FIRMWARE ENGINEER You'll architect and build the embedded systems that power the sensing, actuation, communication, and safety functions inside our robots. You'll define scalable firmware and system architectures while owning products from initial board bring-up through system integration, validation, manufacturing ramp, and large-scale production. WHAT YOU’LL DO - Develop real-time firmware for robotic actuators, sensors, communications, and power systems. - Own firmware from custom board bring-up through validation, production ramp, and sustained manufacturing. - Build drivers and interfaces for ADCs, timers, PWM, DMA, SPI, I²C, UART, CAN, and other peripherals. - Integrate encoders, force sensors, IMUs, current sensors, cameras, and other feedback devices. - Collaborate with electrical, mechanical, controls, ML, test…
