Software Development Manager

This is a techno-managerial role where you will lead a team of engineers, responsible for the design, development, and delivery of customer-facing peripheral drivers (SPI, I2C, ADC, GPIO, etc.) and embedded software infrastructure components for TI’s connectivity devices. You will drive support for Zephyr RTOS and build the CI/CD infrastructure needed for high-quality SDKs. Mentoring and developing your team is a critical skill that will be highly valued. You will have the opportunity to work with a cross-cultural, multisite team, collaborating with global stakeholders. This role is part of a new team being established at TI India, offering strong ownership and learning opportunities..
