a hybrid work policy (2 days from home) and flexible start times, most of the interesting work happens in the office where you’ll integrate with physical equipment, hardware engineers, firmware and test teams.
