Are you an embedded systems expert looking for a challenge at the nexus of mobility, IoT, AI, and data science that will have a positive impact on people around the world? CMT’s IoT team wants to speak with you.

We are looking for an embedded software engineer to join the IoT group working on CMT’s line of IoT sensors As a Principal Embedded Software Engineer you will be working on range of engineering challenges, including BLE, WiFi and LTE connectivity, GNSS systems, accelerometers, impact sensing, video acquisition, audio, computer vision, machine learning, real-time communication, security and over-the-air firmware upgrades.

Responsibilities:

• Working cross functionally with colleagues in the hardware, firmware, and cloud groups as we build new features and new products together
• Participate in the entire design process as our software group negotiates with product managers and hardware engineers to find the sweet spot between what’s technically feasible and what our customers want
• Provide guidance on software architecture
• Writing code and deploying tests
• Mentoring more junior engineers
• Measuring key metrics such as LTE data usage
• Helping to keep the codebase healthy in the face of increasing complexity
• Complete any additional tasks as they arise

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent years of experience and/or certification

• IoT domain experience
• Knowledge of networking, messaging protocols, and end-to-end encryption
• Experience with low-power design and power budget management
• Experience building and running tests in CI environments, including running tests automatically on real hardware
• Experience instrumenting systems for performance measurement: e.g., are any of these interrupt or event handlers too slow?

Compensation and Benefits:

• Fair and competitive salary based on skills and experience
• Equity in the form of Restricted Stock Units (RSUs)
• Medical, Dental, Vision and Life Insurance, matching 401k, short-term & long-term disability and parental leave
