You are part of multidisciplinary teams, contributing to systems where hardware, software and connectivity come together in demanding industrial environments. What can you expect? Working through Nobleo Explorers means contributing to challenging embedded and IoT projects in high-tech and industrial environments, where technology and real-world application meet. You take end-to-end ownership of embedded software, from low-level drivers to application logic, and collaborate closely with hardware, system and cloud teams to deliver integrated solutions. Long-term projects provide stability, while the technical content ensures continuous variety and development. You become part of an internationally diverse engineering team with an open culture that values collaboration and quality. Your responsibilities + Develop embedded software for connected systems- Design, implement, and maintain embedded software in C/C++ for connected products and machines. You work close to the hardware, integrating sensors, actuators, and communication interfaces in IoT and high-tech systems. + Work across bare-metal, RTOS, and Linux environments- You develop software on microcontrollers using Zephyr or FreeRTOS, as well as on Embedded Linux platforms. You understand when to use which approach and how they interact in larger systems. + Own software from concept to production- From early architecture and prototype bring-up to testing, debugging, and release. You take responsibility for software quality, performance, security, and maintainability throughout the product lifecycle. + Solve challenging system-level problems- Real-time behavior. Concurrency. Power management. Connectivity. Debugging on target hardware. You tackle issues that only appear in real, deployed systems. + Collaborate across disciplines- You work closely with electronics engineers, system architects, and cloud or backend teams. You translate system requirements into robust software and provide technical input during architectural decisions.
