Senior Firmware Engineer Jobs in Utah (NOW HIRING)

LVT is redefining how businesses operate in the physical world, moving beyond traditional security solutions to deliver AI-driven, actionable intelligence that makes sites smarter, safer, and more secure. Since pioneering our first mobile, solar-powered units, our commitment to scrappy, hands-on innovation has made us an established leader and one of the fastest-growing companies in intelligent site technology. We are building the next generation of solutions-from our physical units in the field to a powerful Agentic AI platform-that allows our customers to gain unprecedented visibility and control over safety, compliance, and operations. This is your chance to join a cutting-edge team that isn't just watching the world change, but actively building the technology that is changing it.

We're a team that's focused on growth and innovation, and we're proud that our crew, products, and leadership are being recognized for it.

• A Top-Tier Growth Company: Named one of the Financial Times' Fastest Growing Companies 2025 and #10 on the Inc. 5000 Rocky Mountain Regional list for 2025.
• Innovative Leadership: Our CEO, Ryan Porter, was named an EY Entrepreneur of the Year 2025, and our CTO, Steve Lindsey, was inducted into the Silicon Slopes CTO Hall of Fame in 2024.
• Product & Software Excellence: We were named one of The Software Report's Top 100 Software Companies of 2023 and are a winner of the Security Today Govies Award for 2025.

As a Senior Electrical Engineer, you will be a critical technical anchor within LVT's hardware team, operating with high autonomy to shape technical direction and raise the engineering bar across the organization. In this role, you won't just design boards; you will tackle our most complex electrical challenges, from high-speed routing and vision processor integration to ultra-low power optimization for our rugged, distributed hardware.

You will lead discrete technical efforts end-to-end, steering critical architecture decisions and driving technical execution with our Joint Development Manufacturers (JDMs) to ensure seamless transitions from Altium to scaled production.

This role is based on-site at our American Fork, Utah facility, supporting operations across both our American Fork and Spanish Fork locations. Occasional travel may be required for vendor engagements, JDM alignment, and field initiatives.

• Technical Execution & PCB Design: Own the design, testing, and delivery of electrical systems and components within your assigned scope. Utilize Altium (or equivalent ECAD) to design complex PCBs from scratch, producing work that meets LVT's high quality and reliability standards.

• Architecture & High-Speed Design Contribution: Participate in architecture and design discussions, contributing well-reasoned technical input. Implement designs aligned with team direction, specifically addressing challenges related to high-speed routing (e.g., LPDDR, MIPI interfaces) and vision processors/SoCs (such as Ambarella).

• Low-Power Optimization: Design and optimize embedded devices for ultra-low power consumption, strategically balancing hardware and firmware trade-offs to maximize efficiency.

• External Partner & JDM Support: Assist in engagements with external vendors, suppliers, and Joint Development Manufacturers (JDMs). Successfully manage the split of design ownership, coordinate on specifications, evaluate components, and ensure strict quality control during co-development.

• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with firmware, mechanical, and product teams on day-to-day execution, proactively communicating dependencies and progress to drive successful product launches.

• Risk Awareness & DFM: Identify technical risks early. Apply rigorous Design for Manufacturing (DFM) principles when transitioning designs from Altium to production to minimize board spins and assembly errors.

• Process Adherence and Improvement: Follow established engineering standards and flag opportunities for improvement as you encounter them.

• Continuous Growth: Actively develop your technical skills and domain knowledge, seeking feedback and taking on stretch assignments to broaden your impact across multiple product designs.

• Solid Technical Foundation: Demonstrated competency in electrical engineering with a proven track record of significantly contributing to multiple hardware designs. Hands-on experience is required in Altium/ECAD design, embedded systems, and at least one of: power electronics, vision processor integration, or hardware system integration

• Production & Launch Experience: Proven experience bringing hardware through the full product lifecycle, from initial schematic capture to successful commercial product launches.

• Reliable Executor: Able to independently drive assigned work to completion, managing your own time and communicating proactively when blocked.

• Technically Curious & Analytical: Digs into problems to understand root causes (such as complex power delivery issues or hardware/firmware bottlenecks) rather than just symptoms, bringing rigor to design and debugging.

• Team Player & Collaborator: Collaborates well across disciplines and with external JDM partners, shares knowledge openly, and takes feedback constructively.

• Growing Communicator: Able to document and explain your work clearly (e.g., schematics, DFM documentation, and technical trade-offs) to teammates and adjacent teams.

• Quality-Minded: Takes pride in building things that last-attentive to edge cases, power optimization, test coverage, and long-term maintainability.

We believe you do your best work when your whole life is supported. We invest in our crew's health, families, and financial futures with a benefits package designed to support you inside and outside the office.
