• Develop efficient, reliable, and maintainable code for resource-constrained embedded environments.
• Work closely with hardware and system engineers to understand product requirements and translate them into software solutions.
• Perform close-to-hardware debugging, troubleshooting software defects and identifying root causes across hardware-software interfaces.
• Analyze software issues using debugging tools, logs, traces, and other diagnostic techniques.
• Apply strong data structures and programming fundamentals to develop robust and optimized software components.
• Participate in code reviews, unit testing, integration testing, and software verification activities.
• Collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams to resolve technical issues and deliver software according to project requirements.
• Contribute to software documentation, technical specifications, development processes, and defect tracking.
• Support continuous improvement of software quality, performance, reliability, and development practices.

Required Skills

• Strong programming knowledge in C++.
• Hands-on or academic experience with Embedded C.
• Good understanding of Data Structures and Algorithms.
• Strong understanding of object-oriented programming and fundamental software engineering concepts.
• Ability to analyze problems, debug code, and develop structured technical solutions.
• Good communication and collaboration skills.
• Strong willingness to learn embedded technologies and work on hardware-oriented software development.

Good-to-Have Skills

• Experience or familiarity with RTOS (Real-Time Operating Systems).
• Working knowledge of Linux environments and command-line tools.
• Understanding of ARM architecture and ARM-based embedded systems.
• Familiarity with embedded debugging tools, compilers, debuggers, and version-control systems.
• Exposure to software development and testing within a product engineering environment.

Experience & Qualifications

• Experience: 0–5 years in software or embedded software development.
• Fresh graduates with strong C/C++ fundamentals and relevant academic projects are encouraged to apply.
• Candidates with up to 2 years of hands-on embedded development experience will be particularly suitable.
