Senior Embedded Software Engineer

At Vention, we’re not just writing code—we’re solving real-world problems with embedded solutions. You’ll work on tech that matters, from energy transition to health innovation, building the brains behind connected products. One day you're deep into nRF firmware, the next you're debugging a board with an oscilloscope.

Education

Electrical Engineering / Computer Science / similar

As a Senior Embedded Software Engineer you play a key role in turning complex hardware into smart, connected products. You take full ownership of the embedded software lifecycle: from design and development to integration, testing, and optimization. You collaborate in multidisciplinary teams and work directly with our partners to deliver real, working solutions—fast.

Our culture is one of experimentation and iteration. We build quickly, learn even faster, and aren’t afraid to make mistakes.

What you’ll be doing

  • Develop & Integrate embedded software using C/C++, ensuring seamless performance across systems.
  • Collaborate closely with hardware, software, and design engineers to bring prototypes to life—fast.
  • Test & Validate code rigorously to ensure reliability and robustness, using simulations and real-world trials.
  • Iterate & Improve by proposing enhancements that boost performance, reduce complexity, or enable scalability.
  • Take Ownership of deliverables and work autonomously within a collaborative, transparent environment.

Who we’re looking for

  • A degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or similar (BSc/MSc).
  • 4+ years of experience in embedded systems programming (C/C++).
  • Proficiency in software architecture and microcontroller platforms (e.g. LPC, nRF, STM32).
  • Hands-on mentality with hardware and debugging tools like oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, etc.
  • Curiosity, pragmatism, and a collaborative mindset.
  • Fluent in English.

Why you want to work here

We’re not your average tech company. We’re a team of Ventioneers—engineers who love building things that work, fast.
Working at Vention means:

  • Speed & Impact: Build working prototypes in a day. Deliver value in weeks—not years.
  • Togetherness: We iterate with customers and teammates, always as one team.
  • Freedom to Grow: You own your path—personal development is encouraged and facilitated.
  • Flexibility: You set your schedule and location—results matter more than hours.
  • Unlimited Vacation Days: Recharge when you need to, we trust you to know when to take break.
  • Perks: Great office lunches, Friday beers, quarterly team events, and the legendary FRANSdag.
