At a glance
As a Senior Firmware Engineer on the embedded systems team, you will design and implement real-time applications within an RTOS environment, focusing on task management, thread handling, and inter-process communication to ensure deterministic system behavior. You will also architect robust software using RTOS primitives like mutexes, semaphores, message queues, and event flags to manage concurrency and resource sharing effectively. The ideal candidate has over five years of experience in firmware or embedded software development with expertise in popular RTOS platforms such as FreeRTOS, Zephyr, RTX, and ThreadX. Strong skills in real-time scheduling algorithms and task management are essential, along with proficiency in C/C++ and a deep understanding of hardware-software integration in embedded systems. This role involves working on complex, high-reliability systems where performance optimization and fault tolerance are critical.
