Embedded Systems Engineer

Hamilton, ON · Canada Full Time Hardware team

You will develop and maintain the low-level systems that act as the nervous system of ROZOR robots, firmware, drivers, real-time control logic, and safety-critical embedded software.

Responsibilities

• Develop firmware for microcontrollers (ARM, STM32, ESP32, etc.).
• Create drivers for sensors, motors, actuators, encoders, and power systems.
• Implement real-time communication protocols (CAN, UART, SPI, I²C, Ethernet).
• Design safety mechanisms, watchdog systems, and hardware-level failsafes.
• Optimize embedded software for performance and reliability.
• Integrate embedded components with ROS / ROS 2 and autonomy systems.
• Conduct hardware bring-up and debugging with oscilloscopes.
• Collaborate across hardware, autonomy, and QA teams.
• Support manufacturing and field deployment improvements.

What you bring

• Bachelor's/Master's degree in Embedded Systems, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
• 2+ years embedded firmware experience.
• Strong proficiency in C / C++ for embedded targets.
• Hands-on with microcontrollers and real-time operating systems.
• Comfort reading schematics and using oscilloscopes / logic analyzers.
• Experience with sensor and motor driver development.
• Familiarity with ROS / ROS 2 integration is a plus.
