We are seeking an Embedded Software Development Engineer to join Ring's embedded engineering team. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience developing firmware and software for resource-constrained embedded systems. You should possess deep technical knowledge of embedded architectures, real-time operating systems (RTOS), and Linux-based platforms, with strong debugging skills to diagnose and resolve complex system-level issues. This role requires excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across distributed engineering teams in multiple geographies.

Key job responsibilities
- Design and architect scalable, high-performance embedded software solutions across Ring's device portfolio
- Own end-to-end debugging and resolution of critical firmware and system-level issues affecting customer experience, including device stability, performance, and reliability
- Drive technical decisions and implement resource-efficient software for both RTOS and Linux-based embedded systems at scale
- Lead design and code reviews, establishing best practices and technical standards for embedded software components across multiple product lines
- Mentor and grow junior engineers through technical guidance, code reviews, and knowledge sharing, raising the bar for the team
- Demonstrate customer obsession by identifying and proactively addressing systemic issues that impact device reliability and user satisfaction
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams (firmware, cloud, mobile, product) to define requirements, influence architecture, and deliver integrated solutions
- Drive operational excellence by implementing monitoring, metrics, and diagnostic tools that improve system observability and reduce time-to-resolution
