Junior Embedded Software Engineer

Stellenbeschreibung:

Junior Embedded Engineer – Software & Firmware Development (m/f/d)

At Dentsply Sirona, we develop world-leading solutions for dental and oral health. To strengthen our interdisciplinary development team, we are looking for a motivated Junior Embedded Engineer (m/f/d) with an interest in embedded software and/or firmware development.
Whether your strengths lie in application-level development on Embedded Linux or in low-level firmware and control systems, we offer you the opportunity to grow your skills in a hands-on, innovative environment focused on modern medical devices and cloud-connected technologies.

Your Responsibilities

Depending on your focus (software or firmware), you will work on tasks such as:

Application-Level Embedded Software Development:

Develop workflows and algorithms in C++ for our embedded Linux systems

Implement and integrate cloud-connected features (DS Core)

Write and extend module/component tests

Participate in team meetings, code reviews, and continuous improvement of development processes

Document concepts and implementations according to internal standards

Firmware & Control Systems Development:

Design and optimize control systems for medical devices (e.g., drives, sensors, instrument control)

Select and implement appropriate control strategies in coordination with hardware and software teams

Use model-based development (e.g., MATLAB/Simulink) for simulation and validation

Collaborate with hardware, software, and QA teams

Document control concepts and firmware implementations

Your Profile

Degree (Bachelor, Master, PhD) in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Control Engineering, Automation Technology, or a related field

Some experience in embedded systems development — either in C++ for Linux-based applications or low-level firmware with a focus on control systems

Ideally, you bring knowledge in one or more of the following areas:
• Embedded C++ / Embedded Linux
• Digital control systems and model-based design (e.g., MATLAB/Simulink)
• Sensor and actuator integration, drive control

Strong interest in embedded systems and real-world physical processes

Team player with a structured and curious approach to learning

Good communication skills in English and German (written and spoken)

What We Offer

A supportive, agile development team

Opportunities to grow in both application-level and low-level embedded development

A technologically exciting environment with modern tools and processes

Cross-functional collaboration – from hardware to cloud integration
