About the role
About the Team The Bluetooth R&D; team at Silicon Labs develops and maintains embedded firmware for wireless products across Bluetooth Classic and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). The team works on performance-critical, standards-compliant firmware enabling advanced use cases such as audio streaming, HFP calling, and LE Audio, in close collaboration with cross-functional engineering teams across multiple global locations. The Role Silicon Labs is seeking a Senior Software Engineer Embedded Firmware to design and deliver high-quality embedded firmware for resource-constrained wireless systems. This is a hands-on, embedded-centric role requiring deep expertise in real-time firmware development, low-level debugging, and system-level thinking. Bluetooth experienceparticularly in audio-related use casesis strongly preferred, but the role primarily targets engineers with proven senior-level embedded firmware skills who can quickly ramp on complex wireless stacks and drive technical ownership. Key Responsibilities - Design, implement, and maintain real-time embedded firmware in C/C for resource-constrained systems. - Own complex firmware features from design through implementation, debugging, and release. - Develop timing-critical, performance-sensitive code with solid attention to memory, power, and CPU constraints. - Debug complex system-level issues spanning firmware, hardware, and protocol interactions. - Contribute to multi-protocol and wireless coexistence (CoEx) solutions. - Participate in technical design reviews, code reviews, and product qualification activities. - Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams including systems, PHY/RF, validation, and customer-facing engineering teams. - Provide technical mentorship and guidance to junior engineers and contribute to team knowledge sharing. Required Skills and Experience - Strong, hands-on experience in embedded firmware development, with deep proficiency in C/C . - Solid understanding of real-time systems, interrupts, concurrency, and low-level hardware interactions. - Proven experience building memory- and power-optimized embedded software. - Strong debugging skills using hardware and software tools (JTAG, trace, logs, protocol analyzers, etc.). - Demonstrated ability to independently drive technical solutions and make sound design decisions. - Experience delivering embedded software products from concept through production. Preferred / Bonus Skills - Experience with Bluetooth Classic and/or Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). - Familiarity with Bluetooth audio use cases (e.g., audio streaming, HFP, LE Audio). - Understanding of Bluetooth controller architectures and wireless protocol stacks. - Experience with wireless coexistence (CoEx) and multi-protocol systems. - Familiarity with modern development workflows, including automation, scripting, and CI practices. - Exposure to or practical use of GenAI-assisted development tools (e.g., AI code assistants, analysis tools, productivity tools) as a productivity and quality enhancement. Education and Experience Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience. 5 to 10 years of industry experience in embedded firmware or systems-level software development. Experience with artificial intelligence (AI) powered tools and technologies used to enhance productivity, analysis, and decision-making Benefits & Perks : Not only will you be joining a highly skilled and tight-knit team where every engineer makes a significant impact on the product; we also strive for good work/life balance and to make our environment welcoming and fun. - Equity Rewards (RSUs) - Insurance plans with Outpatient cover - National Pension Scheme (NPS) - Flexible work policy - Childcare support About the Team The Bluetooth R&D; team at Silicon Labs develops and maintains embedded firmware for wireless products across Bluetooth Classic and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE).
