Embedded Software Engineer

As an embedded software engineer, you will work with a group of electrical, mechanical and other software engineers on a variety of engineering assignments. These tasks will span all stages of electronic product development including concept, design, prototyping, testing, installation, and maintenance of microcontroller-based electronic devices used in rugged outdoor environments

You will primarily use C and Zephyr to develop microcontroller firmware for our ecosystem of devices. Additionally, you may use other languages such as Python or .NET to interact with, test, and validate the performance of the embedded software. You may also work with contractors to support development and testing hardware and software.
