Garmin Canada has new opportunities for full‑time Embedded Software Engineers and Developers with various levels of experience who are hungry to solve real‑world problems with embedded systems. The following teams are currently hiring:

Biosensor Platform – Optical Team

This team is responsible for the optical sensor driver development and integration among Garmin wearable products. You will work closely with hardware engineers and vendors for new sensor evaluation, perform signal‑quality testing and noise analysis. Our work also includes developing sensor manufacturing tests in the production line and conducting calibrations for specific signal paths to ensure consistent data quality. The team works closely with Garmin global offices to deliver accurate and reliable biosensor metrics for customers throughout their daily activities and sleep.

Fitness Products – Sensor Platform Team

This team specializes in low‑level embedded development, building and maintaining core reusable software at the MCU and driver level, and delivering memory‑efficient solutions that power multiple Garmin accessory products. The team also plays a key role in platform and new controller bring‑up for next‑generation products and integrating new platforms into the broader Garmin ecosystem. Working across multiple product groups, the team provides deep technical expertise and explores emerging technologies to keep Garmin's accessory lineup at the forefront of innovation.

Fitness Products – Varia TM Team

This team is responsible for the end‑to‑end software of Garmin's Varia line of cycling‑awareness products. You will work in a fast‑paced, multi‑disciplinary environment spanning the full product lifecycle: early board bring‑up (partnering closely with the Sensor Platform team), factory integration and scale‑up to mass production, and feature delivery across high‑power lighting, camera systems, and radar technology. Our work also includes building and integrating wireless connectivity that links Varia products with the broader Garmin ecosystem, including mobile apps, wearables, and cycling computers. You will collaborate daily with talented teams across Garmin offices worldwide and contribute to products used by cyclists around the globe.
