Embedded Software Architect

As an Embedded Software Architect at Sintecs, you will leverage your expertise to lead complex engineering projects in a key role within the software team. Your work will require advanced software architecture skills, the ability to communicate effectively with colleagues, and a strong focus on product development. You'll need to clearly articulate technical concepts and potential challenges while working independently to find optimal solutions. Your tasks and key responsibilities:

• Serve as a senior member of the software team.
• Design software architectures for embedded systems.
• Oversee the embedded software development process to ensure reliability and efficiency.
• Assist in the implementation of software for embedded systems when necessary.
• Provide estimates and break down work for sales support, as well as develop detailed specifications.
• Consult with clients on new features and architecture designs.
• Act as a catalyst for innovation within the software team.
• Potentially fulfill the role of Software Product Owner.

Technological Highlights of Our Projects:

• Bare metal 8-bit MCU firmware with predefined requirements.
• Low-level board bring-up, validation, and production test firmware.
• Embedded Linux system development (Bootloader/BSP/deployment).
• ARM Cortex-M MCU projects using RTOS like Zephyr.
• High-assurance microkernel firmware for Cortex-A multi-processor projects using the Scrum methodology.
• ARM Trusted Firmware, U-Boot, Linux kernel, Yocto.
• Secure device provisioning and deployment.
• Battery management systems, industrial edge systems, multi-gigabit networking devices, and security from both hardware and software perspectives.

What defines our Software Department:

• Most of the software is written in C/C++ with Python as our preferred scripting language. We write FPGA software in VHDL.
• We embrace Gherkin and Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) using the Python 'behave' tool.
• We support open source and regularly work with the embedded Linux firmware stack (U-Boot, ARM Trusted Firmware, Linux) with Yocto as our standard tool for building images and BSPs.
• Jenkins and Bitbucket power our Continuous Integration pipeline, and we use Youtrack for issue reporting and tracking.
• Many of our more complex products involve networking, so solid knowledge in this area is a plus. We also prioritize security, including PSA certification, so experience in this field is highly valued.

• Completed Higher Vocational or University education in (Technical) Computer Science or Electrical Engineering is preferred.
• You have a clear vision of how software development can create value for the company, and you're committed to guiding others towards that vision.
• You're a natural team connector, creating a supportive and cohesive environment for colleagues.
• Strong proficiency in C/C++ and Python.
• A minimum of 5 years of relevant experience.
• A practical, customer-oriented mindset.
• Experience with digital electronics.
