Full job description

As an embedded software engineer at Paradromics, you will work in tandem with neuroengineers and electronic designers to realize low-latency, high-fidelity brain machine implants. You'll own the firmware that sits between neural hardware and downstream inference, with a focus on real-time performance, power efficiency, and the reliability standards that come with an implantable medical device. Responsibilities

  • Contribute to multi-component embedded software, with an eye to improving reliability and latency.
  • Write performant and understandable Rust.
  • Participate in code reviews, design discussions, and work prioritization.
  • Develop and maintain automated tests, including unit tests, integration tests, and hardware-in-the-loop tests.
  • Profile and optimize firmware for memory usage, power consumption, and real-time performance.
  • Write and maintain technical documentation, including architecture decisions, API references, and troubleshooting guides.

Required qualifications

  • Proficiency in C++, Go, or Rust.

  • Familiarity with embedded systems, including: • handling tradeoffs between complexity and cost,

  • Working within power and memory constraints,

  • debugging live systems with JTAG or serial,

  • interfacing with engineers at other levels of the stack,

  • Experience with build tools like {c,}make.

  • Experience building low level software running in Linux.

Preferred qualifications

  • Experience interpreting schematics and datasheets.
  • Experience building software under an RTOS, or bare metal.
  • Experience building software with Yocto and/or Buildroot.
  • Understanding of OTA updates and/or secure boot.
  • Experience working on projects involving quality management systems, such as medical device development, aviation, finance, defense.
