Key responsibilities

We are currently looking for a Senior Embedded Software Engineer for an exciting assignment with our client. This role is ideal for someone who can quickly ramp up in a new environment and take on a technical leadership role within an ongoing project.

About the role
The client is in a key transformation phase, transitioning from RTOS to Embedded Linux. You will play a central role in defining structure, setting technical direction, and supporting the team throughout this journey. The role combines hands-on development with strategic responsibilities in architecture and technical decision-making. For this role, it is important to be on-site at the client’s location, and therefore no hybrid setup is currently offered. It is also important that the candidate is able to start on relatively short notice.

Responsibilities

- Develop and maintain embedded/software platform components, primarily in C++
- Take technical ownership and help bring structure to an ongoing project
- Guide the transition from RTOS to Embedded Linux
- Implement new features from design to delivery
- Perform deep debugging and troubleshooting across application code, Embedded Linux, and hardware
- Contribute to improvements in build, test, and release processes (CI/CD, Azure DevOps)
- Apply secure and robust engineering practices
Required qualifications

- Strong professional experience with C++ in embedded or system-level development
- Solid experience with Embedded Linux (systems programming, networking, debugging)
- Proven ability to take technical leadership or act as a senior advisor within a team
- Experience working with both RTOS and Embedded Linux, preferably in migration contexts
- Strong mindset around testing, maintainability, and system architecture
- Experience with Git and preferably Azure DevOps
- Experience working in Agile teams
- Fluent in English
- Comfortable working in international and multicultural environments
Nice to have

- Security background (e.g., secure boot/update concepts, threat modeling, vulnerability-aware development)
- RTOS experience
- Familiarity with DevOps/CI/CD practices
- Hands-on experience with Yocto
- Experience with radar and/or LiDAR technologies/products
- Experience with hardware-level troubleshooting
- Experience with C#, Java, or Python

Additional information
This is an opportunity to take on a high-impact role where you will influence both technical direction and ways of working in a modern embedded environment.
