Firmware Engineer - ESC

We are looking for a Firmware Engineer to design, develop, and maintain embedded firmware for products based on STM32 microcontrollers. You will work close to the hardware, implementing low-level drivers, real-time functionality, and reliable embedded systems used in production devices.

Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain firmware for STM32 microcontrollers
• Develop motor controller/ESC algorithms for our various products
• Implement and debug low-level drivers (GPIO, UART, SPI, I2C, CAN, USB, ADC, timers, DMA)
• Develop firmware using C/C (bare-metal and/or RTOS environments)
• Work with STM32 HAL/LL, CMSIS, and vendor toolchains
• Integrate firmware with hardware designs and collaborate closely with hardware engineers
• Debug and troubleshoot issues using tools such as JTAG/SWD, logic analyzers, oscilloscopes
• Optimize firmware for performance, memory usage, and power consumption
• Participate in code reviews and follow best practices for embedded software development
• Write and maintain technical documentation
• Support manufacturing, testing, and field issues as needed
  
  

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent experience
• Experience with AC/BLDC motor control algorithms
• Strong experience developing firmware for STM32 microcontrollers
• Proficiency in embedded C/C
• Solid understanding of microcontroller architectures, peripherals, and datasheets
• Experience with bare-metal development and/or RTOS (FreeRTOS or similar)
• Familiarity with debugging embedded systems using JTAG/SWD
• Experience using Git or other version control systems
  
  

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with FreeRTOS or other real-time operating systems
• Knowledge of low-power design techniques
• Experience with bootloaders and firmware update mechanisms
• Familiarity with communication protocols (CAN, Ethernet, USB)
• Experience bringing up new hardware revisions
• Exposure to automated testing or CI for embedded systems
  
  

Nice to Have

• Experience with other MCU families (NXP, Nordic, Microchip, TI)
• Basic understanding of hardware schematics
• Experience with safety-critical or regulated products
• Knowledge of embedded security concepts (secure boot, firmware signing)
  
  

What we offer

• Opportunity to work on real-world embedded products
• Collaborative environment with hardware and systems engineers
• Competitive compensation and benefits
• Room for technical growth and ownership
  
  

Compensation Range: $100K - $180K
