WHAT YOU’LL NEED:

We’re seeking passionate technologists who thrive on pushing the boundaries, solving complex challenges, and driving transformative solutions.
At Ambiq, you’ll collaborate with a dynamic team that values relentless innovation, customer-centric thinking, and continuous learning. If you’re a self-motivated, creative problem-solver eager to push technological limits and make a meaningful impact in energy efficiency, this is your opportunity to grow, excel, and turn groundbreaking ideas into reality.

Most importantly, the successful candidate will be able to live the Ambiq Shared Values:

• Innovate: We tenaciously find ways to break down the barriers to possible solutions
• Collaborate: We proactively communicate and encourage each other to be better.
• Focus: We keep the voice of the customer at the center of everything we do.
• Learn: We strive for continuous improvement and are always curious.
• Achieve: We execute on quality and follow through on our commitments.

Requirements:

• A Bachelor’s of Science or Master’s in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or Computer Science.
• 12+ years of experience developing embedded software for real-time environments (bare metal and RTOS).
• Experienced in code development in C/C++ and assembly language for embedded targets using ARM Cortex-M processors.
• Experience in writing software requirements specifications with an eye towards customer use cases, derived software requirements, and testability on FPGA-based emulation platforms, as well as full system reference designs.
• Experience with asymmetric multicore systems and control/data plane interaction, including inter-processor communication via remote processor messaging frameworks (e.g., OpenAMP or RPMsg).
• Experience with general purpose data movement engines, memory management units, memory protection, L1/L2 caches, shared memories, and dual-port memories.
• Experience in power optimization for embedded systems is desirable. Familiarity with voltage and frequency scaling, clock gating, sleep/wake cycles, and low-power modes of processors and peripherals.
• Familiarity with at least one MCU IDE on Windows from ARM/Keil, IAR, Eclipse, or others.
• Familiarity with Trust Zone for M-Class microcontrollers and/or Trusted Firmware for microcontrollers is preferred.
• Experience with Graphics, Display and Audio/Video processing in embedded systems preferred.
• The candidate must be able to independently manage assigned tasks, prioritize workload, and meet deadlines with minimal supervision. Proactive problem-solving skills and the ability to seek clarification when needed are essential

• Requirements analysis based on disparate and preliminary information from SoC hardware architecture team, product marketing, other software architects, and software development teams resulting in contributions to a software requirements specification for the device. This should include any software prototyping required to refine the architectural understanding and requirements.
• Working closely with our field, product marketing, and system test teams to understand our Alpha customer use cases and their impact on requirements and testability.
• Engaging during the software implementation and test phases to review designs, test plans, code, and test case results as a SME for certain aspects of the SoC software architecture.
• Support performance and power optimization of the areas for which you are responsible.
• Define and enforce architectural standards, guidelines, and best practices.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to align architectural decisions with overall business objectives.
• Diagnose and resolve complex technical issues and recommend trade-offs between software and hardware implementations.
• Collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams to achieve project goals.
• Mentor and guide junior team members.
