You will work at the intersection of hardware, firmware, and sensing—developing robust, real-time embedded systems for medical-grade wearable devices operating in noisy, real-world conditions. What you’ll do Develop and maintain embedded firmware for in-ear earable devices (MCUs, sensors, BLE). Implement real-time data acquisition pipelines for multimodal sensors (PPG, IMU, microphones, temperature). Optimise power consumption, latency, and memory for continuous sensing workloads. Work closely with hardware teams on board bring-up, debugging, and system integration. Support prototyping, testing, and validation in lab and clinical study settings. Contribute to reliability, safety, and robustness of long-running wearable systems. What we expect Strong experience in embedded C/C++ for resource-constrained systems. Hands-on experience with MCUs, RTOS, and peripheral interfaces (I2C, SPI, UART). Familiarity with BLE and low-power wireless communication. Experience debugging hardware/software interactions. Comfort working across firmware, hardware, and systems teams. Why OmniBuds At OmniBuds, you’ll build embedded systems that directly enable new forms of continuous cardiovascular monitoring. Your work will move beyond demos—into real clinical studies and real patient impact.
