From Fellow's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
At Fellow, we’re on a mission to help people brew ridiculously good coffee at home. But we’re more than just beautifully designed kettles and grinders—we’re a brand built on innovation, community, and culture. We believe great coffee isn’t just about the final cup; it’s about the experience, the ritual, and the people who make it all happen.
We’re looking for a Firmware Engineer in China to design, develop, and maintain robust factory firmware, driver, and UI firmware for our IoT platform.
This role is based in Shenzhen or Guangzhou, China and is required to support Firmware development as well as onsite factory bring-up and test activity in Guangdong areas and other locations required by the Company.
Who You Are
Fellow is looking for a Firmware Engineer in China to design, develop, and maintain robust factory firmware, driver, and UI firmware for our IoT platform. A successful candidate will possess strong embedded engineering fundamentals paired with hands-on experience maintaining and evolving a production firmware codebase end to end — from driver-level development through factory bring-up and release support. This is a rare opportunity to own core firmware responsibilities for physical products used in kitchens around the world.
You will be responsible for the development, maintenance, and optimization of our firmware code base and toolchain, and will serve as the connective tissue between our factory manufacturing schedule and firmware release cadence. You bring strong technical judgment, a high engineering bar, and the hands-on debugging instincts to resolve field, production, and integration issues. We are looking for someone who can work independently while remaining agile and collaborative across time zones.
You'll support automated tests, development tools, and documentation to drive the effectiveness and efficiency of our engineering team.
This is a hands-on technical role. You'll maintain and improve our firmware codebase, and you'll also support onsite factory bring-up and test activity yourself.
The salary range for this position is
35,000 - 45,000 RMB (monthly) plus bonus & equity
. We intentionally publish salary ranges to promote transparency and set clear expectations. Final compensation is determined based on a number of factors, including relevant experience, skills, expertise, scope of previous work, demonstrated impact, and internal equity. As a result, not every candidate will be hired at the top of the range.
Our highest goal at Fellow is creating a safe, inclusive, and rewarding environment where everyone can bring their whole selves to work and thrive. We are committed to building diverse teams and strongly encourage people from underrepresented groups, including but not limited to women, people of color, LGBTQIA+ individuals, people with disabilities, members of ethnic minorities, foreign-born residents, and veterans to apply.
