As a Team Lead Embedded Software, you will lead and grow a team working across ARM Linux systems, bare-metal firmware and Python-based tooling. Your team owns software close to the hardware, from microcontrollers responsible for power management, sensor synchronization, and I/O through to Linux-based systems, low level kernel drivers, and tooling used by Electrical Engineering and Production. You will combine people leadership with strong technical ownership. Working closely with Electrical Engineering, System Software, Product, Production, Quality, and Support, you will help define technical direction, establish priorities, and make clear trade-offs between scope, quality, and timelines. You will remain close enough to the technology to review architecture and designs, unblock complex problems, and contribute during critical phases such as new-platform bring-up. This is a hybrid role, with an expectation of three days onsite each week. ### HOW YOU WILL MAKE AN IMPACT Lead and develop the Embedded Software team, supporting engineers through regular feedback, growth planning, performance management, hiring, and onboarding Own the team's technical direction and architecture across ARM Linux systems, kernel drivers, bare-metal and RTOS firmware and Python-based engineering and production tooling Shape the team roadmap and priorities together with Electrical Engineering, System Software, Product, Production, Quality, and Support, making technical and delivery trade-offs transparent Drive strong embedded software engineering practices, including architecture reviews, automated testing, hardware-in-the-loop setups, build systems, CI/CD, firmware packaging, and deployment Guide the team through complex technical challenges, reviewing designs and code, removing blockers, and contributing directly where deep technical expertise is needed Improve the reliability and maintainability of embedded systems by reducing knowledge silos and single points of failure across firmware and tooling Build strong interfaces between Embedded Software and adjacent teams, translating product and system requirements into clear technical plans Support successful new hardware platform bring-up, ensuring software architecture, testing, and integration evolve alongside the hardware ### WHAT WILL HELP YOU SUCCEED IN THE ROLE Significant experience in embedded software engineering on real hardware, including substantial experience working closely with Electrical Engineering teams Strong technical expertise in embedded C and C++, including kernel and driver, bare-metal cortex M or RTOS environments, together with solid Linux fundamentals Hands-on experience with Linux-based embedded systems, including areas such as user-space or kernel-space drivers, cross-compilation, toolchains, device trees, or system bring-up Practical experience with Python for engineering tooling or test automation, alongside modern build, CI/CD, and automated testing practices Experience leading and developing engineers, either through formal people management or substantial technical leadership, with the ability to give clear feedback, set priorities, and support individual growth Strong architectural and cross-functional communication skills, with experience defining software architecture, deployment, and testing strategies and aligning teams around them ### Nice to Have Experience working with MIPI cameras and image sensors Experience with over-the-air firmware deployment or provisioning tools, such as Ansible, NIX Knowledge of high-speed hardware interfaces such as USB 3.x, MIPI CSI-2, MIPI DSI, HDMI, or Gigabit Ethernet Experience with hybrid SoC and FPGA architectures using high speed PCIe interfaces ### HOW WE WILL KNOW WE ARE A PERFECT MATCH Your recruiting partner for this role is Sylvie (she/her). You can expect to go through a screening call, and up to 3 rounds of interviews, where we would love to discover your passion and interests, introduce you to who we are and what drives us, and finally understand how we can potentially add value to each other's growth. --- Data: alder (https://alderhq.app).
