You'll be part of a smart, hardworking, professional, and creative team in a friendly, inclusive, multicultural, and high-performing setting. We take our work seriously, support each other, and genuinely enjoy working together.

ABOUT THE ROLE

You’ll design and develop custom embedded firmware that translates customer requirements into reliable, operator-friendly applications for Aarcomm’s radio remote control systems.





Working alongside experienced firmware developers and our Field Application Engineer (FAE), you’ll contribute throughout the development lifecycle, from software design and coding to debugging, testing, and documentation.

Our team is also modernizing its codebase to improve architecture, portability, and maintainability. You’ll have the opportunity to contribute to these improvements, strengthen our automated testing capabilities, and help us deliver customer solutions more efficiently.

ABOUT YOU

You’re a thoughtful, hands-on developer who writes clean, maintainable code and understands how software behaves in resource-constrained embedded systems. You can identify architectural improvements, troubleshoot complex issues, and explain your technical decisions clearly.

You enjoy collaborating, sharing ideas, and learning from others. You’re curious about new tools and approaches, including AI-assisted development, and open to exploring how they can support your work. You bring sound engineering judgment, a commitment to quality, and an understanding of the importance of reliable, safety-focused code when working with industrial equipment.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

Develop Firmware

- Design, develop, and maintain custom embedded applications in C for ARM and MSP430 microcontrollers, including FreeRTOS-based applications where applicable.




- Translate customer requirements into reliable, safety-focused code in collaboration with the FAE.
- Document firmware design, software architecture, and customer applications.

Test, Review & Improve

- Review colleagues’ code, provide constructive feedback, and identify opportunities to improve software architecture and code quality.
- Contribute to continuous integration, automated builds, unit testing and regression testing.
- Help modernize the codebase by improving modularity, reducing tightly coupled components, and increasing code portability.
- Use AI-assisted tools to accelerate development, refactoring, testing, and documentation while independently verifying results.
- Debug firmware using tools such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, logic analyzers, and protocol sniffers.
- Engage in design discussions, identifying potential risks and safety gaps early in development.
- Work closely with colleagues to continuously improve firmware architecture, development processes, and documentation standards.
- Stay up to date on emerging technologies and industry best practices to enhance product performance and reliability.

WHAT YOU BRING TO THE TABLE

- Strong, hands-on embedded software development experience in C, ideally 5+ years.
- Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to explain technical decisions and contribute constructively to code and design reviews.
- Solid understanding of software architecture, data structures, and clean, maintainable code.
- Knowledge of microcontrollers and hardware interfaces such as I2C, SPI, UART, and USB, including embedded timing and m
