  • 3+ years of designing and developing large-scale, multi-tiered, multi-threaded, embedded or distributed software applications
  • Experience in embedded wireless systems
  • Experience in embedded development in C/C++

Responsibilities

  • Design, develop, and maintain embedded software for Ring devices running on RTOS and Linux-based platforms
  • Own end-to-end debugging and root-cause analysis of system-level issues impacting device performance
  • Drive technical decisions on embedded software architecture, balancing performance and maintainability
  • Lead design and code reviews, championing engineering best practices
  • Mentor junior engineers through hands-on technical guidance and knowledge sharing
  • Collaborate with hardware, cloud, mobile, and product teams to define requirements
  • Proactively identify and address systemic issues that affect device reliability

  • Employees at Amazon are often offered comprehensive health benefits—including multiple medical plan options (no pre-existing condition exclusions, 100% covered in-network preventive care), dental and vision plans, a 24/7 medical advice line from day one, expert second-opinion services, and broad mental-health support with several free counseling sessions (including pediatric). Financial wellness typically includes a 401(k) with company match (up to 2%), Restricted Stock Units (equity), FSAs, an emergency savings program, product and partner discounts, and even college-savings and home-purchase programs. Overall, the package is designed to support employees and their families’ health, finances, and day-to-day life.
