About the Role

Embedded Engineer

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and optimize

  embedded firmware

  for medical devices in compliance with IEC 62304 and other relevant standards.
• Develop and maintain

  RTOS-based applications

  ensuring deterministic, real-time performance.
• Work with cross-functional teams (hardware, software, quality, regulatory) to ensure seamless integration of embedded systems.
  
• Develop drivers, middleware, and applications for microcontrollers (ARM, PIC, STM32, etc.).
  
• Implement

  communication protocols

  (UART, I2C, SPI, CAN, BLE, Wi-Fi, etc.) for device connectivity and IoHT/IoT applications.
• Ensure system reliability,

  low-power optimization

  , and safety-critical performance.
• Participate in

  design reviews, risk analysis, and failure mode analysis (FMEA)

  .
• Write and maintain

  documentation

  for software design, test protocols, and regulatory submissions.
• Collaborate in

  verification & validation (V&V)

  testing to meet FDA, CE, and ISO 13485 requirements.
• Stay updated with emerging technologies in

  medical electronics, RTOS, and embedded systems

  .

Requirements

• Bachelors/Master’s degree

  in Electronics, Computer Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, or related field.
• 2+ years of experience in

  embedded firmware development

  (preferably in the medical device or regulated industry).
• Strong knowledge of

  C/C++ programming

  ,

  RTOS (FreeRTOS, Zephyr, ThreadX, etc.)

  , and embedded Linux.
• Experience with

  safety-critical design

  , fault-tolerant systems, and hardware/software integration.
• Familiarity with

  medical device standards

  : IEC 62304 (software lifecycle), ISO 13485 (QMS), ISO 14971 (risk management).
• Proficiency in using

  debugging tools, oscilloscopes, JTAG, logic analyzers

  , etc.
• Knowledge of

  wireless medical communication standards

  (Bluetooth Low Energy, Wi-Fi, IoT protocols) is a plus.
• Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and ability to work in a regulated environment.
  

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in

  IoHT (Internet of Health Things)

  or connected health devices.
• Understanding of

  cybersecurity

  in medical devices (FDA cybersecurity guidelines, IEC 81001-5-1).
• Hands-on experience with

  cloud-connected devices

  or AI-driven embedded solutions.
