Top Embedded Software Engineer Jobs in NYC, NY

Develop, integrate, and test high-quality embedded C/C++ avionics software for X-BAT UAVs, interfacing with sensors, firmware, autonomy systems, and GCS; design CI/HIL test systems, produce documentation, and collaborate across cross-functional teams.

The Embedded Software Engineer will analyze and develop embedded software systems, provide customer support, and apply software engineering and cybersecurity methods.

Design, build, and scale embedded connectivity and security for distributed energy devices. Implement networking (Ethernet/Wi‑Fi/Thread/Zigbee/BLE), secure provisioning, OTA firmware pipelines, telemetry, and diagnostics. Support testing, certification, manufacturing validation, and cross-functional collaboration from prototype to deployment.

Own and harden the on-premise edge computing platform for Brightcore EDGE, including hardware selection, Linux OS provisioning, security hardening, local data logging, time-series storage, telemetry pipelines, and BMS integration (BACnet/Modbus). Rapidly prototype, document deployment standards, support field commissioning, and collaborate with engineering, HVAC, and IT/OT security teams.

Develop and maintain PX4 autopilot firmware for UAVs, integrating sensors and payloads, and managing testing environments. Collaborate on flight operations and system integration.

As an Embedded Software Engineer, you will design and implement software for unmanned aircraft systems, debug issues, collaborate with engineering teams, and maintain high software quality standards.

Design, develop, and optimize platform-level embedded software and reusable frameworks for telecom products (including 5G). Collaborate across systems teams, perform architecture and code reviews, support integrations with customers/partners, and mentor engineers while ensuring performance, scalability, and reliability on heterogeneous processors.

Design and implement high-performance, 3GPP-compliant 5G Core control- and user-plane functions on ARM-based embedded Linux. Develop in C/Go/Rust, use DPDK for packet processing, optimize latency/throughput, debug protocol and performance issues, and collaborate cross-functionally to integrate carrier-grade systems.

Optimize Ubuntu integration across latest IoT and server-class hardware, lead customer engagements, and work with open source communities in a remote, collaborative environment.

Serve as an embedded Linux expert on customer projects: design and refactor real-time architectures, develop Linux kernel drivers, debug low-level hardware/software issues, optimize kernel performance, collaborate with customers and internal teams, lead technical efforts, produce high-quality deliverables, and create technical proposals to support product lifecycle and certification.

Design and implement embedded firmware and low-level software for server BMCs and GPU/HPC platforms. Enhance OpenBMC, enable real-time telemetry of power/thermal sensors, debug low-level drivers and interfaces, validate hardware-firmware integration, and contribute to long-term firmware architecture for cluster reliability.

Develop and maintain embedded firmware and kernel/user-mode device drivers for Ethernet-based networking devices. Design, implement, test, and integrate drivers into a Linux and AUTOSAR communication stack, build SDK components, and create debug/test utilities and automated unit/system tests for safety-critical automotive applications.
