We are seeking a high-caliber Firmware Lead to join our Engineering team at Gradera. In this role, you will be the technical anchor for the firmware squad, responsible for translating high-level architectural visions into robust, executable low-level designs (LLD). You will lead the design and development of firmware solutions on NXP-based hardware platforms, ensuring seamless real-time data acquisition and integration with cloud-based Machine Learning (ML) platforms. We are looking for a seasoned expert who can work independently without any supervision, taking full ownership of the firmware lifecycle from hardware abstraction to cloud-edge synchronization.

Our Core Tech Stack

Embedded & OS

• NXP SoCs/MCUs: i.MX, LPC, and Kinetis series.
• Yocto Project: Custom layers, recipes, BitBake, and kernel configuration for Linux.
• RTOS Platforms: Deterministic performance, task scheduling, and interrupt handling.

Development & Integration

• Languages: Mandatory proficiency in C/C++ and C# (.NET on embedded targets/IoT).
• Communication: MQTT, WebSockets, CAN, UART, SPI, and I2C.
• Cloud & ML: Azure IoT Hub, AWS IoT Core, and data streaming via Kafka or Kinesis.

Infrastructure & Security

• Security: Secure boot, encryption, and device authentication.
• DevOps: Containerization (Docker) and CI/CD for firmware.

Key Responsibilities

• Architectural Ownership: Convert high-level blueprints into detailed technical designs for NXP-based systems, ensuring optimal performance across hardware and software layers.
• Autonomous Execution: Lead the end-to-end development of firmware modules, making critical technical decisions and resolving complex blockers without supervision.
• ML Pipeline Leadership: Collaborate with Data Engineering and ML teams to architect streaming and batch ingestion pipelines, ensuring data is correctly structured for ML training.
• Cloud-Edge Synchronization: Design secure and reliable transmission protocols for device-to-cloud communication, focusing on edge-to-cloud integration.
• Standards Enforcement: Act as the guardian of engineering excellence, implementing security best practices (secure boot, TLS) and ensuring high code quality.
• Technical Mentoring: Act as a technical beacon for the squad, conducting rigorous code reviews and mentoring senior engineers in Yocto Linux and RTOS concepts.
• Strategic Troubleshooting: Lead the debugging of critical firmware issues across hardware and software layers, including OTA update implementations.

Preferred Qualifications

• 8 to 10 years of professional experience in embedded firmware development.
• Proven ability to work independently and lead technical squads in a fast-paced environment.
• Expert-level mastery of the Yocto Project and RTOS constraints.
• Deep proficiency in C/C++ and C# for embedded systems.
• Demonstrated track record of delivering low-level designs for edge-to-cloud ML systems.

Highly Desirable

• Industry Experience: Exposure to industrial domains such as Manufacturing, Logistics, or Transportation is highly regarded.
• Experience with Edge AI / TinyML and industrial protocols (Modbus, OPC-UA).
• Knowledge of Cybersecurity standards for secure device provisioning.
