Requirements:

• A Bachelor’s of Science or Master’s in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or Computer Science.
• 10+ 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.
• Understanding of SoC (System on Chip) architecture, bus systems, and memory hierarchy. Experience with general-purpose data movement engines, memory management units, memory protection, L1/L2 caches, inter-processor communications, shared memories, and dual-port memories.
• Experience in power optimization for embedded systems. Expertise in voltage and frequency scaling, clock gating, and sleep/wake cycles. Familiarity with low-power modes of processors and peripherals.
• Experience with profiling and analyzing power consumption at software and hardware interaction layers.
• Hands-on experience with tools like oscilloscopes, power analyzers, and logic analyzers.
• Familiarity with software power modeling tools and simulators.
• Experience in writing functional allocation and software requirements specifications with an eye towards customer use cases and testability.
• Knowledge of the power requirements of wireless protocols (BLE, WiFi, 802.15.4) is a plus.
• Familiarity with at least one MCU IDE on Windows from ARM/Keil, IAR, Eclipse, or others.
• 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

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Requirements analysis and tracking based on disparate and preliminary information from SoC hardware architecture team, product marketing, other software architects, and software development teams.
• Software development, power modeling, power profiling and optimization of the AmbiqSuite SDK under various conditions in consultation with other teams. Own the performance and power optimization of the SoC from a software point of view.
• Working closely with our field, product marketing, validation and system test teams to understand our Alpha customer use cases and their impact on requirements, testability and actual implementation.
• Engaging during the software implementation and test phases to review designs, test plans, code, and test case results as a Subject Matter Expert for power management aspects of the SoC software architecture.
• 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.
