Applications Software Engineer

Project

Work done for a product or program.

• Develop and maintain peripheral driver examples, HAL usage samples and middleware integration code for each device family.
• Build end-to-end demonstration applications such as motor control, sensor fusion, BLE provisioning or edge-AI inference pipelines.
• Port reference software across silicon revisions, compiler versions, RTOS variants and board layouts.
• Set up CI pipelines that build and regression-test every example across supported toolchains on every SDK release.
• Write the code-facing sections of application notes, README files and API usage guidance.
• Reproduce and fix customer-reported defects in reference code and upstream fixes into the SDK.
• Collaborate with silicon validation to confirm reference code matches actual register behaviour and errata.
• Support MISRA C compliance, static analysis clean-up and functional-safety qualification of software components where required.

Function

Work that keeps the discipline running: methods, tools, suppliers and people.

• Instrument and profile code footprint, cycle counts, latency and power consumption and publish measured numbers.
• Review and harden third-party and community contributions before they ship in the official SDK.
