What are the responsibilities and job description for the Firmware Engineer position at The Davis Companies?

Looking for a hands on Electrical Engineer who enjoys building & working in a fast paced prototyping environment. Need to have experience integrating embedded systems with industrial hardware.

This role is build focused - you ll be working across electronics, controls, instrumentation, and embedded systems, getting prototypes up & running quickly, and then iterating, testing, and troubleshooting as they move into real world use.

We are looking for someone with strong hands on bench skills i.e soldering, wiring, and using scopes, meters, and power supplies. You will bring experience with embedded systems, microcontrollers, and some coding (C / Python), along with exposure to sensors, data acquisition, and basic controls or power systems. Also need to be comfortable debugging across hardware and firmware.

The ideal candidate would be someone who can work with limited direction and who also thrives in a build & test environment.

Will initially be a contract role - however there will be the opportunity to convert to direct down the road.
