Embedded Systems & R&D Engineer

• You will develop and maintain embedded software, mainly C/C++, eventually Python.
• You will work with microcontrollers and embedded hardware at a system level.
• You will integrate, test and debug hardware and software systems.
• You will contribute to R&D projects, prototypes and technical improvements.
• You will support technical analysis and problem-solving.
• You will document designs, tests and technical solutions., At S[&]T we contribute to a safer life on earth by translating space data into valuable and actionable insights. We oversee data from instruments to application, and apply our expertise within our software frameworks, information products and consultancy.

Our society relies on space and scientific instruments for climate change monitoring, navigation, defence and national security, and other crucial services we all use in our daily lives. These instruments produce an enormous quantity of complex data, and our goal is to unlock its value.

We have more than 20 years of experience working on instrument calibration, the creation of data quality monitoring tools, the development of real-time data processing frameworks, and the development of application-specific algorithms. With this, we help organisations, governments and industries to strengthen their information position and thereby improve their decision making. We focus on the following domains: Space & Science, Defence & Security, Environment & Sustainability, and High-Tech Consulting.

• You have an academic degree (BSc or MSc) in Embedded Systems, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science or another relevant domain.
• You have experience with embedded software development in C/C++.
• You have basic knowledge of electronics and the interaction hardware-software.
• You are analytical, precise and solution-oriented.
• You are eager to work within the high-tech industry, in defence or drone-related systems.
• You are proficient in English. Speaking Dutch is a nice-to-have.

It's an advantage if you have:

• Knowledge of embedded communication protocols (e.g. SPI, I²C, CAN, UART).
• Experience with testing in lab or R&D environments.
• Affinity with system integration or mechatronics.
