Job description

At Vention, we’re not just writing code; we’re solving real-world problems with embedded solutions. You’ll work on tech that matters, from energy transition to health innovation, building the brains behind connected products. One day you're deep into nRF firmware, the next you're debugging a board with an oscilloscope.

As a Embedded Software Engineer you play a key role in turning complex hardware into smart, connected products. You take full ownership of the embedded software lifecycle: from design and development to integration, testing, and optimization. You collaborate in multidisciplinary teams and work directly with our partners to deliver real, working solutions, fast. Our culture is one of experimentation and iteration. We build quickly, learn even faster, and aren’t afraid to make mistakes.

What you’ll be doing:

• Develop & Integrate embedded software using C, ensuring seamless performance across systems.

• Collaborate closely with hardware, software, and design engineers to bring prototypes to life, fast.

• Test & Validate code rigorously to ensure reliability and robustness, using simulations and real-world trials.

• Iterate & Improve by proposing enhancements that boost performance, reduce complexity, or enable scalability.

• Take Ownership of deliverables and work autonomously within a collaborative, transparent environment.

• A degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or similar (BSc/MSc).

• 4+ years of experience in embedded systems programming (C).

• Proficiency in software architecture and microcontroller platforms (e.g. nRF, STM32, LPC).

• Hands-on mentality with hardware and debugging tools like oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, etc.

• Curiosity, pragmatism, and a collaborative mindset.

• Fluent in English.

What’s in it for you?

• Be at the forefront of creating groundbreaking new products and innovations;

• Experience the full development cycle, from concept to production;

• Unlimited vacation days as long as we can count on you;

• Weekly, monthly and quarterly company gatherings including legendary team outings and celebrations.

• A well-equipped office at the High Tech Campus, sit-stand desks & healthy lunches.

• Pension scheme, commuting allowance, and access to shared cars for business trips.

Why join us?

At Vention, we combine speed, know-how, collaboration, and creativity to turn bold ideas into working prototypes and products. You’ll work in an environment where ownership, freedom, and responsibility go hand-in-hand. If you’re ready to bring our software team to the next level with senior-level expertise, shape processes, and deliver impactful technology, let’s talk!
