📌Linz, Austria 🇦🇹
⏱︎ full-time
🧙♂️ mid-level
Your territory
As part of our Factory & Tools team, you will:
- Take ownership of a growing set of tools that power our Firmware development and factory workflows — from idea to hands-on implementation
- Act as the product owner for all Firmware tools — identifying next features, prioritizing improvements, and ensuring each tool delivers real value to our teams
- Collaborate with external partners (e.g. on the Factory Test Tool) to keep our production lines running smoothly
- Monitor and analyze KPIs to identify areas for improvement and implement data-driven solutions
- Own and develop our hardware-in-the-loop setup for Firmware CI/CD — using smart, creative testing approaches to further boost Firmware quality
- Build and maintain test infrastructure to validate tracker performance, streamline processes, and support Firmware reliability
- Collaborate with Firmware, Backend, Tech Support, QA, and external partners while independently driving projects forward
- Bring in your fresh ideas to make Tractive better - you’ll never hear the phrase “...because that’s how we’ve always done things”
- Continuously grow personally and professionally, take ownership of areas that show your potential, and attend workshops which help you get to the next level
Your profile
Key requirements:
- Proficiency in scripting languages (e.g. Python, Bash) for integration, automation, and data handling
- Experience with C++ and CI/CD systems (preferably Jenkins)
- Familiarity with manufacturing processes is a plus
- Strong problem-solving skills across the stack — from hardware to firmware and factory test software
- Good grasp of agile practices, Git, code reviews, and software quality
- Very good English skills
- Valid work permit for Austria
- Willingness to travel occasionally (1–2 times per year) for factory visits
Does this sound like you?
- A self-starter with strong attention to detail and a deep curiosity for hardware and gadgets
- Engaged, hands-on, and ready to take initiative
- An effective communicator who thrives in a collaborative environment
- Passionate about technology, especially in areas like IoT
- Excited to work in Austria alongside an outstanding team
Senior Embedded Software Engineer
@ Embedd 
What we're looking for
At embedd.it, we power hardware-software integration in embedded devices. We turn fragmented semiconductor chip data into configurable digital twins, then deterministically generate code, tests, and documentation – making integration faster, cheaper, and resilient to supply chain shocks.
We’re looking for a true legend – someone with abstract thinking and deep expertise in low-level software development. You’ll build vendor-agnostic tooling for MCU and peripheral integration to solve hardware-software integration once and for all. We work at the intersection of embedded systems, code generation, compilers, and machine learning. It’s your chance to help redefine how low-level development is done.
Responsibilities
- Drive the architecture of the driver structures and system layout
- Define scalable patterns for cross-architectural integration across bare-metal, Zephyr, Linux, and other environments
- Deconstruct complex SoC device trees and translate hardware descriptions into structured internal models for automated reasoning
- Partner with the ML team to shape data and annotation models for AI-driven data-extraction tooling
Qualifications
- 5+ years of experience in embedded systems development, including bare-metal and RTOS-based systems
- Proficiency in C/C++
- Familiarity with firmware configuration, SoC bring-up, and system-level debugging
- Hands-on experience with code generation tools, or low-level compiler/decompiler/emulator technologies
- Strong background in embedded toolchains: compilers, linkers, debuggers, and build systems
- Python or scripting for automation and tooling is a plus
- Experience with functional-safety standards is a plus
Why embedd.it?
- Dynamic, venture-backed team of engineers challenging the status quo 🚀
- Work at the intersection of embedded systems, code generators, compilers, and ML 🤖
- Unusual challenges requiring out-of-the-box abstract thinking 🧠
- Competitive compensation: cash + equity 💰
- Remote work possible 🌍
About Us
embedd.it is a UK-based startup reinventing embedded development. Our platform transforms unstructured semiconductor data into structured digital twins, enabling automatic generation of drivers, tests, and documentation. We're building a single, traceable source of truth to make integration fast, vendor-agnostic, and future-proof.
