Lead Firmware Engineer (Embedded firmware development using C/C++)
RoleLead Firmware Engineer (Embedded firmware development using C/C++).OverviewAs a Lead Firmware Engineer, you will own critical firmware components end-to-end, from requirements through verification, for embedded medical device systems. You will lead complex technical problem-solving, influence architecture and design decisions, and mentor junior engineers while ensuring the delivery of high-quality, safe, and reliable embedded software in a regulated environment.ResponsibilitiesDesign, develop, and verify complex embedded firmware modules in C/C++Own firmware components from requirements definition to final verificationLead root-cause analysis for complex technical issues and drive robust solutionsContribute to firmware and system architecture discussions, making sound design tradeoffsImprove firmware quality through test automation, tooling, coding standards, and documentationMentor and guide Level-1 and Level-2 engineers via design and code reviewsWork closely with Systems, Electrical, Mechanical, and QA teams for system-level integration and verificationEnsure compliance with quality and regulatory expectations throughout the development lifecycleExperience10+ YearsLocationNot specifiedEducational QualificationsEngineering Degree – BE/ME/BTech/MTech/BSc/MSc.Technical certification in multiple technologies is desirable.SkillsMandatory skills10+ years of hands-on embedded firmware development experienceStrong expertise in RTOS, concurrency, interrupts, timers, and state machinesAdvanced embedded debugging, root-cause analysis, and performance optimizationExperience with device drivers, peripherals, communication stacks, and board/device bring-upProven ownership of firmware end-to-end: requirements, design, implementation, testing, and verificationStrong understanding of software architecture and design tradeoffsExperience with Git, code reviews, and Agile development practicesAbility to translate system requirements into technical designs and test strategiesGood-to-Have SkillsExperience in regulated product development (medical devices strongly preferred)Knowledge of firmware security concepts (secure boot, secure updates, device hardening)Demonstrated technical leadership and mentoring capabilityStrong ownership, accountability, and cross-functional collaboration skillsJ-18808-Ljbffr
