About the role

Do you want to be part of our Trondheim-based R&D team working to achieve zero loss of lives, injuries, or damage caused by fire and gas? We’re looking for a motivated and creative Embedded Software Developerwith strong programming skills to help design reliable, high-performance, and safety-critical fire alarm systems.

You will be part of a team developing modular software components that run on both embedded devices and PC-based applications:

• ThreadX and Linux are used as the primary operating systems.

• C and Rust are the main programming languages across embedded modules.

• Rust is also used for PC-based applications that support configuration, testing, and simulation.

This role gives you the opportunity to work across the full development cycle of embedded systems --- from low-level device integration to tools and interfaces that support configuration, testing, operation, and service.

Your Responsibilities

As an Embedded Software Engineer you will:

• Design and develop reliable, high-performance software for safety-critical embedded systems.

• Implement modules in C and Rust for microcontrollers running RTOS (ThreadX) and Linux[1]based platforms.

• Work with system-level programming, focusing on robustness, efficiency, and maintainability.

• Contribute to PC-based applications in Rust for configuration, simulation, and testing.

• Integrate and test software with microcontrollers, hardware interfaces, and communication protocols.

• Collaborate closely with product managers, system engineers, and fellow developers to ensure end-to-end quality.

• Use CI/CD pipelines follow agile processes with tools like JIRA.

• Perform code reviews, write automated tests, and contribute to continuous improvement of development practices.

• Stay up to date on embedded development practices, RTOS programming, and evolving programming languages such as Rust.

• Actively explore and apply AI tools to improve productivity, code quality, and testing efficiency.

What we’re looking for

You combine strong technical expertise with a focus on building robust, efficient, and safety[1]critical embedded systems. You enjoy solving low-level challenges while also contributing to tools that improve development, testing, and operation.

Must-have qualifications:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Cybernetics, Electronics or similar field.

• Strong programming skills in C, C++ and/or Rust.

• Experience with RTOS (ThreadX or similar) and microcontroller development.

• Solid understanding of Linux environments and system programming concepts (e.g., memory management, IPC, TCP/IP).

• Experience with CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins and version control with Git.

• Familiarity with Agile methodologies and collaboration tools such as JIRA.

• Strong problem-solving skills and ability to write clean, maintainable, and testable code.

Nice to have:

• Experience with safety-critical or regulated systems.

• Knowledge of hardware/software integration and debugging with oscilloscopes, logic analysers, or similar tools.

• Experience developing simulation or configuration tools.

• Familiarity with applying AI tools to support development, testing, or documentation.

Personal qualities

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with attention to detail.

• Quality-focused and committed to building robust,reliable, and maintainable software.

• Effective communication and teamwork skills, able to collaborate across disciplines (hardware, systems, software).

• Self-driven, structured, and eager to learn new technologies and approaches.

• Passionate about software craftsmanship, continuous improvement, and staying up to date with modern development practices.

What we offer

• Meaningful work in a mission-driven company.

• Competitive salary and benefits.

• A supportive and inclusive work culture.

• 6th week of paid vacation.

• Free on-site car parking.

• Flexible working hours.

• Pension and insurance schemes.

• Opportunities for growth through courses, events, and mentoring.
