Job description

This role will be on-site 5 days a week in NW Austin.

Scope

As the Senior Manager of MCU Software, you will contribute to the execution, quality, and delivery of Ambiq's AmbiqSuite SDK across current and next-generation ARM Cortex-M-based MCU platforms. This role is responsible for managing the end-to-end software development lifecycle - from architectural implementation through customer deployment - ensuring high-quality, reliable SDK releases aligned with silicon program schedules.

This leader works closely with Architecture, Silicon Design, Validation, Applications Engineering, Field Engineering, Marketing, and Sales to coordinate feature development, resolve technical dependencies, and support successful product launches. The Senior Manager serves as a customer advocate to ensure SDK usability, robustness, power efficiency, and performance meet Ambiq's standards.

The role combines organizational leadership with deep technical engagement in embedded real-time systems. The Senior Manager is accountable for development execution, process discipline, release readiness, and continuous improvement of engineering practices. This position establishes a strong quality culture and ensures consistent, predictable software delivery for Cortex-M-class devices.

Responsibilities 

  • Collaborate with MCU and Radio software leaders to support the development and releases of the AmbiqSuite SDK across multiple ARM Cortex-M MCU product lines.
  • Drive alignment of software development schedules with silicon program milestones for the features assigned to the team.
  • Oversee day-to-day engineering operations, ensuring on-time, high-quality software releases.
  • Ensure robust support for embedded real-time operating systems, including Zephyr and FreeRTOS.
  • Maintain effective development processes, CI/CD workflows, defect tracking, and quality metrics, while looking for areas of improvement.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to resolve technical dependencies and program risks.
  • Serve as the escalation point for complex technical and customer issues related to MCU software.
  • Build, mentor, and manage a high-performing embedded software team, including performance management and career development.
  • Support customer-facing teams to ensure timely issue resolution and strong software enablement.
  • Provide regular status reporting on execution progress, risks, and quality metrics to executive management.

Qualifications

  • BSEE, BSCE, or equivalent technical degree; advanced degree preferred.
  • 12+ years of industry experience, including 6+ years leading embedded software development for semiconductor or device platforms (consumer, medical, industrial, or automotive).
  • Proven experience managing embedded software teams delivering production-quality SDKs or platform software.
  • Deep technical expertise in ARM Cortex-M architecture and low-power MCU systems.
  • Strong hands-on experience developing in C/C++ for embedded real-time environments, including Zephyr and FreeRTOS.
  • Strong understanding of system-level debugging, hardware/software integration, and power-aware design considerations.
  • Hands-on familiarity with lab instrumentation (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, protocol analyzers, wireless test equipment).
  • Experience implementing structured development practices, including Agile methodologies, CI/CD pipelines, automated testing frameworks, and defect tracking systems (e.g., JIRA).
  • Familiarity with Python is a plus.
  • Familiarity with embedded 2D/2.5D GPUs and graphics rendering software is a plus.
  • Experience leveraging modern AI-assisted software development tools (e.g., Cursor, Codex, or similar) is desirable.
  • Strong cross-functional collaboration and communication skills.

**Must be currently authorized to work in the United States for any employer. We do not sponsor or take over sponsorship of employment visas (now or in the future) for this role.
