Embedded Systems Architect - C/C++ Programming

Embedded Systems Architect

We are seeking an accomplished Embedded Systems Architect to lead the architectural definition, design, and implementation of cutting-edge embedded solutions across our product portfolio.

This role requires deep technical expertise in embedded software and hardware, strong leadership capabilities, and a systems-level perspective.

The ideal candidate will guide teams toward scalable, secure, and performance-optimized embedded designs.

Key Responsibilities
• Define and evolve system architecture for embedded products across various domains.
• Lead requirement analysis, system-level design, and platform selection in collaboration with

cross-functional teams.
• Evaluate and recommend MCUs, SoCs, RTOS, toolchains, and communication stacks tailored

to project needs.
• Set standards for software architecture, coding practices, and system performance metrics.
• Oversee system integration, risk analysis, and design/architecture reviews.
• Drive compliance with industry regulations such as ISO 26262, IEC 61508, and MISRA C.
• Provide technical leadership and mentorship to junior and senior embedded developers.
• Investigate and adopt emerging embedded technologies and methodologies.
• Ensure embedded solutions meet safety, security, and real-time Qualifications :
