Job description
In this role, you can be based either at our Innovation Centre in Augsburg, Germany, or at our headquarters in Ballerup, Denmark. Regardless of your location, you will be part of one global Embedded Software team, collaborating closely with colleagues across sites.
At Ambu, we operate in a hybrid working model. While some flexibility for remote work is possible, this position is primarily office-based and requires regular on-site collaboration, with approximately three days per week in the office.
You will join a diverse team of developers and test engineers working on a modular embedded platform that connects closely with both hardware and application software. Our way of working is open, collaborative, and agile - we value knowledge sharing, curiosity, and a willingness to learn and grow together as a team.
Your role and responsibilities
As an Embedded Software Developer, you will contribute to the development of high-quality software solutions that meet our standards for performance, safety, and reliability. You will work with technologies such as Embedded Linux, Yocto, C, and C++, while collaborating closely with your colleagues to shape and improve our solutions.
Your tasks will include:
- Developing and maintaining our custom Linux distribution, firmware, and drivers
- Collaborating with the embedded team to ensure strong interfaces towards hardware and application software
- Supporting documentation efforts to meet medical device and cybersecurity standards
