Develop and test the Ambiqsuite SDK for MCU devices and emulation platforms. Extend hardware abstraction layers, board support packages, and device drivers for new platforms. Create SDK examples and test cases, analyze embedded-system issues, perform hands-on debugging, and build Python automation scripts for SDK development, builds, and verification workflows.
Company Overview
Ambiq is on a mission to enable intelligence everywhere — powering the AI edge revolution with the world's lowest-power semiconductor solutions.
Built on our proprietary sub- and near-threshold technology, our chips deliver multi-fold improvements in energy efficiency without costly process scaling. Since 2010, we've shipped over 300 million units to customers building smarter wearables, medical devices, IoT products, and AI-powered edge applications.
Our cross-functional teams span design, research, development, production, marketing, sales, and operations across Austin, Hsinchu, Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Singapore. We move fast, tackle hard problems, and create space for people to grow through complex, meaningful work that shapes the future of technology.
We're looking for self-motivated, creative problem-solvers who are eager to push technological limits and make a real impact in energy efficiency.
At Ambiq, we live by five values: Innovate. Collaborate. Focus. Learn. Achieve.
If that's you, join us — the intelligence everywhere revolution starts here.
- As the Embedded Software Intern at Ambiq, you will involve in the development and testing of Ambiqsuite SDK on Ambiq SOC devices and emulation platforms
- This role will work within our global MCU software development team, focusing on MCU software development and verification activities.
- The successful candidate should be a fast-learning, result-driven, and self-motivated team player with an “always learning” mindset. He should have an inquiring spirit and be comfortable in a lab environment and in executing hands-on debugging for embedded systems.
- The person in this role will be responsible for extending the hardware adaptation layer (HAL) and device drivers of the SDK to new platforms as well as enhancing its features and content. The candidate will be involved in the extension of the SDK to cover new MCU members of the family as they become available.
- Involve in feature improvement, verification, and maintenance of hardware abstraction layer (HAL) and board support package (BSP) of the SDK. You will have the chances to work on various MCU functional blocks, such as Cache, MPU, TCM, MRAM, Clock, Power, USB, Graphics, Imaging, and Audio etc.
- Develop SDK examples that demonstrate the features and strengths of the MCU, along with test cases to ensure that HAL and BSP reliability and correctness.
- Assist in the analyzing reported issues to identify the root causes and propose effective solutions. You will gain insights of the real-world challenges our customer faces and how they are addressed.
- Create and enhance automation scripts, primarily in Python, to automate various tasks in the development of an SDK. You will have the exposure on automation in various areas in SDK development, including build process, development process, verification flows etc.
