Responsibilities and Duties:

Contribute to, or own, software development for a variety of products that require inputs from a cross functional team including engineering, customer service, operations, marketing, and quality.
Maintain and support future development of applications that manage medical device information and perform data analysis on collected data.
Develop and maintain embedded software for STM32 microcontrollers running FreeRTOS.
Enhance and optimize Python communication libraries (USB interfaces) for interacting with embedded devices.
Design, implement, and maintain Python QT5-based user interfaces for seamless product interaction.
Debug, test, and troubleshoot software across embedded and Python environments.
Collaborate with hardware engineers to ensure smooth integration between software and hardware components.
Improve system reliability, performance, and scalability across all software layers.
Support software release cycles and provide technical assistance for production-ready systems.
Learn new technologies to plan and support future development of new applications.
Support company goals and objectives, policies and procedures, design controls, and international/FDA regulations
Write clean, maintainable, and well-documented code adhering to best practices.
Participate in software quality assurance activities required by the software development process.
Responsible for documentation to support design history files (DHF’s), product design verification and validation software, verification and validation, production assembly instructions, and production testing
Support other software efforts within the company
