LEAD FIRMWARE ENGINEER
MUST HAVES -
- Comfortable working in agile and evolving environments. 12+ years as a Firmware Engineer, currently Technical Manager / System Architect / Technical Lead, managing 4–6 engineers — but still hands-on (writes code, does design/code reviews).
- Strong embedded C, real-time firmware (RTOS or bare-metal).
- Embedded hardware exposure: MCU/SoC design, analog/digital circuits (70% FW / 30% HW split is fine).
- PCB layout review + EMC/EMI debugging experience.
- Hands-on lab skills: scope, logic analyzer, JTAG/SWD.
- Bootloader and firmware update experience.
- Industrial communication protocol — EtherCAT, CAN, PROFINET, or IO-Link.
- Domain: servo drives, VFDs, motion control, or power electronics (mandatory).
- Customer-facing experience with EU/US stakeholders.
Experience with industrial electronics, preferably:
- Servo drives
- Frequency inverters
- Motion or power electronics products.
Mandatory Technical Skills
- Embedded Hardware
