We are looking for a professional Embedded Software Engineer to execute complete embedded software development lifecycle. The goal is to create scalable and optimized software systems.
As an Embedded Software Engineer, your day-to-day activities may include:
Designing and developing software solutions for embedded systems: You will be responsible for the design and development of software that runs on embedded systems, such as microcontrollers or other specialized hardware.
Writing and debugging code: You will write, test, and debug software code using programming languages like C, C++, or assembly language specific to the embedded system you are working on. You will also utilize debugging tools and techniques to identify and fix any issues that arise.
Collaborating with cross-functional teams: You will work closely with hardware engineers, system architects, and other stakeholders to understand system requirements, design software interfaces, and ensure the software and hardware work together seamlessly.
Conducting feasibility studies and performance optimizations: You may be involved in conducting feasibility studies to evaluate different software solutions or algorithms for specific embedded system requirements. Additionally, you will optimize software performance to ensure efficient execution on limited resources.
Testing and validation: You will develop test plans and perform thorough testing of the embedded software to ensure it meets functional requirements and works reliably in different operating conditions or use cases. This may involve conducting unit tests, integration tests, system-level tests, or writing automated test scripts.
Documenting and maintaining software: You will create documentation that describes the software architecture, interfaces, and functionality. This documentation will serve as a reference for other team members or future maintenance and upgrades.
Keeping up with industry trends and advancements: Embedded systems evolve rapidly, so staying updated with the latest technologies, tools, and best practices is essential. You may spend time researching and learning about new technologies or attending relevant conferences or workshops.
Troubleshooting and providing technical support: If issues arise in deployed systems, you may be involved in troubleshooting and providing technical support to identify and resolve software-related problems.
It's important to note that the exact tasks and priorities may vary based on the specific project, company, and industry you are working in.
