Full job description
About Humble Robotics Working at Humble Robotics means taking on the biggest change in ground transportation in decades. We’re building an autonomous, zero-emissions hauler that dramatically lowers the cost of freight with groundbreaking vision-based AI, designed for today’s global logistics network.
We’re a fast-moving, close-knit team of AV industry veterans and innovative thinkers. We don’t believe culture can be engineered – but when it falls into place, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.
Progress has never felt so present.
Position Overview As an Embedded Engineer, you will develop safety-critical, real-time firmware for automotive ECUs powering vehicle control and supervisory functions. You will work across the full firmware lifecycle, from board bring-up to production deployment, collaborating closely with hardware, software, systems, and safety engineering teams.
Architect, develop, debug, and test real-time embedded firmware in C++ for automotive-grade microcontrollers
Develop and maintain bootloaders, low-level drivers, middleware, and RTOS configurations
Implement and integrate automotive communication protocols (CAN, LIN, Automotive Ethernet) and peripheral interfaces (SPI, I2C, UART)
Collaborate with hardware engineers on schematic review, board bring-up, and hardware-software co-debugging
Manage reliable communications between compute and embedded platforms on the vehicle
Partner with Tier 1s to integrate vehicle components
Develop and execute unit, integration, and hardware-in-loop test strategies
Root-cause both board-level and vehicle-level issues in the field
Support manufacturing test development and vehicle software deployment.
BS or MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field
3+ years developing production embedded firmware in C/C++
Experience with 32-bit ARM Cortex-M or similar automotive-grade microcontrollers
Experience developing custom HAL, drivers, and middleware on bare-metal or lightweight RTOS platforms
Working knowledge of safety-rated Real-Time Operating Systems
Experience with automotive communication protocols (CAN, LIN) and peripheral interfaces (SPI, I2C, UART)
Comfortable using Git and working in a Linux development environment
Proficiency with hardware debugging tools (SWD/JTAG, multimeter, oscilloscope, logic analyzer)
Eligible to work in the United States
Experience taking an embedded system from concept to production
Experience with safety-critical or fault-tolerant systems in automotive, aerospace, or robotics
Familiarity with ISO 26262 and functional safety concepts
Experience with modern C++ and/or Rust
Automotive Ethernet (100M/1G-T1), TSN/gPTP
Experience with embedded security and/or automotive security
MISRA C/C++ compliance and static analysis tooling
Python for test automation and scripting
Familiarity with HARA, FMEA, and safety-case development
Experience augmenting firmware development with LLMs while maintaining rigor and responsibility
