associate principal platform Software EngineerDyson

The next few years are going to be Dyson's biggest and busiest yet. All thanks to a £2.5 billion commitment to its future technology pipeline. This growth will need the support of more new people across other functions around the world, including the Philippines. We have 6,000 engineers and scientists worldwide and we are now looking to recruit more in the Philippines. With this pace of growth, these ambitious plans, and the complexities of global expansion, it is natural that Dyson is now thinking about the best ways to organize itself globally and manage its exciting new product ranges to best effect. With APAC now our biggest growth region, we need to question where and how we invest to underpin the future. Our plans for the Philippines are ambitious and we are looking for talented people to join our Research, Design and Engineering families!
The Role:
You'll be an experienced real-time embedded system engineer with excellent firmware coding knowledge. Working in an agile cross-functional team, you will be a key member of the robotics platform team and contribute to the development of sensors integration, system kernel and board bring up, and providing unified hardware abstraction layer to enable the development of more complex behaviour features in the upper application layer in our robotic products.
You desire to create high quality, robust code to solve diverse real-world problems. You must be fluent in both C and C++ and be comfortable in the whole product life cycle, including design, implementation, deployment, testing and debugging of firmware and application code.
You'll collaborate with architects, software, firmware and hardware engineers, manufacturing test engineers, and specialist engineering to help solve the wide and exciting range of robotics challenges posed by the ever-expanding Dyson product portfolio.
Key Responsibilities:
Develop real-time embedded software for production consumer products on a range of silicon platforms, mainly ARM/MCU based
Involve/Steer product/system requirement document review and evaluation, feasibility study and proof of concept
Manage the entire life cycle of multiple related complex modules and systems, including hardware abstraction layer discussion, manufacturing test/verification methodology, documentation, design, coding, testing, maintenance, and result tracking
Involve in continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) infrastructure/environment setup
Good product sense and keen focus on product performance.
Act as subject matter expert (SME) in specific domain, disseminating knowledge, guiding and mentor engineers in methodology, best practice and standards
Proactively identify technical risks within projects and influence engineering teams in their resolution
In-depth participation in cross-teams product design discussions will be required.
Key Skills / Experience
A bachelor's degree or higher in Computer Science, Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, robotics engineering or similar.
8+ years of experience in embedded system firmware development
Good knowledge of MCU/MPU architecture and its common peripherals
Good command of C/C++ programming language
Excellent knowledge of real time OS
Proficiency in multithreading programming and synchronisation mechanisms.
Experience in configuration and use of sensor devices over I2C, SPI, UART with DMA
Experience in on and off target test harness, such as Ceedling, Behave, etc. is a plus.
Experience in automated testing and manufacturing test process is highly desired.
Good understanding of software development life cycles and basic electronics hardware (interface to software systems)
Familiar with embedded development tools (emulators, debuggers, analysers, oscilloscopes, etc.) as well as configuration management tools and concepts
Candidates with the following experience are advantageous:
Bluetooth Low Energy protocols, including BLE 4.x and 5.0
Exposure to one or more of the following: WiFi (802.11), NFC, ZigBee, 802.15.4, 3GPP, MQTT, Apple homekit
Knowledge of software security, LabVIEW, Linux-based embedded system
Experience in fulfilling continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline setup is a plus
Knowledge of the Atlassian suite (JIRA, Confluence, bitbucket), and experience in Agile practice would be an advantage.
The ability to learn continuously and improve oneself.
Professionalism and excellent communication skills; ability to communicate complex information at every level.
Optimism and an excitement about collaborating with teammates and interdisciplinary teams (including hardware/firmware/system/software engineers and suppliers' FAE), and technically support development (such as manufacturing test engineers).
For a highly experienced candidate, we expect excellent technical guidance skills and the ability to influence the work of others. Experience in over-sighting high complexity software development projects is an advantage
Independent, Integrity and self-driven with a strong focus on results to ensure that the whole team succeeds in its goals.
Fluent in spoken and written English

Inside Dyson technology
To truly understand the science of hair, Dyson created hair science laboratories. Over six years, 103 Dyson engineers including scientists and stylists looked at everything from airflow dynamics to hair's cellular structure, testing nearly 1,010 miles of hair in the process.
