Staff Engineer - Embedded Software

Description

As the Staff Embedded Software Engineer, MCU Software at our client, you will drive the development and testing of core MCU functions in AmbiqSuite SDK on Ambiq SoC devices and emulation platforms. These include features like memory management (Cache, MMU, MPU), data movement (DMA), and general MCU management. You will also be contributing to defining and implementing the multicore software framework and related infrastructure.

This role will work within our global MCU software development team and will work closely with the architecture team and the local MCU SoC design team, focusing on MCU software development and test activities.

A successful candidate should be a fast-learning, result-driven, and self-motivated team player with an “always learning” mindset. He should possess an inquiring spirit and be comfortable working in a lab environment, with the ability to execute hands-on debugging for embedded systems.

The person in this role will be responsible for extending the hardware adaptation layer (HAL) and device drivers of the SDK to new platforms as well as enhancing its features and content, with a focus on memory management and data movement subsystems. The candidate will be involved in the extension of the SDK to cover new MCU members of the family as they become available.
