About the role

Boston Engineering, based in Waltham, MA, seeks a Principal Firmware Engineer. The role centers on embedded and firmware work, including RTOS-based systems, hardware bring-up, driver development, and cross-disciplinary collaboration with electrical and mechanical teams. You will design, code, debug, integrate, and mentor, owning both tactical and strategic aspects of embedded software, setting direction and improving processes while guiding a team of engineers.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
