As a Software Engineer with a focus on the embedded systems on the Tools & Infrastructure team you will be responsible for delivering high quality systems software spanning deeply embedded firmware libraries to code generation and tooling.
You will solve problems inherent to complex communications networks such as reliability, testability, extensibility, and developer ease of use.
Tools & Infra embedded software engineers use creative software engineering techniques at both the tooling (. code generation) and firmware (.
c libraries) levels to implement communications standards where available and design custom protocols when necessary. Tools & Infra embedded software engineers also develop high quality systems and frameworks that enable application developers to write reliable actor based, concurrent, real-time applications.
Be part of an innovative engineering team bringing modern software development tooling and practices into the world of embedded systems.
