Embedded Software Developer Intern
We are looking for a motivated and open-minded Intern Embedded Software Developer to join our DAS EMEIA KDC engineering team. This is an entry-level position designed especially for final-year university students.
You will work on firmware development for embedded devices. The role will mainly involve supporting the development and validation of new concepts and prototypes, followed by contributing to their evolution into production-ready products.
Familiarity with Python or similar scripting languages is a strong advantage, especially for developing tools, automating workflows, and validating concepts or prototypes.
If you enjoy making LEDs blink while running sophisticated cryptographic protocols, figuring out why something almost works, and writing clean low-level code - you’ll fit right in!
What You’ll Be Doing
-
Writing embedded C code for real hardware
-
Developing firmware in both RTOS (Zephyr) and bare-metal environments
-
Debugging with logic analyzers
-
Collecting performance statistics from hardware
-
Writing small python tools to automate work and process data
What You Should Know
-
How to write C for microcontrollers
-
Theory of microcontrollers operation
-
Principles of communication protocols (UART, SPI, I2C)
-
Understand source code management concepts like git
-
Some python for scripting and tooling
Who You Are
-
Open-minded and eager to learn
-
Not afraid to ask questions
-
Interested in exploring more about cryptography
-
Comfortable reading datasheets
-
Excited about low-level systems
-
You’ve built something (personal or academic project counts)
-
Comfortable communicating in English, both written and spoken
No prior job experience required - we care more about curiosity and mindset than years on paper.
What We Offer
-
Mentorship from experienced embedded engineers
-
Hands-on work with real hardware products
-
Opportunity to grow into mid-level embedded developer
-
Supportive and innovation-driven work environment
