  3. You'll be familiar with available open source and commercial debug and instrumentation tools, and have defensible positions on their pros, cons and gaps. You need to be able to clearly articulate what features would bring them from usable to useful to good to domain-leading, and articulate steps to get there.

Responsibilities:

  5. Disseminate your in-depth knowledge of software development tools, and embedded software development within the company.
  6. Handle multiple projects and oversee the deliverables using appropriate project management methodologies.
  7. Establish metrics and processes for monitoring tooling health, and allowing for continuous improvements.
  8. Proactively resolve any issues encountered with existing applications.
  9. Work with multiple stakeholders from different locations (EMEA, US East and West) that includes flexing work hours based on time zones.

Experience:

  1. 10+ years of embedded software development experience in C, with the ability to understand differences between various C versions, standard library implementations, and GCC, IAR and armclang compiler flags commonly used in embedded systems.
  2. Experience effectively engaging with and contributing to open source projects.
  3. Significant experience with GDB, GCC and GNU binutils, including the ability to build them from source. LLVM and Clang would be a strong plus. Must be comfortable patching and building these types of projects from source.
  4. Significant experience with cmake, make, ninja and other build systems.
  5. Experience with Static Analysis tools.
  6. Ability to meaningfully interact with UI/UX designers on application design.
  7. Strong fundamentals in data structures and algorithms.
  8. Excellent written and communication skills in English.
  9. Good understanding of testing methodologies like unit testing, functional testing, performance testing and Integration testing.
  10. Good understanding on system monitoring, observability, metrics and logging.
  11. Familiarity with best practices for the full software development process.
  12. Demonstrated extensive experience with task and defect tracking tools (Jira, etc.).
  13. Very strong grasp of version control systems – Git, Github, etc.
  14. Willingness to step outside you comfort zone and cross technical boundaries between embedded, desktop, mobile and web/cloud.
  15. Detail and quality oriented. Customers expect technical excellence from us, and this extends from chip design all the way up to the tooling we provide them.

Advantageous Skills:

  1. Experience with Zephyr RTOS.
  2. Experience using IAR and/or armclang.
  3. Knowledge of Bluetooth Low Energy at the Host and/or Controller level.
