While prior experience is important, we value curiosity, practical engineering ability, and a commitment to building robust systems.

  • Write and maintain embedded software in Python and C for our Linux-based scanner systems
  • Build and deploy software and operating system components to embedded devices
  • Write low-level firmware in C for STM32 microcontrollers, including motor and sensor interfaces
  • Prototype and integrate new hardware peripherals using your driver development and debugging skills
  • Support field deployments and help resolve scanner performance issues through test-driven problem solving
About You:
  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or similar
  • 12 years of experience in embedded systems, firmware, or systems software (including internships)
  • Proficiency in Python and C
  • Strong grasp of software engineering fundamentals (version control, testing, modular design, PR reviews)
