What is an embedded programmer?

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.

What skills and qualifications are needed to thrive as an embedded programmer?

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 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.

Job description

Embedded Systems Engineer
This engagement will support standing up a dedicated edge-compute environment for a new LiDAR ground-truth pipeline, operating alongside their existing vehicle edge platform. Our engineer will lead board-level bring-up, BSP development, driver integration, and low-level platform work - partnering closely with the Perception & Sensor Fusion Engineer, who owns sensor calibration, synchronization, and the perception logic running on top of the platform.
What You'll Do
  • Design and stand up a dedicated edge-compute unit, potentially using an NVIDIA Orin-class platform, to support LiDAR and multi-sensor processing.
  • Own board support package (BSP) bring-up and driver modifications required for camera, LiDAR, and other vehicle sensor integration.
  • Implement OS- and microprocessor-level functionality supporting millisecond-level multi-sensor time synchronization.
  • Support on-device storage and upload infrastructure for captured sensor data.
  • Collaborate closely with perception, platform, and OS engineering teams on hardware/software integration.
  • Develop and validate functionality using mock or synthetic sensor data during initial development.

What You'll Bring
  • Strong C/C++ experience, including low-level driver development and BSP/board bring-up on embedded or edge hardware.
  • Experience bringing up and developing on RTOS, embedded Linux, QNX, or similar operating systems on ARM-based or comparable platforms.
  • Experience working in resource-constrained, real-time edge-compute environments.
  • Hands-on experience with camera, LiDAR, radar, IMU, or other sensor integration at the embedded/platform level.
  • Prior experience within automotive, ADAS, autonomous vehicles, robotics, drones, or another sensor-intensive autonomous system.
  • Strong hardware/software debugging and systems-integration experience.
  • Ability to work North American business hours with strong written and verbal communication skills.

Bonus Experience
  • Direct experience with LiDAR integration at the BSP or driver level.
  • Experience supporting ADAS, autonomous-driving, perception, or sensor-fusion platforms.
  • Experience with NVIDIA Jetson, Orin, DRIVE, or similar edge-compute platforms.
  • Experience with multi-sensor time synchronization, hardware timestamping, PTP/PPS, or related technologies.
  • Background in autonomous vehicles, robotics, drones, or industrial collision-avoidance/safety systems.
