Firmware Engineer

Tritium is a global leader in DC fast charging technology for electric vehicles, and we’re looking for a talented Firmware Engineer to join a small, high-performing team building the embedded software that drives our next generation of DC fast chargers.

If you’re passionate about embedded systems, love getting close to the hardware, and want your work to have a real-world impact on sustainable energy, this is the role for you.

What You’ll Do

• Design, develop, and debug embedded C firmware for Tritium’s charging systems, from bare-metal microcontrollers to embedded Linux environments
• Build test plans, unit tests, and simulations to validate firmware quality and performance
• Contribute to firmware architecture decisions that improve scalability and maintainability
• Participate in hands-on hardware bring-up of circuits and peripherals
• Collaborate closely with hardware, systems, and validation engineers to ship cohesive products
• Engage with Customer Support and Production teams to identify and deliver firmware improvements
• Write and maintain clear documentation covering design, testing, and support

What You’ll Bring

• A Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (or equivalent practical experience)
• 2–5 years of embedded firmware development experience
• Strong C programming skills and solid fundamentals in architecture, data structures, and memory management
• The ability to read and interpret electronic schematics
• Sharp debugging and troubleshooting instincts
• Clear written and verbal communication skills

Nice to Have:

• Experience across both bare-metal and embedded Linux platforms
• Familiarity with EV systems, charging technologies, or power electronics
• Exposure to version control, CI/CD, and configuration management practices

Why Tritium?

• Work on technology that’s genuinely shaping the future of transport, not just talking about it.
• See your impact in the real world, with our chargers deployed globally.
• Free on-site DC fast charging for your EV.
• Novated leasing and meaningful employee savings benefits.
• Flexible access to your earned wages.
• Global career pathways in a high-performance engineering environment.
