About Job
Architect and implement robust embedded firmware using object-oriented and procedural languages for complex laboratory automation hardware incorporating optics, microfluidics, precision motion systems, and high-resolution imaging sensors.
Partner with a global, cross-functional team of hardware, mechanical, and software engineers located across APAC and US design hubs.
Drive the firmware engineering process entirely from initial proof-of-concept and prototype evaluation through to manufacturing transfer and final release.
Low-Level System Development: Write and maintain essential peripheral drivers, core software modules, and handle complex multi-subsystem firmware integration.
Maintain strict adherence to established coding standards, comprehensive documentation practices, and rigorous testing frameworks.
Skills and Requirements
Degree in Electronic/Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or an equivalent technical field.
Minimum at least 5 years of professional experience developing firmware for complex hardware instrumentation.
Core Systems Programming: C programming language and deep familiarity with RTOS environments, task scheduling, resource synchronization, and memory-constrained architectures.
Hardware Interfacing: Highly proficient in reading electrical schematics and datasheets, with hands-on experience interfacing with ARM microprocessors, converters (ADC/DAC), actuators (stepper/DC motors), and serial communication protocols (I2C, SPI, CAN, USB, Ethernet).
Modern Toolchain Proficiency: Daily experience utilizing the GNU development toolchain (gcc, gnumake), Git-based version control, Linux desktop environments, and modern AI coding assistants.
Security & Diagnostics: Practical knowledge of embedded cybersecurity implementations alongside experience using hardware-level debugging equipment (such as J-Link, Lauterbach, or equivalent hardware probes).
