R&D Embedded Software Engineer

The Role As an R&D Embedded Software Engineer, you will work on the embedded software platform supporting our next-generation communication systems. You will work across embedded Linux, C/C++, Linux kernel development, FPGA integration, networking and automated development infrastructure . The role involves both developing new functionality and solving complex integration and system-level challenges. You will collaborate closely with engineers across software, hardware and R&D, giving you the opportunity to influence both the technology and how it is developed. Key Responsibilities Integrate external components, libraries, drivers, device-tree elements and related dependencies into our internal embedded platform Develop and maintain Linux kernel and user-space drivers Support the integration of FPGA-based processing into embedded systems Configure, build and maintain embedded Linux systems Develop and maintain CI/CD pipelines for automated image building, testing and deployment to target devices Work with Linux networking and system-level integration Investigate and resolve complex hardware/software issues Use debugging tools such as GDB and JTAG Contribute to unit testing and automated test frameworks Configure, compile and maintain Linux kernels Contribute to system-level technical documentation Collaborate with software, hardware, FPGA and R&D engineers Technical Qualifications We are looking for someone with a strong foundation in embedded software and an interest in low-level systems. You have: Strong programming skills in C/C++ Good experience with Bash scripting Solid experience with Linux-based embedded systems Experience with Linux kernel and driver development Experience with Make, CMake or similar build systems Experience with Buildroot, Yocto or similar embedded Linux distributions Experience integrating FPGA-based systems with embedded software Experience configuring and compiling the Linux kernel Good understanding of Linux networking Experience with debugging tools such as GDB and/or JTAG Understanding of unit testing and automated testing frameworks Experience with Git and modern software development workflows Experience with Kuiper Linux or similar embedded Linux distributions is an advantage. What We Value You are a technically curious and analytical engineer who enjoys understanding how systems work at a deeper level. You are comfortable working on problems where the solution is not always obvious and enjoy moving between software, hardware and system-level challenges. We are looking for someone who: Takes ownership and works independently Has strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail Enjoys investigating complex technical challenges Is proactive and eager to learn new technologies Can turn technical concepts and research into practical solutions Communicates clearly and collaborates effectively with other engineers Is comfortable working in a fast-paced R&D environment Good level of spoken/written English is required. Norwegian language skills are an advantage. Why Join Us? This is an opportunity to work on advanced technology where engineering performance really matters . You will not simply be maintaining an established product. You will contribute to the development of new technology and work on challenging problems across embedded software, FPGA, networking and wireless communication.
