Do you enjoy writing software that interacts closely with hardware – and seeing your code become part of real, high-performance products?
We are looking for an Embedded Software Engineer to join our R&D team in Lund. This is an opportunity to work hands-on with embedded C/C++, Embedded Linux, RTOS, networking and low-level software, in close collaboration with experienced hardware, FPGA and system engineers.
You will be part of the development of advanced industrial products where reliability, performance and robust software matter.
The Role
As an Embedded Software Engineer, you will contribute throughout the product development lifecycle – from software architecture and low-level implementation to integration, verification and release.
You will work close to the hardware and collaborate daily with software, hardware, FPGA and system engineers. The role offers a mix of hands-on development, problem solving, debugging and system-level thinking.
Your responsibilities will include:
Develop low-level software and embedded system components
Work with Embedded Linux and RTOS in resource-constrained and performance-critical systems
Develop and integrate networking functionality in embedded systems
Build, customize and maintain embedded Linux
Collaborate closely with hardware, FPGA and system engineers during development and integration
Debug complex software/hardware issues and troubleshoot at system level
Contribute to automated testing, development tools and continuous improvement of software processes
About You
We are looking for an engineer who enjoys understanding how things work all the way down to the system level. You are comfortable working close to hardware and are motivated by solving complex technical problems. At the same time, you are passionate about agile development and helping the team become better, and enjoy combining technical depth with an interest in Scrum, methodology and team development.
You likely have:
A degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience
Professional experience in embedded software development
Strong programming skills in C and C++
Experience with Embedded Linux and/or RTOS
Experience with low-level programming, embedded networking and debugging
Experience developing secure embedded software and applying cybersecurity requirements in accordance with IEC 62443
A structured, analytical and solution-oriented approach to problem solving
Good communication skills in English
It's a Plus If You Have
Experience with Rust in embedded or systems programming
FPGA development experience
Experience developing automated tests or automated test systems
Experience with CI/CD, continuous integration or software quality processes
Experience working with industrial, power electronics, control systems or other hardware-near applications
Why Join Us?
At Comsys, you won't be developing software in isolation. You will work at the intersection of software, electronics, FPGA and system engineering, contributing to products that solve real industrial challenges.
You will have the opportunity to take ownership, work across the technology stack and develop your expertise in embedded systems, Linux, real-time software and hardware integration.
If you are an Embedded Software Engineer who enjoys C/C++, Linux, RTOS, low-level development and working close to hardware, we'd like to hear from you.
