Embedded Software Engineer

Embedded Software Engineer (Wearable Robotics)$150,000 - $200,000 + Stock Options + Annual Bonus + Health Benefits + 401(k) + PTOOn-Site in Austin, TX Are you looking to take real ownership of product firmware on a breakthrough consumer robotics product where your work directly impacts what ships? On offer is the chance to join a small, close-knit engineering team building next-generation wearable robotics, working hands-on at the intersection of embedded software, hardware integration, and human motion in a fast-paced environment with genuine autonomy and technical responsibility. This well-backed early-stage business is on a mission to augment human capability and make the world more walkable. Due to continued development and the need to accelerate product delivery, they are now looking to add to their Embedded Systems team in Austin. In this role, you’ll design, develop and maintain embedded software including RTOS-based system software, bootloaders, and Built-In Self-Test (BIST). You’ll lead firmware architecture, integrate with motor controllers/sensors and communication interfaces (SPI, UART, CAN, I2C, Ethernet), and build system-level test frameworks, CI/CD and production-line test software. This role would suit an embedded engineer with strong RTOS fundamentals and hands-on microcontroller experience (ARM Cortex-M / ESP32), looking for high-impact technical ownership, deeper system-level responsibility, and the chance to help shape a flagship robotics product.
