    • 2+ years of experience in embedded firmware development, with a focus on motor control
    • Proficient in C and C++ for embedded systems programming
    • Deep understanding of electric motors, control theory, and their application in real-time systems
    • Hands-on experience implementing Field-Oriented Control (FOC) for brushless DC
    • Familiarity with communication protocols such as CAN, EtherCAT, SPI, I2C, and UART
    • Experience integrating sensors (e.g., current, position) into embedded systems
    • Experience with encoder technologies, including Hall effect and optical encoders, and developing calibration routines
    • Strong analytical and debugging skills across firmware, hardware, and systems-level interactions
    • Ability to collaborate with hardware teams and interpret schematics and PCB layouts
    • Experience with or understanding of PCB design and hardware bring-up
    • Comfortable working on Linux systems for embedded development, firmware host tooling, and system integration
    • Experience with RTOS (e.g., FreeRTOS) and embedded Linux systems
    • Clear written and verbal communication skills with the ability to document technical processes and designs
    • A proactive, self-directed mindset with a willingness to work in a hands-on, fast-paced, and cross-disciplinary environment
    • Familiarity with bootloaders, including how to implement, configure, and modify them to support secure and efficient firmware updates
    • Proficient with version control using Git for managing codebase history, branches, and collaborative development workflows

    Key Accountabilities:

    • Develop and maintain real-time embedded firmware for motor controllers and robotic subsystems
    • Implement, test, and tune control algorithms (e.g., FOC) to achieve high performance and stability
    • Interface with and calibrate position, current, temperature, and other sensors for accurate control feedback
    • Integrate and troubleshoot communication interfaces such as CAN, SPI, I2C, and EtherCAT
    • Work collaboratively with hardware and mechanical engineers to bring up and debug new boards and systems
    • Perform system-level debugging and validation, using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and other lab tools
    • Participate in hardware bring-up and prototype development, including testing and validation
    • Optimize firmware for performance, memory usage, and power efficiency
    • Maintain thorough documentation of firmware architecture, control strategies, testing procedures, and technical decisions
    • Contribute to continuous improvement of engineering practices, codebase structure, and product reliability
    • Work with RTOS or embedded Linux environments to support real-time scheduling, multitasking, and system integration
    • Stay current with trends in embedded systems, robotics, and motor control, and bring forward innovative ideas to enhance product performance
