We're launching our U.S. operations from the ground up — and this is a rare opportunity to join at the very beginning and help shape the company from day one.\nAt KRUSH Tech, we combine the agility of a startup with the ambition to tackle some of the industry's most demanding engineering challenges. Our teams work across disciplines—including RF, embedded systems, electronics, mechanical engineering, software, manufacturing, and supply chain—to transform innovative ideas into reliable, production-ready solutions. We are building a next-generation, vertically integrated aerospace organization focused on advanced uncrewed aircraft systems (UAS), autonomy, sensing technologies, and scalable manufacturing — for the U.S. market and strategic partners.\nAs the Lead Embedded Systems Engineer, you will provide technical leadership for the architecture, design, development, integration, and validation of embedded systems that power our UAV platforms. You will define firmware architecture, guide hardware-software co-design, and lead cross-functional engineering efforts from concept through production.\nWorking closely with electrical, systems, autonomy, RF, and manufacturing engineering teams, you will ensure embedded platforms are reliable, scalable, and optimized for high-performance aerospace applications. This role combines hands-on engineering with technical leadership and is ideal for an experienced embedded engineer who enjoys solving complex multidisciplinary challenges while mentoring engineering teams.\nJob Responsibilities\nLead the architecture, design, and development of embedded systems and firmware for advanced UAV platforms.\nDefine embedded software architectures, technical standards, and development best practices to ensure scalable, maintainable, and reliable products.\nCollaborate with hardware engineering teams on MCU selection, hardware-software partitioning, system optimization, and design reviews.\nLead firmware integration, system validation, and debugging across hardware, software, communications, and manufacturing environments.\nInvestigate and resolve complex cross-functional technical issues through systematic root cause analysis and corrective actions.\nCoordinate technical activities across firmware, hardware, systems integration, test, validation, and manufacturing teams.\nSupport product lifecycle activities, including prototype development, New Product Introduction (NPI), production readiness, and manufacturing handoff.\nMentor embedded engineers, provide technical leadership, manage engineering risks, and contribute to technology strategy and long-term product roadmaps.\n\nRequirements\n\nBachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related engineering discipline.\n6+ years of experience designing and developing embedded systems for complex electronic products.\nExperience leading embedded software development through the complete product lifecycle from prototype to production as well as demonstrated technical leadership within multidisciplinary engineering teams.\nStrong expertise in embedded systems architecture and firmware development.\nExperience designing real-time embedded systems using RTOS (FreeRTOS or equivalent).\nProficiency in low-level embedded software, device drivers, hardware abstraction layers (HAL), and MCU peripherals.\nExperience with hardware-software co-design, MCU selection, and embedded system optimization.\nStrong debugging and troubleshooting skills across embedded hardware and firmware.\nExperience with system integration, validation, verification, and root cause analysis.\nKnowledge of engineering development processes, product lifecycle management, and New Product Introduction (NPI).\n\nBenefits\n\nHealth Care Plan\nRetirement Plan\nPaid Time Off\nFamily Leave\nFree Food & Snacks","company":"Krush Tech","rawCompany":"krush tech","city":"Austin","state":"TX","isRemote":false,"isActive":false,"createdAt":"2026-08-05T00:14:27.262Z","occupations":[{"code":"17-2072.00","title":"Electronics Engineers, Except Computer","slug":"electronics-engineers-except-computer"},{"code":"17-2199.00","title":"Engineers, All Other","slug":"engineers-all-other"},{"code":"11-9041.00","title":"Architectural and Engineering Managers","slug":"architectural-and-engineering-managers"}],"industries":[{"code":"334511","title":"Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing","slug":"search-detection-navigation-guidance-aeronautical-and-nautical-system-and-instrument-manufacturing"},{"code":"336411","title":"Aircraft Manufacturing","slug":"aircraft-manufacturing"},{"code":"334519","title":"Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing","slug":"other-measuring-and-controlling-device-manufacturing"}],"jobPosting":{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"JobPosting","title":"Lead Embedded Systems Engineer","description":"KRUSH Tech is a new technology company building advanced hardware solutions for defense, aerospace, communications, and autonomous systems.
