Original job description

Company Description Boston Engineering is where innovative ideas become real-world technologies. Headquartered in Waltham, Massachusetts, we've spent more than 30 years partnering with commercial and government clients to solve complex engineering challenges and bring breakthrough products to market. From advanced robotics and autonomous systems to medical devices, digital solutions, defense technologies, and industrial automation, our teams work on meaningful projects that push the boundaries of what's possible. Take a look at how Boston Engineering applies engineering expertise to the development of BIOSwimmer, an autonomous underwater robotic fish. ▶️ WATCH: How Reverse Engineering Propels BIOSwimmer – The Robotic Fish

Job Description

Boston Engineering is seeking an Embedded Software Engineer to develop software for robotics, autonomous systems, medical devices, defense technologies, and commercial products. This is a hands-on role focused on building new products and solving novel technical challenges. Much of our work starts at 0-to-1, giving engineers the opportunity to contribute from early prototypes and architecture through integration, testing, and a working product. As a product development company, our projects vary significantly in technology, scale, and application. We choose the right tools for the problem, and our engineers gain experience across different platforms and architectures rather than working within a single technology stack. The work is highly cross-disciplinary. You'll work alongside engineers from other disciplines, contribute to system-level decisions, work directly with custom hardware and prototypes, and solve problems that cross the boundaries between software, electronics, and the physical system. Our projects tackle challenges in areas such as autonomy, perception, SLAM, sensor fusion, and real-time control. The applications range from robotics and defense systems to medical devices and commercial products. For an engineer early in their career, this is an opportunity to build strong technical depth while gaining exposure to the broader engineering system. You'll write software, work directly with hardware, solve difficult problems, and see your work become part of products that operate in the real world. What You'll Work On

Develop embedded software and firmware in C and C++ for new and existing products.
Work with microcontrollers, embedded processors, RTOS-based systems, and embedded Linux platforms.
Integrate sensors, actuators, communication interfaces, and other hardware into embedded systems.
Build and debug interfaces including I2C, SPI, UART, CAN, Ethernet, GPIO, and similar protocols.
Use Python and other tools for testing, automation, system integration, and development support.
Bring up and debug software on custom hardware and early prototypes.
Investigate issues across software and hardware using debuggers, logs, bench equipment, and other engineering tools.
Implement software from system and software requirements while identifying edge cases, unclear behavior, and technical risks.
Write automated tests and support repeatable build, test, and integration workflows.
Participate in code reviews, technical discussions, design reviews, and project planning.
Collaborate across engineering disciplines throughout product development.
Document software designs, interfaces, implementation decisions, and test results.

Qualifications

BS in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Robotics, or a related field
3–5 years of professional embedded development experience
Experience using Git and standard version control workflows
Familiarity with build systems, dependency management, debugging tools, and modern software development practices
Proven C and C++ fundamentals
Experience with Python or another scripting language
Understanding of embedded systems and how software interacts with hardware
Knowledge of real-time software concepts, including tasks, interrupts, scheduling, synchronization, timing, and concurrency
Working knowledge of common embedded communication interfaces and protocols
Comfort working in Linux and command-line development environments
Proficiency with standard software development tools and workflows
Ability to read and interpret technical documentation, datasheets, software requirements, and interface specifications
Excellent problem-solving and debugging skills
Sound judgment when identifying edge cases, questioning assumptions, and raising technical concerns
Demonstrated capacity to learn new technologies and apply them to unfamiliar engineering problems
Strong written and verbal communication skills
Eligible to obtain and maintain a security clearance

Bonus Attributes

Experience with Docker, containerized development environments, CI/CD pipelines, or automated build and test workflows
Hands-on work with STM32, ARM-based MCUs/SoCs, ESP32, PIC32, or similar embedded platforms
Knowledge of Zephyr, FreeRTOS, or another RTOS
Familiarity with embedded Linux
Exposure to ROS2
Background in robotics, autonomous systems, UUVs, UAVs, or other uncrewed systems
Proficiency using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, multimeters, protocol analyzers, or other bench equipment
Ability to read schematics and support board bring-up
Development of device drivers or communication stacks
Knowledge of networking and network debugging
Exposure to navigation, localization, SLAM, perception, controls, or sensor fusion
Experience with CI/CD, automated testing, or hardware-in-the-loop testing for embedded systems
Personal, academic, or professional projects involving embedded systems, electronics, robots, or other technical projects
Familiarity with safety-critical, mission-critical, or regulated product development
