RTOS SW Engineer

About the role • We are seeking an RTOS Software Engineer to design and implement the real-time firmware that gives our sensing and control systems their deterministic behavior. You will own scheduling, drivers, and middleware in a hard real-time environment.What you'll do • Design, implement, and optimize real-time firmware on an RTOS • Develop task scheduling, IPC, synchronization, and deterministic real-time behavior • Implement device drivers and middleware within the RTOS environment • Tune for latency, jitter, and CPU/memory footprint • Port and configure the RTOS for new SoCs and boards • Debug real-time and concurrency issues (race conditions, priority inversion) • Collaborate with platform, DSP, and application teamsRequired Qualifications • BS or MS in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or Computer Science • 5+ years embedded firmware development in C on RTOS-based systems • Deep understanding of real-time scheduling, concurrency, and synchronization • Experience with at least one RTOS (FreeRTOS, Zephyr, ThreadX, or QNX) and Linux kernel driver development • Strong debugging skills with JTAG/SWD, trace, and lab instruments • Understanding of microcontroller/SoC architecture (memory, interrupts, DMA)Preferred Qualifications • ARM Cortex-M/R experience • Low-latency, high-rate sensor data pipelines • Safety-critical or functional-safety (ISO 26262) firmware experience • Multi-core AMP/SMP RTOS configurations • Robotics or autonomous systems backgroundBenefits (subject to location and local regulations) • Competitive salary and equity • Flexible vacation and time-off policy • Collaborative, fast-paced, and inclusive work environment • Opportunity to work on cutting-edge technologies with a highly cross-functional team
