Our client is seeking a Senior Embedded Software Engineer with a strong Electrical Engineering background to lead the design and development of embedded software, control systems, and test platforms for high-voltage and power electronic products. In this role, you will act as a technical leader, mentoring engineers and serving as a key bridge between hardware, firmware, and application software teams.

Key Responsibilities

•      Lead the architecture, design, and implementation of embedded software and control algorithms for power and high-voltage systems.

•      Collaborate closely with electrical and hardware engineers on system requirements, hardware/software interfaces, and design trade-offs.

•      Develop and maintain firmware for microcontrollers and real-time systems, including communication, control loops, and safety features.

•      Design and build internal tools for automated testing, verification, data collection, and diagnostics of power electronic systems.

•      Drive root-cause analysis and resolution of complex system issues involving both software and hardware.

•      Review code and designs, set best practices, and mentor junior engineers in software engineering and embedded development.

•      Contribute to product roadmaps, estimation, and planning with cross-functional stakeholders (engineering, product, manufacturing, quality).

•      Ensure compliance with relevant safety, regulatory, and quality standards for products in regulated industries.

Qualifications

•      Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field; Master’s degree preferred.

•      5 years of professional software development experience, with at least 3 years in embedded or hardware-related environments.

•      Strong proficiency in C/C ; experience with Python or similar scripting languages for tooling and automation.

•      Solid understanding of circuits, power electronics fundamentals, and hardware design constraints.

•      Hands-on experience with microcontrollers, communication protocols (UART, SPI, I2C, CAN), and hardware bring-up.

•      Proficiency with laboratory and debugging equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, multimeters) and low-level debugging techniques.

•      Demonstrated experience leading technical projects and mentoring other engineers.

•      Strong communication skills and ability to work effectively with cross-functional teams.

Preferred Qualifications

•      Experience with high-voltage systems, power supplies, motor drives, or similar power electronic products.

•      Knowledge of real-time operating systems (RTOS) and safety-critical or high-reliability systems.

•      Familiarity with tools such as LabVIEW, MATLAB/Simulink, or similar engineering and test platforms.

•      Experience in regulated industries (medical, aerospace, industrial safety) and associated compliance standards.

•      Background in developing automated test infrastructure for production and validation.

What’s Offered

•      Competitive salary

•      Comprehensive health insurance (medical, dental, vision, life, STD, LTD).

•      401(k) retirement plan.

•      Opportunities for professional development and advancement.

•      Dynamic, collaborative, and innovative work environment.

If you are a results-driven engineering professional with a passion for electronics and embedded systems, we encourage you to apply.
