Diamondfoundry is hiring a Senior Firmware Engineer to lead the architecture and development of embedded firmware for high-performance power electronic systems. In this hands-on role, you will focus on real-time digital control, working on high-frequency power converters and advanced embedded programming for data center, energy conversion, and automotive applications.
What You'll Do
- Architect and implement real-time digital control firmware for automotive and industrial AC-DC, DC-DC, and inverter systems, including high-speed interrupt-driven control loops and DSP optimization.
- Develop and tune advanced control algorithms (PID, state-space, digital compensators, observers) for high-bandwidth power converters with deterministic timing and loop stability.
- Lead embedded development across multiple microcontroller and DSP platforms, interfacing with ADCs, PWMs, sensors, and gate drivers in high-voltage systems.
- Drive hardware bring-up, system debugging, validation, and performance optimization using professional tools (JTAG, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers), including automated testing and calibration frameworks.
- Develop GUI-based engineering tools (Python or Visual C++), simulation workflows (MATLAB/Simulink), and maintain firmware architecture standards aligned with automotive safety processes.
What We're Looking For
- BS or MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field.
- 5+ years of experience developing real-time embedded firmware in C/C++ for power electronics or high-performance control systems.
- Proven experience implementing digital control algorithms for high-frequency switching power converters (AC-DC, DC-DC, inverters), with a strong foundation in control theory and DSP.
- Expert proficiency in C/C++ and advanced microcontroller programming techniques in real-time, interrupt-driven environments, including RTOS concepts and low-latency architectures.
- Strong experience with Git and collaborative development workflows.
- Experience with embedded system validation and modeling tools (JTAG, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, MATLAB/Simulink).
Nice to Have
- Automotive development process and safety standards knowledge (e.g., ISO 26262).
Technical Stack
- C/C++, Python, Visual C++
- MATLAB/Simulink
- Git
- RTOS
- Microcontroller, DSP
- JTAG
Benefits & Compensation
- Health insurance
- Flexible spending accounts
- Retirement savings plans
- Life and disability insurance programs
- Programs for paid and unpaid time away from work
- Employee discounts to VRAI
