Embedded SW Engineer

A company in the area of defense is building a newly created engineering team focused on the development of products based on ARM microcontrollers and microprocessors.

The Embedded Software Engineer will participate in the design and development of embedded software solutions for new real-time video transmission products. The role combines low-level embedded development, hardware interaction, and hands-on problem solving in a collaborative engineering environment.

This position is ideal for engineers who enjoy practical development work, close cooperation with hardware teams, and working on technically challenging products with real-world impact.

We value technical curiosity, ownership, efficient communication, and a pragmatic development process without unnecessary bureaucracy.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Develop embedded software for microcontroller and microprocessor-based systems.

2. Participate in research, prototyping, and proof-of-concept activities during early product development stages.

3. Collaborate with hardware engineers to define software requirements and system specifications.

4. Write efficient, modular, maintainable, and well-documented software in C/C++.

5. Support software integration, testing, debugging, and validation activities.

6. Troubleshoot and resolve software and system-level issues.

7. Participate in technical discussions and contribute to software architecture improvements.

8. Work closely with cross-functional engineering teams during product development and integration.

9. Contribute to continuous improvement of development processes and engineering practices.

D. Scope of Responsibility and Authority

Responsibility for implementation and maintenance of embedded software components.

Active participation in product development and technical problem solving.

Collaboration across software, hardware, and system engineering disciplines.

Impact of errors: medium (system instability, product delays, integration failures).

E. Qualification Requirements
