Job description
As a Firmware Engineer , you will develop and maintain embedded firmware for respiratory therapy devices. You will work within an established architecture, implement features, perform bug fixes, and contribute to verification and technical documentation. This role is well suited for an engineer with strong programming fundamentals, collaborative communication skills, and a drive for continuous improvement and innovation.
Key Responsibilities
Implement embedded firmware features in C and C++ for MCU‑based, real‑time systems under guidance of senior engineers
Debug and resolve issues using standard tools (JTAG/SWD, logs, unit tests), including root‑cause analysis and corrective actions
Write maintainable, well‑tested code and participate in peer code reviews to uphold quality standards
Contribute to verification activities such as unit testing, integration testing, and test automation
Support requirements‑to‑implementation traceability and contribute to documentation for regulated development
Collaborate cross‑functionally with systems, electrical, mechanical, and quality teams
Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field, or equivalent practical experience
3+ years of embedded firmware development experience in a team‑based Agile environment
Strong fundamentals in C and C++, including memory management, concurrency, debugging, and use of modern C++ features (RAII, STL, templates, lambdas)
Familiarity with real‑time embedded concepts (interrupts, timers, peripherals, state machines) and Git
Demonstrated humility, curiosity, accountability, and collaborative mindset
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with C, C++, Python, RTOS, low‑power design, and device communications (UART, I2C, SPI, BLE)
Exposure to modern development practices such as design controls, verification/validation, and coding standards
Interest in research, prototyping, and innovation
Experience with medical device software development (IEC 62304) is a plus
