Remote Embedded Engineer information

What is a Remote Embedded Engineer?

A Remote Embedded Engineer is a professional who designs, develops, and maintains embedded systems, such as microcontrollers or specialized hardware, while working from a location outside the traditional office environment. They use programming languages like C or C++ to create software that interacts directly with hardware components. Remote Embedded Engineers often collaborate with teams using online tools, manage tasks independently, and ensure the reliability and efficiency of embedded systems across industries such as automotive, medical devices, or IoT. Their work enables connectivity and functionality in a wide range of smart devices.

How do Remote Embedded Engineers typically collaborate with hardware teams when working off-site?

Remote Embedded Engineers often use a combination of version control systems, video conferencing, and remote desktop tools to stay in sync with hardware teams. They may participate in daily standups, share code and test results through collaborative platforms, and sometimes use hardware simulators or remote lab access for testing. Regular documentation and clear communication are key, as are scheduled sync meetings to address integration issues and align project milestones. This structure helps ensure smooth coordination despite physical distance.

What is the difference between Remote Embedded Engineer vs Remote Firmware Engineer?

AspectRemote Embedded EngineerRemote Firmware Engineer
Required CredentialsBachelor's in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related; experience with embedded systemsBachelor's in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related; experience with firmware development
Work EnvironmentDesigning and developing embedded hardware/software, often in R&D or product development teamsWriting low-level code for hardware devices, often in manufacturing or product support
Industry UsageElectronics, IoT, automotive, consumer devicesConsumer electronics, IoT, industrial equipment
Common Search/ComparisonRemote Embedded EngineerRemote Firmware Engineer

Both roles focus on embedded systems but differ mainly in scope. Remote Embedded Engineers work on both hardware and software integration, while Remote Firmware Engineers specialize in low-level firmware coding. The choice depends on whether the focus is on hardware-software integration or firmware development.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Remote Embedded Engineer, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Embedded Engineer, you need expertise in embedded systems design, proficiency in programming languages like C/C++, and a background in electrical or computer engineering. Familiarity with microcontrollers, real-time operating systems (RTOS), hardware debugging tools, and version control systems such as Git is typically required. Strong problem-solving abilities, self-motivation, and effective remote communication skills make candidates stand out in this role. These competencies are vital to ensure reliable embedded solutions, efficient project collaboration, and independent productivity in a remote environment.

Job description

Your work days are brighter here.

We're obsessed with making hard work pay off, for our people, our customers, and the world around us. As a Fortune 500 company and a leading AI platform for managing people, money, and agents, we're shaping the future of work so teams can reach their potential and focus on what matters most. The minute you join, you'll feel it. Not just in the products we build, but in how we show up for each other. Our culture is rooted in integrity, empathy, and shared enthusiasm. We're in this together, tackling big challenges with bold ideas and genuine care. We look for curious minds and courageous collaborators who bring sun-drenched optimism and drive. Whether you're building smarter solutions, supporting customers, or creating a space where everyone belongs, you'll do meaningful work with Workmates who've got your back. In return, we'll give you the trust to take risks, the tools to grow, the skills to develop and the support of a company invested in you for the long haul. So, if you want to inspire a brighter work day for everyone, including yourself, you've found a match in Workday, and we hope to be a match for you too.

About the Team

Agent Factory is where Workday's next chapter gets built. We're forming small, senior, cross-functional AI teams that bring together product leaders, machine learning engineers, and full-stack builders to create intelligent agents used by millions of people every day. This is production-grade AI-deeply embedded into Workday's platform-not research experiments or maintenance work. Teams own problems end to end, collaborate tightly across disciplines, and use the right tools to solve real customer challenges at global scale. You'll work at the intersection of AI, platform architecture, and human workflows, with the autonomy to shape how agents reason, act, and scale responsibly. High trust, high expectations, and real impact. Engineering, but brighter.

About the Role

As a Senior Full Stack Software Engineer in Agent Factory, you'll help build the user-facing and platform experiences that bring Workday's AI agents to life. Working within a small, cross-functional pod, you'll design and ship full stack solutions-from intuitive front-end experiences to resilient backend services that integrate AI-driven capabilities deeply into HR and Finance workflows. This role is about turning powerful technology into products people actually use: scalable, reliable systems that simplify complex business processes for customers around the world. You'll collaborate closely with machine learning engineers, product managers, and platform teams, owning features end to end and seeing your work run in production. If you enjoy building real products, solving meaningful problems, and working with people who care about quality and craft, you'll feel right at home here.

Your responsibilities:

  • Build and deliver full stack features that power AI agents embedded in HR and Financial workflows

  • Own services and experiences from development through production-you build it, you run it

  • Collaborate in an iterative, team-first environment that values strong engineering practices and continuous learning

  • Share knowledge, mentor teammates, and help raise the technical bar across the pod

About You

Basic Qualifications:

  • 8+ years of experience in software engineering

  • 5+ years experience with a web development framework (Python preferred: Flask, Django, or FastAPI)

  • 5+ years with a Relational DB (PostgreSQL preferred)

Other Qualifications:

  • Experience building and operating SaaS products in cloud environments (AWS preferred)

  • Familiarity with the tradeoffs and architecture of modern distributed systems

  • Knowledge of software development best practices (DevOps, CI/CD, automated testing, observability)

  • Hands-on experience with containerization technologies (Docker, Kubernetes)

  • Familiarity with Elasticsearch

  • Exposure to additional programming languages like Java (backend) and TypeScript (frontend/fullstack) is a plus

  • Proven success working within fast-paced, agile environments and cross-functional teams

  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to collaborate with both technical and non-technical partners

  • Comfortable working with ambiguity and translating complex problems into clear, thoughtful solutions

  • Committed to fostering an inclusive, team-oriented environment and contributing to a culture of continuous improvement

Our Approach to Flexible Work

With Flex Work, we're combining the best of both worlds: in-person time and remote. Our approach enables our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and do their best work. We know that flexibility can take shape in many ways, so rather than a number of required days in-office each week, we simply spend at least half (50%) of our time each quarter in the office or in the field with our customers, prospects, and partners (depending on role). This means you'll have the freedom to create a flexible schedule that caters to your business, team, and personal needs, while being intentional to make the most of time spent together. Those in our remote "home office" roles also have the opportunity to come together in our offices for important moments that matter.

Pursuant to applicable Fair Chance law, Workday will consider for employment qualified applicants with arrest and conviction records.

Workday is an Equal Opportunity Employer including individuals with disabilities and protected veterans.
