About the role

Integrate industrial hardware, from standard PLCs to specialized instrumentation, navigating complex register maps and standard protocols. Reverse-engineer "black box" hardware behavior when vendor documentation falls short, treating datasheets as hypotheses rather than facts.

What they're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field (or equivalent practical experience)
  • 3+ years of professional experience in systems programming (C/C++/Rust) or embedded software development
  • High proficiency in Rust, C, or C++, with a willingness to work primarily in Rust
  • Strong understanding of Linux internals, including sockets, syscalls, and kernel-to-userspace data flow
  • Ability to interpret electrical schematics, datasheets, and timing diagrams to translate hardware behavior into code
  • Experience implementing and debugging industrial protocols (e.g., Modbus, TCP/IP, SPI, I2C, CAN, UART, RS-485)

About Revel

At Revel, we are revolutionizing the way the world's most critical hardware is controlled—across aerospace, automotive, energy, and manufacturing sectors. Our next-generation software stack combines an intuitive command/control interface, a specialized programming language tailored for hardware control, and a high-performance runtime environment. We empower engineers to build, test, and deploy critical systems rapidly, reliably, and safely.

Role Overview

We are looking for an experienced Embedded Software Engineer to join our rapidly growing engineering team. In this role, you will build the critical software layer that bridges Revel's high-performance runtime and the complex physical world of industrial machinery. We are seeking a systems expert who obsesses over performance and abstraction, to whom a millisecond seems like an eternity, and who takes pride in implementing drivers that are robust, portable, and mathematically correct.
