Embedded Systems Engineer

๐Ÿ“ŒMunich, Germany ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช

โฑ๏ธŽ full-time

๐Ÿง™โ€โ™‚๏ธ mid-level

Omnisent is pioneering scalable acoustic sensing powered by AI โ€” transforming audio into real-time intelligence.


We build hardware + software tailored for acoustic data, designed to extract insights from complex acoustic signals. Our proprietary ultra-low-power sonic devices capture and process acoustic signals in real-time, training what we call a Large Acoustic Model (LAM) โ€” our foundation model built to decode the rich, messy, and untapped world of non-speech audio.


Weโ€™re starting with the manufacturing industry, applying our tech to compressed air systems โ€” one of the most overlooked sources of energy waste. From there, weโ€™re expanding into energy, defense, space, and smart cities โ€” sectors where sound is the next frontier.


Tasks

Embedded Systems Design & Development



  • Architect, develop, and test embedded firmware to translate detection algorithms and operating procedures for our sensor platform (sensor + gateway) for embedded microcontrollers.

  • Design and implement software drivers, communication protocols (e.g., SPI, IยฒC, UART, CAN), and peripheral interfaces (including GPS, data storage, ADC) to ensure efficient device operation.

  • Optimize code for performance, data-compression, power efficiency, and reliability across various operating conditions and harsh environmental conditions.


Hardware & System Integration



  • Collaborate with hardware, mechanical, and signal processing engineers to integrate embedded systems with PCBs, sensor interfaces, and communication modules.

  • Design and implement test routines to validate the reliability and responsiveness of the sensors in-field at our pilot's facilities.

  • Support the prototyping process by refining hardware/software integration during rapid product iterations.


Debugging, Testing & Documentation



  • Lead debugging efforts using tools such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and in-circuit debuggers; identify and resolve integration issues to ensure robust performance.

  • Prepare and document test procedures, results, and revisions during the system lifecycle.


Cross-Functional Collaboration & Continuous Improvement



  • Work closely with electronic, AI, and mechanical engineers to iterate on system improvements and adapt to evolving project requirements.

  • Contribute to developing best practices and design documentation, ensuring that knowledge is continuously shared among teams.

  • Assist in coordinating with research labs and third-party test facilities to validate findings and translate research into practical embedded solutions.


Requirements

Basic Qualifications:



  • Bachelorโ€™s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Embedded Systems, or a related field, or 2+ years of relevant industry experience.

  • 2+ years of experience in embedded systems design, firmware development, or hardware/software integration.

  • Proficiency in embedded C/C++ programming, and familiarity with real-time operating systems (RTOS) and low-level hardware debugging tools.

  • Experience with integrated development environments (IDEs), version control systems (e.g., Git), and embedded development tools.

  • Strong analytical skills and a sound understanding of hardware interfacing, digital signal processing, and communication protocols.

  • Fluency in English

  • Valid EU work permit


Preferred Qualifications:



  • Masterโ€™s or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related technical discipline.

  • 4+ years of experience in developing embedded systems in industrial, automotive, or IoT applications.

  • Familiarity with low-power design techniques and optimizing for energy efficiency in embedded applications.

  • Experience working with modern connectivity solutions such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, LoRa, or cellular technologies in an embedded context.

  • Knowledge of compliance and certification requirements for electronic systems (e.g., FCC, CE, IP ratings).

  • Experience with hardware simulation and debugging tools, such as JTAG, SWD, or logic analyzers.

  • German language skills.


Join us in redefining how the world listens, understands, and responds through intelligent acoustic sensing.
