Job Description

This team is looking for an Electrical Engineer with firmware experience to join a team that is focused on optics and display research products. As an Electrical Engineer, you will help create the next generation of Augmented Reality devices! We are looking for a motivated engineer that can work collaboratively with internal design teams and external production partners to deliver solutions for the design, assembly, and characterization of displays and related technology.



Day-to-day:

* Write the basic firmware (FW) template for the target microcontroller or processor.

* Modify the firmware to accommodate specific features or functionalities required by the system or prototype. This may involve adding drivers, communication protocols (such as I2C, SPI, UART), and handling interrupts.

* Develop the necessary FPGA configuration files. Load the firmware onto the FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) connected to the display panel.

* Collaborate with other teams (hardware, mechanical, and software) to bring up the entire system. Ensure that the firmware interacts correctly with other components (sensors, actuators, etc.)

Automate the programming process if possible. Create scripts or tools to streamline firmware updates during production or testing.

We are a company committed to creating diverse and inclusive environments where people can bring their full, authentic selves to work every day. We are an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer that believes everyone matters. Qualified candidates will receive consideration for employment regardless of their race, color, ethnicity, religion, sex (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, marital status, national origin, ancestry, genetic factors, age, disability, protected veteran status, military or uniformed service member status, or any other status or characteristic protected by applicable laws, regulations, and ordinances.
