About Us

Boulder Engineering Studio is a premier product development consultancy in Boulder, CO. Our team consists of passionate and experienced mechanical, electrical, software engineers and technicians. We build hardware, firmware and software with an iterative test-driven process in a hands-on collaborative environment. With a wide-ranging portfolio of projects, from scientific instruments and industrial machinery to medical wearables, BES focuses on providing pragmatic solutions to our customers.

We are hiring for an embedded software engineer immediately to support our existing programs while continuing to increase our software development capabilities long term. This a high-growth, hardware facing mid-level role that will be involved throughout the project lifecycle.

About You

We value creativity, passion, and attention to detail. Our work culture fosters these traits in a highly collaborative professional environment. You have at least 2 years of career experience and want to continue to advance and take on new responsibilities. You enjoy working in a fast paced environment, jumping between several projects on a daily basis while remaining organized and efficient. Youre able to self-prioritize milestones while keeping a focus on ensuring project requirements are met and specifications are well tested and documented. When it's not feasible to accomplish your tasks with the constraints youre given, youre comfortable speaking up and working with the team to regroup and adjust.

Qualified candidates for this role should have a background in Python and JS development and experience with hardware debugging. Understanding of how embedded devices and frontends communicate with backends is crucial for this role. A strong knowledge of electronics hardware design is highly relevant but not strictly necessary. Familiarity with Rust and C++ is helpful for understanding and potentially supporting firmware development that our team is regularly working on.

About our Values

BES strives to leave the world better than we found it. We dont design weapons, single use plastics, or intentionally harmful or demeaning products. Our goal is to create value in our relationships and through our work. We believe in finding the right tool for the job- including getting support from outside subject matter experts, vendors, and cutting edge research when called for. These values help ensure that the work we do take on is compelling and a good fit for our team.

Note to Candidates:

Due to the volume of applications we receive, we will only review complete applications which include a resume, a cover letter (even a short one!), and some sort of portfolio, link, explanation, or examples of past work. Our preference is a Gitlab or similar repository of code (does not need to be of a complete project- just a snippet is acceptable) but other forms of work will be accepted and reviewed. This may include links to past products youve worked on (be ready to talk about them in an interview!), open source projects youve been involved in, or anything else you think shows off what youre capable of. First preference will be given to local candidates, but non-local candidates will also be considered and are encouraged to apply. Relocation should not be expected but may be negotiated for the right, exceptional candidate.

We take your application seriously and take the time to review it, we ask that you do too.
