We are seeking a Embedded Systems Software Architect to own the technical direction of our embedded software platforms. This role combines hands-on development, system architecture, and technical leadership, guiding a team of embedded engineers while ensuring high-quality, scalable, and reliable software across current and future products.
You will act as the technical authority for embedded software, working closely with hardware, systems, and product stakeholders to translate requirements into robust software solutions.
What will your job look like?
Lead the technical direction and architecture of embedded software platforms across middleware and application layers.
Serve as the technical authority for embedded software, combining hands-on C/C++ development with system-level ownership.
Design scalable, modular software architectures and define clear interfaces between hardware, OS services, middleware, and application software.
Drive key technical decisions, architectural trade-offs, and long-term roadmap.
Develop and integrate middleware and application-layer components, including multi-threaded and real-time logic.
Lead design reviews, mentor embedded software engineers, and promote high coding and architectural standards.
Take ownership of complex system-level debugging, performance optimization, and software quality.
Work closely with OS, systems, product, QA, and manufacturing teams to translate product requirements into robust technical solutions.
Requirements: Bachelors or Masters degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or Computer Science.
15+ years of experience in embedded software development, including 7+ years in a senior, technical lead, or architect role.
Expert-level proficiency in C and C++, with hands-on experience in RTOS and/or Embedded Linux.
Strong system-level understanding of embedded platforms and cross-layer interactions (hardware, OS, middleware, application).
Proven ability to design modular software architectures and translate system requirements into well-defined interfaces.
Strong debugging skills and experience resolving complex system-level and cross-component issues.
Solid understanding of real-time systems, concurrency, memory management, and low-level debugging.
Experience working with ARM/MIPS-based SoCs and microcontrollers.
Proven experience leading design discussions and code reviews.
Knowledge of communication and networking protocols (I²C, SPI, UART, CAN, Ethernet, TCP/IP)- Advantages.
