Insight Global is looking for a Software Algorithm Engineer for one of our clients out of Southfield, MI. The ideal candidate will be responsible for developing high-quality applications. They will also be responsible for designing and implementing testable and scalable code. Responsibilities • Design and implement embedded software solutions that interface with sensors, wireless radios, ethernet networks, etc. while maintaining real-time requirements (sub micro/nano-second). • Develop robust drivers and firmware components that integrate seamlessly into larger embedded platforms. • Work closely with FPGA, hardware, and DSP teams to ensure smooth integration of software and firmware components. • Optimize embedded system performance—memory usage, real-time responsiveness, and power consumption—across various platforms and microcontrollers. • Collaborate with QA and test engineers to define comprehensive testing strategies, including unit tests and automated integration tests. • Diagnose complex issues using debug tools, oscilloscopes, and in-circuit emulators, ensuring system reliability and stability. Qualifications • Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science or related field • 5+ years of experience in embedded software development using C/C++ (additional experience with assembly or Python is a plus). • Hands-on knowledge of microcontrollers, RTOS environments, hardware interfaces (SPI, I2C, UART), and hardware-in-the-loop testing. • Familiarity with version control tools (e.g., Git) and continuous integration (CI/CD) practices. • Comfortable working at the intersection of hardware and software—understanding low-level drivers, interrupt service routines, and resource constraints. • Ability to translate system requirements into efficient, maintainable code with a keen eye for potential performance bottlenecks. • Adept at breaking down complex technical challenges related to sensors, wireless protocols, or real-time constraints into actionable tasks. • Thrives in a fast-paced, R&D-focused environment where some requirements may be fluid and solutions need to be validated quickly. • Ownership of projects, from initial planning through deployment, while actively seeking and incorporating stakeholder feedback. • Enthusiastic about working in a multi-disciplinary team and contributing to the collective success of high-accuracy micro-location solutions.
