Senior Firmware Engineer

About Us   

Fluxergy is a rapidly growing in vitro diagnostics company innovating on the cutting-edge of laboratory testing. We’re developing the first and only multi-modal point-of-care platform that enables molecular, clinical chemistry, immunoassay, and hematology testing on the same system.  

Our platform spans many markets including the clinical, veterinary, and food safety industries. We are seeking self-motivated problem solvers who are excited to help decentralize traditional laboratory infrastructure.  

At the core of our company’s identity is a strong foundation in engineering. We take great pride in our commitment to critical thinking and pragmatic problem-solving through a modular and systemic perspective. We hold the conviction that transparent communication, coupled with the flexibility to adjust to evolving scenarios and the willingness to venture beyond familiar territories, is crucial to both our success and yours.

About the Role

Does the idea of joining a small, tight knit, highly collaborative team focused on building robust and reliable firmware interest you?

No two days will be the same. One day you might focus on improving existing intra-device interfaces such as UART, SPI, and I2C; other days, you’ll collaborate with others to gather requirements and document specs for our newest version of our product. Ultimately, you will be joining a team on mission to build firmware that is robust, reliable, and meets performance and quality standards. 

We’ve got a lot of new product development over the next 12 months. If you love to learn, build, and grow professionally -- we’d love to hear from you!

Team culture: 

• Positive 
• Proactive 
• Accountable  
• Team oriented 
• Continuous learner
• Great communicator  
• Build strong working relationships 
• Contribute to a productive team culture

What You Will Do

• Develop & test the latest version of our Firmware; and ultimately help build products.
• Ensure that the firmware is robust, reliable, and meets all necessary performance and quality standards.
• Work with the team to identify and resolve any issues or bugs that arise during the development or testing process.
• Explore and experiment with new methodologies for existing features and interfaces, providing quantitative analyses whenever possible.
• Participate in code reviews across languages and job functions.
