We are seeking a skilled Embedded Software / Firmware Engineer to join our team for a challenging project involving the migration of legacy C code to modern C++ and transitioning to STM32-based platforms. This role requires a deep understanding of embedded systems, object-oriented design, and microcontroller development.

Key Skills Required:

• Embedded C/C++ Development : Strong hands-on experience with both C and C++ in embedded systems environments.
• Legacy Code Refactoring : Proven experience in migrating and refactoring legacy C code to modern, maintainable C++ using object-oriented principles.
• Microcontroller Experience : Familiarity with both Atmel and STM32 microcontrollers, with an emphasis on migration between these platforms.
• Embedded Systems Architecture : A solid understanding of both software and hardware architecture in embedded systems.
• Debugging & Integration : Expertise in debugging, optimizing, and integrating embedded software with real hardware.
• Collaboration with Hardware Teams : Strong ability to work alongside hardware engineers for testing, validation, and troubleshooting.
• Legacy Code Migration : The existing C codebase needs to be restructured into modern, maintainable C++ to ensure long-term scalability and reliability.
• Platform Migration : Transitioning software from Atmel-based hardware to STM32 while addressing platform-specific requirements.
• Improved Software Architecture : Designing a more modular, object-oriented architecture to enhance maintainability and scalability.
• Collaboration : Close collaboration with hardware teams, leading to increased onsite presence as the project evolves.
• Efficiency : Risk of inefficiencies if the initial architecture is not structured correctly, making early planning crucial.

Responsibilities:

• Refactor and migrate legacy embedded C code to modern C++ with an object-oriented approach.
• Design and implement new software architecture in C++ for better maintainability and scalability.
• Port and adapt software to new STM32-based hardware, ensuring compatibility and optimization.
• Collaborate with hardware engineers for testing, validation, and troubleshooting during the integration process.
• Debug, optimize, and ensure system stability, addressing any performance bottlenecks.
• Support the final product validation and integration efforts, ensuring the software meets all quality standards.
• Based in Germany with part-time onsite presence required, increasing over time as the project progresses.
