Is this helpful?
You work 80-100% in Zug or partially remote
This position offers you
- As a Senior Embedded Software Engineer, you develop bare-metal firmware on STM32 (ARM Cortex‑M0+/M4/M7) in C/C++
- You perform hardware bring-up and commissioning of new boards (clock, reset, boot, peripheral checks, diagnostics)
- Your tasks include implementing and maintaining drivers (e.g., GPIO, I2C, SPI, UART, CAN, USB, ADC, PWM, DMA, interrupts)
- Additionally, you optimize in the areas of low power, timing, watchdog, and robustness (brown-out, reset causes, error scenarios)
- You conduct debugging with SWD/JTAG, trace, and measurement tools (oscilloscope/logic analyzer)
- You create production and test functions (self-tests, hardware tests, factory mode, logging/diagnostics) and take care of documentation (interfaces, state machines, boot concept) and code quality (reviews, tests)
- You maintain and extend CMake build scripts
- You cooperate closely with developers, architects, and product owners in a SAFe environment
You bring the following for the position
- A completed degree in electrical engineering or a comparable education forms the basis of your qualification
- You have very good knowledge of embedded C (pointers, memory layout, interrupts, timing, register access)
- You have experience with STM32 (e.g., STM32CubeIDE HAL/LL or register-based) and ARM Cortex‑M startup/linker
- Confidence in reading datasheets, reference manuals, and circuit diagrams as well as a pronounced debugging routine (HardFault analysis, stack/heap issues, race conditions, EMI/signal topics) are part of your skills
- Ideally, you have experience with RTOS (e.g., ThreadX) and embedded Linux
- Experience with protocols/stacks (Modbus, CANopen, BLE via co-processor, TCP/IP via module) and initial contact with MISRA, unit tests, HIL/SIL approaches as well as CI for firmware belong to your profile
- You have basic knowledge of EMC/ESD-compliant design understanding and enjoy working with layout/hardware teams
- Furthermore, you have experience working with agile methods such as Scrum or SAFe
- Excellent language skills in German and English are mandatory
