The ideal candidate will have extensive experience leading embedded software projects-especially in image processing and wireless connectivity applications-and a passion for developing innovative, high-performance outdoor technology solutions. 

Responsibilities:

  • Lead the design and implementation of embedded software for wireless camera products.
  • Maintain and evolve embedded software architecture, product design documentation, and prototyping capabilities.
  • Provide technical guidance and oversight to third-party design partners and engineering contractors.
  • Collaborate with hardware engineers to ensure optimal integration of electronics and embedded software.
  • Work closely with mobile app developers for seamless integration with iOS and Android platforms.
  • Support Bluetooth/BLE, Cellular/LTE, and Wi-Fi regulatory testing and certification processes.
  • Partner with QA teams to troubleshoot and resolve issues during product verification and validation phases.

Requirements:

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field. 
  • 7-12 years of experience in embedded software engineering, specifically in C/C++ applications.
  • Technical Proficiency:
    • Strong background in IoT video streaming technologies (H.264, RTSP, WebRTC).
    • Expertise in embedded Linux board bring-up using Buildroot or Yocto.
    • Object-oriented design and software architecture best practices.
    • Hardware interface experience with I2C, SPI, UART, USB, and MIPI CSI-2.
    • Skilled in using embedded debugging tools (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, protocol analyzers, etc.).
    • Experience with embedded software unit testing and secure software development.
  • Workflow & Collaboration:
    • Comfortable working in Agile environments (Scrum, Kanban).
    • Proficient with Git, Jira, GitHub/GitLab, and modern DevOps workflows.
    • Excellent communication skills for both technical and non-technical audiences.

Preferred Qualifications: 

  • Development experience with AWS C/C++ SDKs (S3, MQTT, Kinesis).
  • Familiarity with Over-the-Air (OTA) firmware update methodologies for IoT devices.
  • Scripting experience in Bash, Python, LuaJIT, and GNU Make.
  • Experience collaborating with third-party design partners to build and debug firmware.
  • Knowledge of image compression and transmission algorithms.
  • Understanding of cellular and wireless technologies (LTE, Wi-Fi, BLE, NFC). Familiarity with LTE networks and IoT applications in connected device ecosystems. 

While we are open to remote applicants, a strong preference will be given to candidates currently located in, or willing to relocate to, Billings, MT.
