Job description

We are tech transformation specialists, uniting human expertise with AI to create scalable tech solutions.

With over 7,400 CI&Ters around the world, we’ve built partnerships with more than 1,000 clients during our 30 years of history. Artificial Intelligence is our reality.

At CI&T, we are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Mid-Level Embedded Software Developer to join our team in Colombia. You will contribute to an innovative project in a collaborative, innovating, transforming and multicultural environment.

Position Overview

As a Mid-Level Embedded Software Developer, you will architect and implement high-performance C/C++ applications for Linux-based embedded systems. You'll create robust solutions that interface with hardware components while ensuring optimal performance in resource-constrained environments. Working in a collaborative team, you'll design modular code that meets quality standards and helps drive technological innovation.

Key Responsibilities

Design and develop C/C++ applications, shell scripts, daemons, libraries, and command-line tools for BusyBox or full Linux distributions

Create modular, testable code that interfaces with device drivers and hardware peripherals (I2C, SPI, UART, USB)

Implement IPC layers (shared memory, TIPC) and networking protocols (TCP/UDP, REST/JSON, gRPC, MQTT) for cloud service integration

Optimize memory footprint and CPU usage for resource-constrained environments

Develop robust error handling, watchdog recovery mechanisms, and OTA update capabilities

Collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality embedded solutions

Required Skills and Qualifications

Professional experience developing C and/or modern C++ (11/14/17) on Embedded Linux platforms

Solid understanding of Linux internals (process scheduling, memory management, file systems, udev) and cross-compilation toolchains (Yocto, CMake)

Hands-on experience with multithreading (pthreads or std::thread), synchronization primitives, and real-time constraints

Proficiency with Git, Gerrit or GitHub, and CI/CD (Jenkins, GitLab CI)

BS/MS Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field, or equivalent practical experience

Nice-to-have Skills

Familiarity with RFID or other RF protocols

Experience integrating secure boot, TPM, or trusted execution environments

Knowledge of graphical frameworks (VueJS) or web-based UIs (HTML, JavaScript)

At CI&T, we believe in the power of Collaboration, Innovation & Transformation to create meaningful impact for our clients and their customers. By joining our team, you'll be part of an organization that embraces cutting-edge technologies including AI to solve complex business challenges. We foster a multicultural environment where your ideas and expertise will be valued, and where continuous learning is encouraged. If you're passionate about technology and ready to shape the future through code, CI&T is where you belong.
