Embedded Software Engineer

1. Role Objective

To design, develop, test, and maintain embedded software systems for electronic products. The role requires strong collaboration with hardware teams, efficient firmware development, and system-level integration to ensure robust and high-performance product delivery.

2. Key Responsibilities

A. Embedded Software Development

• Develop embedded firmware using C/C++ and Assembly for microcontrollers such as ARM, AVR, or PIC
• Write and optimize device drivers for peripherals like UART, SPI, I2C, CAN, and USB
• Implement bare-metal programming or RTOS-based development as per project requirements

B. Hardware Integration

• Work with hardware design engineers to ensure seamless hardware-software integration
• Validate electronic schematics and assist in PCB bring-up
• Conduct signal-level debugging using tools such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, etc.

C. Testing and Debugging

• Perform unit, integration, and system-level testing
• Use debugging tools such as JTAG/SWD and logic analyzers
• Maintain and utilize version control systems like Git

D. Documentation

• Prepare software design documentation, code comments, user manuals, and release notes
• Maintain version-controlled documents for traceability and audits

E. Project Support and Collaboration

• Participate in agile sprints and daily scrums
• Coordinate with QA and production teams for validation and product support
• Provide technical support during manufacturing and deployment phases

3. Required Skills and Qualifications
