Job Description

Build the firmware behind our next generation of fixed dome cameras

Do you enjoy solving complex problems in embedded systems, from Linux kernel drivers to applications? Join the Fixed Dome Firmware team at Axis HQ in Lund, Sweden, and help develop the software behind our network cameras.

You’ll work on product development with colleagues in firmware and other disciplines, including image quality, electronics, mechanical design and production test. Your work will include adapting AXIS OS, Axis’ Linux-based operating system, and developing and investigating software across a large embedded codebase.

Your future team

You’ll join a dedicated team of firmware engineers who share responsibility for delivering product projects and improving how we work.

Collaboration is an important part of the role. You’ll have regular discussions within the team and work with other teams and stakeholders across Axis. We’re looking for someone who communicates clearly, listens to different perspectives, enjoys solving problems together and at the same time owns and drives their own work.

What You’ll Work On

• Develop and maintain firmware for network-connected fixed dome cameras.
• Adapt AXIS OS for new products.
• Analyse, design and implement software features for upcoming products.
• Investigate issues across the embedded system, which may include user-space software, kernel components and device drivers.
• Help assess and improve embedded system performance.
• Work with colleagues across firmware and other product-development disciplines.
• Share knowledge and contribute to how the team plans and delivers its work.

Who You Are

You’re a curious and collaborative engineer who enjoys tackling technical challenges and learning new things. You’re comfortable working in a changing environment, take responsibility for your work and communicate well with people from different disciplines.

You value openness, trust and teamwork, and you’re happy to contribute to an agile way of working.

We’d love to hear that you have

• Relevant experience in firmware or embedded software development, with a strong foundation in Linux-based systems, preferably +5 years
• Solid knowledge of Linux system programming, including user space, kernel space and device drivers.
• Experience programming in C and/or C++.
• Familiarity with continuous integration, Git and build tools.
• Experience working with agile methodologies.
• A bachelor’s or master’s degree in computer science, physics, mathematics, electrical engineering or a related field — or equivalent experience.
• Familiarity with AI-powered development tools.

It’s a plus if you also have

• Experience with debugging tools such as GDB and Valgrind.
• Scripting experience with shell, Python or Perl.
• Experience with low-level programming, for example for microcontrollers.
• Experience leading or facilitating agile teams.
