• Write clear, testable code with unit tests and continuous integration
• Design and maintain interfaces to other system components and devices
• Contribute to our CI/CD pipelines and development environment as part of the team’s ownership

• Experience in C++ and embedded software on Linux (Mid senior)

• Experience with multithreading (std::thread and related concurrency primitives)
• Familiarity with Yocto-based systems
• Comfortable with Git-based workflows
• Fluency in Swedish and English, spoken and written

It’s a plus if you have

• experience with Google Protocol Buffers
• knowledge of control theory (control loops, feedback systems)
• experience in embedded and low-level software development and feel comfortable working close to the hardware, including using tools like an oscilloscope
• experience working close to the OS (Linux device integration, platform-near development)
• hands-on experience with CI/CD tooling
• domain knowledge in pressure/flow measurement (e.g., ventilator or anesthesia systems)

Practical details

• Position based in Solna, Stockholm
