- Develop low-level firmware/software for microcontroller platforms interfacing to robots, or control algorithms for OTS Data acquisition tools.
- Build capability for device side validation of system-level features, utilizing SSH, gRPC, while creating or leveraging existing debug tools.
- Quickly debug and troubleshoot issues that span the electrical, firmware, and software boundaries, and transfer that process to automated test and failure analysis SOPs for production line staff.
- Engage in DFT/DFM reviews with electrical engineering and product firmware teams.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
- 10+ years of relevant industry experience.
- Bring up and Debug expertise for new designs, comfortable with low and high-speed interfaces
- Strong fundamentals for data acquisition and analysis (FFT, Bode, control loops)
- Experience with one or more microcontroller cores (ARM, AVR, MSP430, PIC, etc.)
- Experience with embedded Linux development and deployment process
- Debugging skills with JTAG, SWD, Oscilloscopes, and Logic analyzers
- Have a bias for action. If you see a problem, you want to solve and fix it
- Be naturally curious about the technologies and tools you use
