We are backed by top tier VCs from India & the U.S. and we are developing the next generation of Consumer Hardware products powered by AI to transform how humans do every day-to-day task. Key Responsibilities 1. Technical Ownership & Architecture Own the firmware architecture for a Qualcomm-based Bluetooth audio (QCC51xx / QCC30xx / QCC5/3 family). Design and implement low-power, always-connected firmware for: Bluetooth BR/EDR and BLE, audio profiles, and connection management Define patterns for OTA/DFU, fault handling, logging, metrics, and diagnostics for field devices. 2. Delivery & Execution Translate product requirements into a firmware roadmap with clear milestones and releases. Lead board bring-up for new hardware revisions: boot, clocks, power, flash, GPIO, and peripherals (SPI, I²C, UART, etc.). 3. Team Leadership & Processes Build and lead a small, high-performing firmware team (hiring, mentoring, feedback). Ensure solid documentation: architecture overviews, bring-up guides, debug playbooks, and test plans. CI/CD for firmware builds and automated regression testing. 4. Cross-Functional Collaboration Work closely with: Hardware / RF on schematics, pin assignments, power tree, and design-for-test. Mechanical / ID to respect constraints that affect antennas, sensors. Mobile app teams to define BLE services, data models, state machines, and OTA upgrade flows. Product & UX to balance user experience with constraints of power, size, and compute. 5. Quality, Reliability & Manufacturing Define test strategy across: Board bring-up, feature testing, and regression suites Long-run reliability (burn-in, stress, battery and connectivity tests) Factory and production-line test flows (special test firmware, fixtures, scripts). Lead root-cause analysis for field issues and ensure fixes propagate quickly and safely. Ensure security best practices (secure boot, signed images, restricted debug access). 6.Must-Have Qualifications Direct hands-on experience with Qualcomm Bluetooth audio SoCs (QCC51xx / QCC30xx / QCC5/3 family) across at least one full product cycle (prototype → mass production). This is the primary requirement. 10+ years of embedded firmware experience, with 3+ years leading teams or major projects. Excellent communication skills and comfort representing firmware in cross-functional discussions and with leadership. Exposure to audio DSP pipelines, ANC, beamforming, or collaboration with DSP engineers is a bonus.
