This position offers the opportunity to work with cutting-edge technologies and contribute to the development of innovative products. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in C/C++ programming, experience with STM32 microcontrollers, and a solid understanding of embedded development toolchains and CI/CD systems. If you are passionate about embedded systems and enjoy solving complex technical challenges, we encourage you to apply.

Key Responsibilities

• Development and maintenance of embedded software in C/C++ for microcontroller-based systems
• Programming and configuration of STM32 microcontrollers (Cortex-M0+, M4, M33)
• Implementation of device drivers, peripheral interfaces, and communication protocols (UART, SPI, IC, etc.)
• Adaptation and optimization of existing product software
• Software integration and testing on target hardware
• Conducting Unit-Tests and Code Reviews
• Driving and contributing to the test strategy
• Design and maintenance of the development ecosystem and CI/CD pipelines using GitLab/Jenkins
• Setup, maintenance, and continuous improvement of embedded toolchains (compilers, linkers, debuggers, build systems)
• Optimization and integration of embedded IDEs (e.g., JetBrains CLion, VS Code) with appropriate plugins
• Evaluation and documentation of tools, and creation of development guidelines
• Collaboration with cross-functional teams (mechanics, electronics, testing, hardware)
• Future outlook: Participation in setting up a Linux-based toolchain and training colleagues
  
  

Required Skills & Qualifications

• Degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent qualification
• Strong proficiency in C and C++, preferably in embedded software development
• Experience in STM32 microcontroller families (especially Cortex-M0+, M4, M33)
• Experience with embedded development toolchains, IDEs (CLion, VS Code), and CI/CD systems
• Familiarity with Unit-Test frameworks (e.g., Google Test)
• Solid understanding of schematics, technical datasheets, and reference manuals
• Strong proficiency in Linux OS
• Open-minded, structured, independent working style and strong team player
• Good communication skills in English (German is a plus)
• Experience with RTOS such as Segger embOS (must have) and Zephyr RTOS (nice to have)
• Knowledge of interfaces & communication protocols such as CAN, IO-Link, Modbus (TCP), EtherCAT / PROFINET / OPC UA, IC, SPI, UART
