Responsibilities
- Lead the end-to-end development of an ultra-low-power wireless device, from architecture design to high-volume production; Write and optimize production-ready C code for embedded systems running TI-RTOS and Zephyr RTOS.
- Leverage Git for version control, maintaining clean, modular codebases and streamlined team workflows; Use Python, Bash, and Linux to automate workflows, analyze data, and enhance development processes.
- Apply math and physics expertise for power accounting and systems-of-systems optimization in resource-constrained environments.
- Design and implement HIL/SIL testing frameworks to validate robust, fail-safe code before V&V handoff; Collaborate with mechanical and industrial design teams to align on product vision, and partner with V&V to ensure flawless execution.
- Perform hands-on board bring-up and system debugging to integrate hardware and software seamlessly.
- Maintain meticulous documentation and communicate progress/design intent in regular manager syncs.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience with schematic capture and board layout using Altium.
- Familiarity with engineering design and analysis using spreadsheets (e.g., power budgeting, system modeling).
- Knowledge of ultra-low-power wireless protocols (e.g., IEEE 802.15.4, BLE, 900MHz) or RF design.
- Background in mentoring junior engineers or leading cross-functional teams.
- Personal projects showcasing initiative and technical depth (include these with your application!).
- Familiarity with the startup environment.
