Job Description

The Firmware Engineer will be responsible for developing and maintaining firmware for HID devices using ARM Cortex-M and RISC-V MCUs. This role involves designing, implementing, and maintaining embedded firmware for HID devices. The engineer will develop USB HID, BLE HID, and 2.4Ghz proprietary HID protocols, implement firmware update mechanisms and bootloader support, implement and control RGB LED lighting effects and develop firmware for driving and updating LCD displays. They will conduct performance tuning, code optimization, and power efficiency improvements. Collaborating with cross-functional teams in hardware, software, QA, and PM to deliver high-performance HID peripherals such as gaming keyboard, mice across USB, BLE and proprietary 2.4G protocols.
Good To Have:
  • Knowledge of USB-IF certification process and HID descriptor design.
  • Experience with CI/CD for embedded systems (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab CI).
  • Familiarity with power profiling tools and energy-aware design.
Must Have:
  • 3+ years of experience in embedded firmware development.
  • Proficiency in C/C++ and real-time embedded systems development.
  • Familiarity with communication Interface/protocol such as USB, SPI, I2C, Proprietary 2.4G and BLE.
