- Implement drivers for microcontroller peripherals and external sensors
- Work with our backend codebase to develop and test device communications
- Maintain and extend our build system to support various embedded hardware platforms
- Develop efficient data processing and collection algorithms in a resource-constrained environment
- Develop unit tests, write and execute test plans
- Strong C and/or C++ knowledge
- Python or another scripting language
- Comfortable using Git
- Comfortable in a Linux development environment
- Comfortable working across multiple domains (hardware, firmware, software)
- 3+ years embedded software engineering experience (Embedded Linux, RTOS’s, bare metal, etc)
- Experience developing and debugging hardware
- Strong understanding of operating system and real-time operating system concepts
- Assembly language (extra bonus points for ARM)
- Basic web programming knowledge (backend)
- Comfortable debugging with an oscilloscope and/or logic analyzer
- Professional experience deploying firmware
- Experience with LoRa, SigFox, or other Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWANS)
- Experience with digital signal processing (DSP)
- Previous experience in rapidly scaling startups
