What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an Embedded Programmer, and why are they important?

To thrive as an Embedded Programmer, you need a solid background in computer science or electrical engineering, strong proficiency in C/C++ programming, and experience with microcontroller architectures. Familiarity with development tools like debuggers, oscilloscopes, version control systems (e.g., Git), and real-time operating systems (RTOS) is typically required. Problem-solving, attention to detail, and effective communication are essential soft skills that set high performers apart. These skills and qualities ensure reliable, efficient code development and smooth collaboration within multidisciplinary engineering teams.

What are some common challenges faced by embedded programmers when integrating hardware and software components?

Embedded programmers often encounter challenges such as limited memory, processing power, and real-time constraints when integrating hardware and software. Debugging can be more complex due to the interaction between code and physical devices, requiring specialized tools like oscilloscopes or logic analyzers. Additionally, ensuring compatibility across various hardware platforms and managing low-level drivers can add to the complexity, making strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail essential in this role.

What are embedded programmers?

Embedded programmers are software developers who specialize in writing code for embedded systems—computers designed to perform dedicated functions within larger mechanical or electrical systems. These programmers typically work with hardware like microcontrollers, sensors, and other specialized devices, often using languages such as C or C++. Their work ensures that devices like medical equipment, automotive controls, consumer electronics, and industrial machines operate reliably and efficiently. Embedded programmers must have a strong understanding of both software development and hardware integration.

Job description

About TRUCE Software
TRUCE Software is the leading provider of workplace and fleet safety solutions. Our software automatically manages mobile device usage, helping organizations reduce distractions, improve compliance, and create safer workplaces.
About the Role
We are expanding our Baton Rouge engineering team to support development of next-generation TRUCE products, including a custom dash camera platform. This role is ideal for an embedded engineer who enjoys working close to hardware and defining systems from the ground up. Because this position involves hands-on board bring-up, hardware debugging, and lab-based validation, regular in-office collaboration is expected. Remote flexibility is available when lab presence is not required.
You will work across embedded firmware, wireless communication (Wi-Fi and Bluetooth), camera systems, and on-device machine learning while owning firmware quality, validation strategy, and long-term reliability.
What You'll Work On
  • Design and implement embedded firmware for custom dash camera platforms
  • Develop multimedia pipelines including RTSP streaming and SD card storage
  • Integrate and configure camera sensors for capture and tuning
  • Develop and maintain wireless communication (Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Aware/NAN, Bluetooth)
  • Enable execution of pretrained ML inference models on embedded hardware
  • Optimize firmware for performance, memory, power, and long-duration stability
  • Bring up and debug new hardware in collaboration with the electrical engineering team
  • Contribute to firmware architecture and long-term platform strategy

Validation & Testing Ownership
  • Develop structured test plans and detailed test cases
  • Execute system-level validation across video, storage, wireless, and ML subsystems
  • Build automated regression and test tooling (Python or similar)
  • Develop hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) or bench-level test environments
  • Support manufacturing test and production firmware validation
  • Investigate field failures and implement corrective actions

Why This Role
  • Own firmware for a new hardware platform from early development through production
  • Direct access to hardware labs for rapid iteration
  • Work on a product combining embedded systems, video, wireless, and ML
  • Influence architecture and validation strategy early
  • Small, high-impact engineering team
  • Real-world safety product with measurable impact

Requirements
Required Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field
  • Professional experience developing embedded firmware in C/C++
  • Experience with real-time or resource-constrained systems
  • Experience interfacing with hardware peripherals (SPI, I2C, UART, etc.)
  • Strong debugging skills at the firmware / hardware boundary
  • Experience developing structured test plans and system-level validation
  • Ability to work onsite in Baton Rouge on a regular basis

Preferred Experience
  • Wi-Fi and/or Bluetooth experience in embedded systems
  • RTSP, video streaming, or multimedia pipeline experience
  • Camera module or image sensor integration
  • SD card interfaces and embedded file systems
  • Machine-learning inference deployment on embedded devices
  • RTOS or bare-metal systems
  • Python for tooling, automation, or testing
  • Experience supporting product validation or manufacturing test

*Must be available for in-person interviews.
