The lemon tea
Embedded software developers who ship firmware
Firmware bugs ship inside devices you can't easily recall. Our embedded software developers write C and C++ for microcontrollers with memory, power and timing in mind.

Timing and memory budgets
Interviewers probe interrupts, RTOS tasks and static memory. Dynamic allocation in a hard real-time loop fails.

Firmware skills on profiles
Embedded work hides on C, C++ and IoT profiles. Look it up yourself in Lemon's open database. Other marketplaces just send their picks.

Hardware lead interviews
Your hardware lead can quiz candidates on your board before you confirm.
Why hire embedded software developers
An embedded software developer makes your device reliable, power-efficient and safe to update.
First weeks on a board
Bring-up, toolchain and a test harness before features.
Firmware or app developer?
Firmware runs the device; app developers build what talks to it.
OTA firmware updates
Safe remote updates with rollback if something fails.
Low-power design
Sleep modes and drivers that stretch battery life.
Case studies
