About the role

AIM Intelligent Machines, Inc. is seeking a Senior Firmware Engineer to design and build core systems powering autonomous heavy machinery. You will craft embedded C++ code, develop low-level drivers, and ensure deterministic real-time behavior across CAN, SPI, I2C, UART, and Ethernet interfaces for Gen2 hardware. You will lead hardware bring-up, improve telemetry and observability, and mentor engineers while balancing performance, safety, and reliability in field deployments.

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.
