About this job

We are currently looking for a Embedded Systems & R&D Engineer to join the team in the Zwolle Area.

Do you want to contribute to our safety?

As an Embedded Systems & R&D Engineer, you will be focusing on Unmanned Systems, working on advanced systems such as drones and specialized technical equipment all the way through the project – from concept and prototype to tested and integrated solutions. You will contribute on the embedded software development and system integration, in close collaboration with hardware and R&D Engineers. Hands-on testing and debugging are part of the role, with a strong emphasis on development, innovation and system reliability rather than service or maintenance work.

Main responsibilities

  • 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.

Requirements

  • 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.

Our story

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.

Taking the R&D Journey Together
Research and development projects are usually long-term investments in complex systems involving stringent requirements, formalized relationship structures and interfaces, and highly impactful project phases and team scaling. It is important to have an experienced partner that is in it for the long haul. At S[&]T, we are relationship driven, and think not only about the first steps toward partnership, but the long-term win-win-win. We have flexible methods of partnering, and are able to support R&D via projects, personnel and products, depending on which method provides the best solution. Our open communication style and people-driven methods create smooth interfaces and ensure that we are a dependable partner through thick and thin.

Meant to be at S[&]T
At S[&]T, relationships always come first, and we treat our employees like we would like to be treated. We understand that smart people need flexibility, challenging projects, open communication and a motivating career path. If you would like to choose your own adventure when it comes to building a role that is right for you, we are here to support you along the way. Our flat structure and direct connections in a variety of R&D settings provides you with plenty of opportunity, while we also work hard to ensure that we create a fun environment along the way.
