Developer II

About the Role

The Developer I – Embedded Firmware will join a product development team responsible for delivering new functionalities, modifying existing features, and improving product performance as needed. Working within the Embedded Firmware development group, the engineer will collaborate with a technical lead to design, develop, and test firmware for fire detection systems. Core responsibilities include working with the technical lead on software sub‑modules, coding and testing embedded systems with minimal supervision, and preparing design specifications, test plans, and protocol documents. You will support project planning, effort estimation, coding, unit testing, and participate in design, code, and product development meetings. The role also involves assisting compliance, approvals, and factory testing, as well as recommending updates to firmware development guidelines and standards. Continuous learning through interaction with other groups, external experts, and independent research is expected. • Design, code, and test embedded firmware for fire detection systems with minimal supervision. • Create software design specs, test plans, and protocol documentation. • Contribute to project planning, effort estimation, code reviews, and compliance support. • Develop drivers and middleware for Renesas, Microchip, or ST microcontrollers using C, C++, RTOS, and Linux. • Manage source code with GitHub and track issues using JIRA. • Debug hardware and firmware using ICE, GDB, JTAG, and chip programmers. • Apply expertise in analog/digital hardware interfacing and bus protocols (I2C, SPI, UART).
