What You’ll Do :

Modulation Algorithms :

• Develop and optimize automatic modulation algorithms for pumps / fans.

Industrial Protocol Integration :

• Implement and manage Modbus RTU / TCP (multi-slave register handling), Profibus (inverter communication), and dynamic dictionaries for multiple inverter brands (ABB, Danfoss, Siemens, Wilo, Vacon, etc.).

Real-Time Firmware Development :

• Build FreeRTOS modules for data acquisition, task synchronization (semaphores / queues), health monitoring, and watchdog management.

Memory & Performance Optimization :

• Optimize stack, heap, and dynamic memory (ESP32 PSRAM); profile and debug using ESP-IDF tools.

Mathematical Computation :

• Parse and evaluate runtime functions (e.g., tinyexpr), perform binary searches for inverse solutions, handle multi-dimensional efficiency curves.

Collaboration :

• Work closely with hardware teams on integration and low-level debugging (JTAG, oscilloscope, logic analyzer).

Required Skills :

• 3+ years of embedded firmware development in C
• Deep knowledge of FreeRTOS and multi-threaded programming
• Experience with at least one industrial protocol (Modbus / Profibus / CANopen)
• Understanding of pump / motor control systems
• Low-level debugging, real-time system problem-solving, and rigorous testing mindset
• Optimization for constrained memory ( Ability to read and interpret technical inverter datasheets

What We Offer :

• Permanent contract
• 2 days per week remote work
• Free company canteen
• Be part of a diverse, dynamic, and innovation-driven team
• A clear and progressive career plan
• A real opportunity to work on a proprietary product with direct impact on energy efficiency and industrial sustainability
