Job Description
About the role
Mbed OS is a new platform operating system we are building that integrates the security and software services needed for developing this next generation of secure, connected devices based on Cortex-M SoCs. As Windows and Mac OS X did for the PC ecosystem, and Android and iOS did for smartphone apps, mbed OS will be one of the key platform operating systems that enables developers to effectively create and deploy billions of innovative IoT devices.
Are your a talented software engineer who is passionate about creating debugging tools and methodologies for microcontrollers?
About the group
The Internet of Things is the next computer revolution, where devices become internet connected citizens themselves, creating all sorts of disruptive opportunities for society and business. Arm has setup a new division to help realise these opportunities by creating software and services focused on IoT enablement. Our team is building Mbed OS, a secure, low power and connected open-source operating systems for Arm Cortex-M SoCs that can be used by 100,000s of developers creating these connected IoT devices.
What will I be accountable for?
- Creating next generation debug tools specifically targeting IoT devices and their unique needs
- Enhancing debugging of the implementation and power consumption of IoT microcontroller applications
- Making the software platform an intuitive and productive experience for all types of developers
- Collaborating with the rest of our engineering team
- Helping our developer community be successful
- Lots of software in assembly, C, C++ and Python!
What might my day-to-day responsibilities include?
- Delivering key roadmap items for our IoT debug strategy
- Lead developer and maintainer for pyOCD, our open-source python binding for the CMSIS-DAP protocol
- Help developers identify, solve problems and fix bugs
- Learn from the problems developers face and propose ways tools can make this go away
- Creating examples and tutorials on how to use these tools
- Contributing to the larger full stack open-source OS and tools that we are developing
Job Requirements
What skills, experience, and qualifications do I need?
