Develop verification plans and quality assurance procedures
Document and maintain functionality
Comply with project plans and industry standards

Your Experience So Far:

Bachelor’s or master’s degree in electrical/ computer engineering or computer science
3–5 years of embedded firmware development experience spanning MCU, MPU, and FPGA/VHDL, with a strong emphasis on system integration
Experience with Xilinx FPGA technologies and embedded Linux development, including the application/software side on Ubuntu (build, packaging, and system-level integration)
Experience developing within the Vivado software development environment (HLS development experience is an asset)
Strong MCU (baremetal and RTOS) and MPU development experience, including bring-up, driver/BSP work, and inter-processor communication
Experience developing for MPSoC Ultrascale+ and STM32 product family
Hands-on experience in debugging FPGA firmware using software, hardware logic analyzers and Oscilloscope
Ability to read circuit schematic related to MPU, FPGA, and MCU hardware
Ability to write C/C++ software for testing and for integration with firmware
Strong interpersonal skills and verbal communication skills in English
Attention to detail and the ability to produce efficient documentation
Familiarity with software development methodology and release processes
Proficiency with modern AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Claude, OpenAI Codex, GitHub Copilot) to accelerate coding, debugging, and documentation
Knowledge of following standards: IEC 62304, ISO 14971, IEC 60601, and ISO 13485 is favorable but not mandatory.

Location and Compensation:

Due to the hands-on nature of this role, you will be required to work on-site for the majority of the first 4-6 months of the contract. A hybrid arrangement may be considered thereafter. As a result, we can only consider candidates who are within a commutable distance of our Vancouver, BC office.

This is a two-year fixed-term contract with a strong likelihood of extension upon meeting project deliverables. The salary range for this role is $100,000 - $120,000.

More Reasons to Consider:

Be Part of a High-Impact Project – You’ll play a key role in creating a more affordable ultrasound solution, making medical imaging more accessible worldwide.

Work for a Three-Time Certified Great Place to Work – Clarius has been recognized three times as a great place to work, and you’ll be joining a company that values innovation, teamwork, and employee well-being.

Workspace: Our modern office features sit/stand desks, various health & wellness facilities, a stocked kitchen, outdoor amenities, on-site daycare, enclosed parking, a free on-site gym and close proximity to a SkyTrain station.
