Collaborate with firmware developers to identify root causes and implement lasting fixes. Advanced Debugging & Analysis Conduct regression and performance tests for low-level system components. Use diagnostic tools, JTAG debuggers, and emulators to validate microcontroller behavior. Maintain and evolve automated testing pipelines using scripting tools and continuous integration (CI) frameworks. Contribute to the documentation of testing strategies, results, and benchmarks. Tools & Technologies Testing Environments & Frameworks Embedded Linux and RTOS environments Oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and protocol sniffers Jenkins, GitLab CI, or CircleCI for continuous integration Languages & Protocols Python, Bash, and C-based scripting for test automation Protocol validation for UART, SPI, I2C, and CAN buses Platforms like STM32, NXP, Raspberry Pi, and TI processors Work Environment This is a fully remote position designed for modern innovators. Whether you're testing device firmware from your balcony or brainstorming with engineers in a virtual lab, you'll enjoy a flexible schedule and meaningful autonomy. All you need is a high-speed connection, a curious mind, and a passion for precision. Our distributed model prioritizes work-life balance while keeping you connected to a global network of specialists. Candidate Qualifications Required Skills & Experience 3+ years in embedded systems testing or firmware QA. Proven experience with microcontroller environments and board-level debugging. Familiarity with real-time systems, low-latency constraints, and hardware protocols. Preferred Traits Comfortable using both manual and automated test methods. Solid understanding of embedded system architecture and memory constraints. Ability to think critically under pressure and document clearly. Bonus points for contributions to open-source firmware testing tools or public projects. Career Growth & Development Professional Advancement Working with us is a launchpad. As you sharpen your skills in embedded quality assurance, you'll also gain visibility into product design, hardware engineering, and system architecture. Many testers here evolve into firmware developers, automation architects, or technical leads. Learning Support We support your journey with access to learning resources, mentoring sessions, and certification stipends. Compensation & Benefits Financial Package Your expertise deserves recognition. This role offers an annual salary of $102,146, plus performance incentives and remote work allowances. Perks Tailored to You We also offer personalized perks tailored to your productivity style—whether it’s upgraded equipment, ergonomic tools, or wellness subscriptions. Why Join Us?
