Tactacam is seeking a highly skilled Senior Embedded Software Engineer to join our Reveal Product Engineering organization. This role will focus on the design, development, and optimization of embedded software systems for wireless cameras and cellular IoT devices. As a key technical contributor, you will work closely with cross-functional teams including internal engineering, contract design partners, and manufacturing teams. 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.
