This is a hands-on technical role at the intersection of embedded systems, digital signal processing, and sensing methodology. You will implement new detectors and sensing elements, own the signal data from end to end, and work directly with Hardware and ML teams to get the visibility into the industrial processes we need.\nWhat You Will Do\nAcquisition & Conditioning: Own the sensing signal chain, covering ADC acquisition and timing, filtering, integration and averaging strategy, and calibration.\n\nSensor Integration:Integrate new detectors and sensing elements as our sensor lineup evolves. Own integration, supporting board bring-up through production-ready drivers.\n\nNoise Rejection: Get the real signal out of noisy environments. Tackle challenges like vibration, EMI, thermal drift, and more.\n\nFirmware development:Develop firmware in Zephyr to interface with new detectors into our existing modular sensor stack\n\nCalibration:Build the firmware side of calibration, including on-device coefficient storage, third party calibration procedures, and the final provisioning process for our sensors.\n\nDevice Connectivity:Ship drivers, OTA, and health monitoring for our sensors to carry data up to our Edge Gateway.\n\nAbout You\n4+ years of experience building embedded software for sensors or instrumentation.\n\nTrack record of owning the design, implementation, and success of significant components within a larger system.\n\nComfortable defining technical direction, taking ownership, and delivering in a fast-paced product iteration cycle.\n\nStrong embedded C/C++ on microcontrollers with production Zephyr experience. You are fluent in devicetree, Kconfig, west, and the device driver model.\n\nYou have designed filters, tackled sampling and aliasing, and designed and debugged signal chains.\n\nComfortable with analog: ADCs, gain, references, grounding, and noise.\n\nTesting heavy, pushing for unit tests, hardware mocks, CI, and collecting realistic data.\n\nExperience with optical and electrical sensing and emitters.\n\nExperience productionizing new sensing methodologies, from prototype to deployed product.\n\nBenefits\nDirect impact on product and culture.\nComprehensive benefits package including Medical, Dental, Vision, Life Insurance, Disability, Transportation benefit, Health and Wellness benefit, and more.\n401k plan with employer matching\nEquity\nCompetitive salary and bonus opportunities.\nDynamic and inclusive work environment.\nOpportunities for growth and professional development.\nAccess to Greentown Labs' extensive network of cleantech startups.\nLearn How We Think\nLearn about our startup journey: Our Journey\n\nHow we're combating climate change: AI-Powered Climate Tech\n\nA customer story: Ben & Jerry's uses H2Ok's precision automation to cut time & water usage","description_format":"text","description_chars":2908,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":4,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["401k plan","Equity","Life insurance","Professional development"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Electrical & Electronic Engineering","Sensors & Transducers","Industrial AI"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-24T23:01:11Z"}],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":31,"reasons":["conf:0","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-09-25T05:45:01Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":180000,"is_top_pay":false},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/laminar-senior-software-engineer-embedded-systems","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/laminar-senior-software-engineer-embedded-systems.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-09-26T02:38:15Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","usage":{"tier":"crawler","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":2763,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":2237,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-09-27T00:00:00Z"}}}
