• Develop and maintain embedded firmware drivers for proprietary silicon.
• Build and support automated pre-silicon and silicon verification environments for firmware testing.
• Contribute to chip bring-up, debugging, regression testing and performance analysis.
• Create and run validation test suites to verify electrical performance and functionality.
• Work closely with silicon, electronics and control engineers throughout development.

Skills, Experience & Qualifications - Senior Embedded Software Engineer - Device Driver

Essential:

• Degree in Computer Science, Electronic Engineering, or related discipline.
• Strong experience in real-time embedded firmware development.
• Commercial experience in C programming for device drivers / embedded systems.
• Commercial Python programming experience.
• Experience developing cross-platform embedded code.
• Familiar with defect tracking, code reviews and producing clear technical documentation.

Desirable (not essential): - Senior Embedded Software Engineer - Device Driver

• Experience with pytest, build scripts, Jenkins CI/CD and automated test frameworks.
