Ring organization's mission is — “Keeping people close to what’s important”. We innovate rapidly on behalf of our customers and deliver ambiguous and ambitious technical products.

As an Embedded Software Engineer – Ring you will engage with an experienced cross-disciplinary team across multiple product line & platforms to conceive, architect and design innovative consumer & SME products. Vertically your ownership can span across application, device framework, platform, network stack, Over the Air updates (OTA), protocols, Set-up, drivers, Operating Systems/ bare metal and low-level wireless controllers. You will determine when and how to integrate generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools, evaluate and refine GenAI outputs, and apply responsible AI practices to augment productivity and quality. Horizontally you will be given to opportunity to work and own firmware and platform across all Ring device categories. Beyond technical skills, you have a strategic mindset with the ability to foresee long-term implications of architectural decisions, able to anticipate future trends in technology and adapt the system architecture accordingly.
You will work closely with the Engineering leaders from cross functional teams, product management, hardware, Technical Program managers, operations, application, firmware, platform, and quality assurance teams. You must be responsive, flexible, and able to succeed within an open and collaborative peer environment. The Ring Platform team is responsible for the complete device side software for Ring devices. This includes delivery and maintenance of an evolving feature rich, high-performance, low-power, stable platform.


Key job responsibilities
•Work with cross functional teams to provide technical solutions for desired user experiences.
•Implement high-quality Core Platform, framework, network stack and application features.
•Knowledge of professional software engineering practices & best practices for the full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations
•Implement the right metrics, debug tools and integrate with backend solutions to continuously measure and improve on our solutions.
•Implement power management features, resolve thermal issues & performance bottlenecks in resource (CPU, Memory) constrained Platforms and devices.
•Work with teams to improve and tailor existing firmware, drivers, stack, and applications to our needs. Improve memory footprint, optimize drive, stack and application code.
•Work with the hardware team to ensure correct exercising of hardware and RF architecture.
•Support compliance and certification activities.
• Evaluates tasks to determine when GenAI tools can add value compared to traditional approaches
• Systematically validates GenAI outputs through fact-checking and cross-referencing before implementation


A day in the life
Your work is very hands-on and multi-disciplinary. You will be defining and building firmware, platform, and network solutions and work closely with vendors, engineers, and product teams. You write documents, carry out experiments, demonstrate proof-of-concepts, build prototypes, and ship sophisticated systems. Experiments with GenAI capabilities in structured ways to expand skills and identify new ways to improve work. Combines GenAI assistance with human expertise and judgment to enhance rather than replace critical thinking.

About the team
Ring offers smart security solutions that are dependable and reliable to make neighborhoods safer. You will be part of a fast-paced team that is passionate about delivering innovative solutions to complex problems with foundational GenAI tools, techniques and mechanisms.
