Summary: Soliton is looking to bring onboard a Technical Lead for an Embedded C++ team being created, to work with one of the world's leading semiconductor equipment manufacturers. This will be a technically challenging role working along with highly experienced Embedded C++ and systems architects in the US while guiding and programming alongside a team of very talented and motivated engineers in India. We have offices in Bangalore and Coimbatore, with work from home and hybrid options available.
Soliton has been working with one of the world's leading semiconductor equipment manufacturers for more than 5 years providing LabVIEW software services. We are now expanding to provide Embedded C++ services and building strong teams for this customer and others. We are looking to hire a talented C++ engineer to provide technical leadership. We have an established AI team in Soliton, and we are expecting the Technical Lead to work with our customer and our AI team to find novel and safe ways to leverage Generative AI to significantly enhance our productivity and quality.
Soliton's playbook over the last 26 years has been to hire talented young engineers and give them the right challenges to develop fast. In line with our proven approach, we are looking for a strong C++ engineer and budding architect with 5+ years of experience who is keen to sign up for the opportunity of a lifetime.
The Technical Lead will have the opportunity to work directly with our customer's engineers some of the world's most accomplished engineers with decades of experience in architecting and writing Embedded C++ code for sophisticated electro-mechanical equipment that cost many millions of dollars each! In addition, the culture across the customer's company is very professional, collaborative, and inspiring. Here is an excerpt of the customer's feedback to our LabVIEW team:
Extreme ownership from the Soliton team. They are solving hard problems that are not only technically challenging but also involve close collaboration with external teams. The team never misses a beat when it comes to delivering on promised commitments.
We have to say that our customer never misses a beat to appreciate us each time we make a delivery that hits the mark!
The world is going through an inflection point with the emergence of Generative AI. The practice of designing and developing software will change tremendously in the coming years. We hope that we have created enough interest in you to start a conversation with us, to explore if you will be the one to join our talented team and make amazing breakthroughs in the coming years.
