Embedded_Software_Architect(Gateway)_ECT

Looking for an Embedded Software Architect to define and drive scalable, high-quality embedded software architecture. This role requires strong expertise in C/C++ and embedded systems, with working knowledge of connectivity technologies to support connected product development.

Tasks / Responsibilities:

• Translate business and system requirements into technical architecture.

• Define end-to-end embedded software architecture (drivers, middleware, application layers).

• Design scalable solutions across MCU/SoC platforms, RTOS, and hardware abstraction layers.

• Define communication interfaces and integration strategies across subsystems.

• Architect systems for high performance, low latency, and efficient resource usage.

• Ensure compliance with safety, regulatory, and quality requirements

• Design and support integration of connectivity modules (RF, Wi Fi) into embedded systems.

• Assess emerging technologies (AI/ML, GenAI, data platforms) with a focus on improving embedded platform engineering and automation.

• Lead technical discussions and architecture / design reviews.

• Drive innovative initiatives and proof-of-concepts (POCs).

• Evaluate emerging tools, frameworks, and connectivity solutions.

• Establish and improve CI/CD pipelines for embedded systems.

• Mentor development teams on architecture, best practices, and technical direction

• Support teams in debugging complex system-level issues and root cause analysis
  Required Skills & Experience
