$133,200–$163,200/annual

At Ubiety Technologies, Inc we are redefining physical security. We develop innovative device detection and RF signaling products that protect homes, businesses, and communities. As part of our fast-paced, highly collaborative startup team, you'll work alongside world-class engineers and creative designers to invent and deliver transformative products from inception to production.

We are seeking a Senior Embedded Software Engineer to design, develop, test, and support our next generation of connected device solutions. This role is the critical link across our hardware, firmware, and cloud-connected platforms. You will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to build highly reliable, low-latency, and secure IoT products that handle high-velocity edge environments. If you thrive on the challenge of full-lifecycle product development—from initial board bring-up to fleet-scale cloud integration—this role is for you.

Key ResponsibilitiesAs a core member of the Embedded Team, you will:

  • Design, develop, test, and maintain firmware for embedded systems and IoT devices.
  • Develop software for microcontrollers, sensors, communication modules, single board computers, board support packages (BSP), and connected hardware platforms.
  • Supporting the full product development lifecycle, including concept, design, prototyping, validation, production, and post-launch support.
  • Implement communication protocols such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Zigbee, cellular, LoRaWAN, MQTT, CAN, SPI, I2C, UART, or similar technologies. 
  • Collaborate with hardware engineers on board bring-up, debugging, schematic review, peripheral integration, and system validation.
  • Support device security, firmware updates, data integrity, and secure communication requirements.
  • Create and maintain technical documentation, design specifications, test plans, and engineering records.
  • Participate in design reviews, code reviews, risk assessments, and continuous improvement efforts.

Technical Skills & Requirements

  • Experience: 5+ years of experience in embedded systems, firmware development, or IoT engineering. A Bachelor’s or Advanced degree in EE, CE, CS, or a related field is preferred (or equivalent practical experience).
  • Languages & Environments: Proficiency in C, C++, and Python. Solid experience with bare-metal development, RTOS, and embedded Linux (BSP, device drivers, kernel configuration).
  • Protocols & Connectivity: Deep familiarity with wireless and wired stacks (BLE, Wi-Fi, MQTT, cellular, LoRaWAN, Zigbee, CAN, SPI, I2C, UART).
  • Modern Tools & Infrastructure: Experience with AWS IoT fleet management, observability tooling (OpenTelemetry), and automated testing/deployment via CI/CD pipelines (GitLab Runners).
  • Hardware Tooling: Comfortable using debugging tools like oscilloscopes and logic analyzers to run root-cause analysis on complex physical/digital issues.

Key Success Metrics

  • System Health & Reliability: Ensure optimal performance, maintainability, and quality of firmware to minimize field defects and recurring technical failures.
  • Milestone Delivery: Timely execution of embedded software and IoT engineering goals through excellent cross-functional collaboration.
  • Operational Observability: Successful integration of telemetry and monitoring to maintain insight into large connected device fleets.

About Our Process

We know your time is valuable and we treat it as an investment. We consider the interview process to be a mutual evaluation. If your resume is a match, we'll reach out to schedule a brief 30-minute initial conversation. To ensure both sides get the depth they need without wasting time, our advanced rounds are highly focused: you'll deep-dive with the hiring manager, meet a panel of your engineering peers, and connect directly with our CTO and CEO to discuss the company's long-term vision.

What We Offer

  • Competitive salary tailored to your experience and impact.
  • Equity Awards: We believe strongly that if you contribute to Ubiety’s value, you should share in that reward.
  • An environment that prioritizes and values creativity and innovation!
  • Competitive benefits including: medical, dental, vision, 401(k), and PTO.
  • Remote opportunity, with preference given to candidates in the greater Chicago area, FL, or GA.

We thrive in a fast-paced environment where we adapt quickly, collaborate deeply, and solve complex challenges with urgency and creativity. Every team member plays a critical role, and we value curiosity, autonomy, and the drive to build something truly impactful.

As we grow, we're looking for people who want to roll up their sleeves and help shape the future of home security. If you're excited by hard problems, energized by collaboration, and motivated by a meaningful mission, we’d love to meet you!

"We have a huge amount of heart, and that energy is contagious. Previously we were primarily an engineering-led team. Since then, we’ve grown into a more product-led organization, which has brought a lot of clarity. As engineers, we trust the product team’s vision and feel empowered to build features that support an incredible product."

Harsha K.

"First off, everyone has been kind and helpful since the moment I started working here. I never feel afraid to ask for guidance and of course, it’s nice to genuinely like the people you work with. I also really appreciate the team's problem-solving attitude. I’ve seen us face some big challenges, and I’ve watched everyone take them on head-first."

Arin R.

"Ubiety gives you the chance to work on technology that makes such a positive impact on many lives. Families in their most vulnerable moments depend on what you’re building to help keep them as proactively safe as possible. It’s something we can all relate to, and it inherently motivates and connects us."
