Staff Algorithm Embedded Software Engineer (Hybrid - Acton, MA or San Diego, CA)
About The Position
Join a team building the core intelligence that powers one of the world’s most advanced automated insulin delivery systems. As a Staff Algorithm Embedded (Firmware) Software Engineer, you will operate at the intersection of algorithms, embedded systems, real-time control, and safety-critical medical engineering—directly shaping life-altering technology used by millions of people with diabetes. You will own the transformation of next-generation insulin-dosing algorithms into highly optimized C implementations that run on constrained embedded medical devices. You will lead a technical team influencing architecture, and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in closed-loop control, signal processing, and device intelligence. If you want to work on deeply technical, mission-driven, category-defining product, this is the role for you.
Requirements
- 7+ years developing software for complex embedded systems
- Expert-level C for real-time, resource-constrained firmware environments
- Deep experience with microcontrollers (ARM, TI, ST, etc.)
- Strong grounding in control systems, algorithms , signal processing, and numerical techniques
- Team leadership experience
- Experience working with senior cross-functional leadership
- Ability to collaborate with algorithm scientists and translate models into device-ready implementations
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
Nice To Haves
- Working with I2C/SPI/Flash/EEPROM/USB
