Senior Firmware Engineer I

Trách nhiệm chính

• Lead the technical execution of firmware projects for current and next-generation Axon devices, setting quality standards and guiding peers.
• Own full projects or major portions of multi-engineer projects end-to-end, from design through validation and production support.
• Develop firmware for Embedded Linux or Embedded Android on SoCs and SoMs, and for microcontrollers and RTOS-based systems where required.
• Drive architecture and design decisions for connectivity technologies such as Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth/BLE, Sub‑GHz, and Cellular LTE/5G.
• Set direction for battery, power, and thermal‑management subsystems with a critical eye toward safety and reliability.
• Lead board bring‑up, hardware integration, and debugging efforts in close partnership with Electrical Engineering.
• Set testing strategy and maintain advanced unit, integration, and automated tests for scalability, resiliency, and safety‑critical behaviors.
• Manage cross‑team dependencies across Firmware, Embedded Product, Electrical Engineering, Manufacturing, Compliance, and external vendors.
• Author and review Software Design Reviews, Pre‑Mortems, and After Action Reviews for your projects.
• Lead incident resolution and drive improvements in operational readiness for systems in your scope.
• Conduct interviews (Engineering with AI and/or system design), primarily for L8/L9 candidates, producing clear, calibrated feedback.
• Mentor L7 engineers toward promotion readiness, and proactively share feedback, practices, and context with the team.
• Use agentic AI across design, implementation, testing, debugging, and documentation, holding results to architectural, performance, and maintainability standards.
• Coordinate multiple AI agents effectively while managing coordination overhead, cost, and reviewability; coach others on validation practices and pilot shared standards for AI‑assisted development.

Yêu cầu công việc

• B.S. in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
• 5++ years of real‑world industry firmware or embedded experience developing on IoT products.
• Strong programming ability in one or more of C, C++, Rust, Golang, or Python, with the judgment to guide language and tooling choices for a project.
• Extensive hands‑on experience owning firmware or embedded software projects end‑to‑end for IoT, consumer electronics, robotics, automotive, networking, or similar products.
• Strong experience with both kernel and user‑space Embedded Linux, including exposure to Yocto, OpenWRT, or other embedded distros for Board Support Packaging (BSP).
• Strong understanding of computer architecture, peripherals, operating systems, concurrency, and networking concepts, with the ability to make sound trade‑offs across these domains.
• Strong ability to read datasheets and schematics and independently debug issues that span hardware and software.
• Strong understanding of data structures, algorithms, and object‑oriented design patterns.
• Proven track record setting technical direction, coordinating cross‑team dependencies, and navigating ambiguity with minimal supervision.
• Experience mentoring engineers and contributing to interview processes.
• Working experience using agentic AI tools across design, implementation, testing, debugging, and documentation, holding output to architectural, performance, and maintainability standards.
• Experience coordinating multiple AI agents effectively while managing coordination overhead, cost, and reviewability.
• Track record of raising team AI effectiveness — coaching others on validation and piloting shared standards for AI‑assisted development.
