About the Role

HP IQ's Connectivity team is seeking an Embedded Firmware Engineer with strong hands-on experience across RTOS and embedded Linux platforms. You'll bring up new hardware, develop and support firmware across core device subsystems, and help scale products from prototype to fleet deployment. A key part of this role is enabling on-device intelligence — bringing AI models, sensing algorithms, and local processing to lightweight, power-constrained devices at the edge.

Responsibilities

Design, develop, and debug firmware across RTOS and embedded Linux platforms.
Lead hardware bring-up — board bring-up, driver integration, and firmware support through to production.
Develop and maintain firmware for subsystems such as connectivity, power and other sensors.
Integrate lightweight model inference and sensing/proximity algorithms within tight compute, memory, and power budgets.
Support fleet-scale deployment: OTA updates, field diagnostics, and post-launch sustainment.
Collaborate with hardware, systems, and QA teams to troubleshoot system-level issues and drive root-cause fixes to closure.

Requirements

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field.
5+ years of embedded firmware development experience spanning RTOS and embedded Linux.
Strong C/C++ programming skills with solid grounding in embedded fundamentals (drivers, interrupts, memory/power constraints, bootloaders).
Board-level debugging experience using tools such as JTAG, oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers.
Familiarity with OTA update mechanisms, field telemetry, and firmware versioning.
Ability to work independently across hardware/software boundaries and communicate findings clearly to partners and leadership.
Experience running AI/ML inference on resource-constrained devices (quantized models, on-device runtimes).
Background in sensor fusion or proximity/localization algorithms.
Experience working directly with silicon vendors on bring-up and optimization.
Familiarity with low-power design and battery-constrained firmware architecture.
