The role is a senior embedded software position on the sensor software team, building and maintaining product software for medical devices such as those used in operating rooms and intensive care units.

You will work with agile software teams and with hardware, manufacturing line and principal engineers, and make sure the software meets the applicable requirements and supports regulatory compliance.

The job is based in Vallila, Helsinki, at a site of about 700 staff across engineering, R&D and manufacturing. The site focuses on wearable patient monitoring and covers installed base support, product development, advanced manufacturing and innovation.

Responsibilities

• Design and implement embedded components for hardware control, real-time sensor data processing, device drivers, peripherals, RTOS and communication protocols.
• Build and maintain software and its automated tests, mainly on Windows, with some work on Linux-based tools and environments when needed.
• Apply Agile and Lean practices across the development cycle, covering security, scalability, documentation, and verification and validation to medical device standards.
• Create software designs based on sound object-oriented principles and suitable design patterns, and turn system designs into clear class and flow diagrams.
• Write robust, high-quality code that is efficient, power-optimised, testable and easy to maintain.
• Lead and carry out hands-on functional and performance testing, troubleshooting and debugging on target hardware.

• Proven ability to fold AI-assisted tools into everyday development while keeping software quality, cybersecurity, traceability and regulatory compliance intact.
• Strong C++ skills, with deep experience in object-oriented design and design patterns.
• Working knowledge of Git, code review tools and continuous integration.
• Experience developing and automating tests in Python 3 on target hardware, and testing in simulated environments.
• Hands-on experience debugging and troubleshooting hardware and embedded systems using logic analysers, oscilloscopes and voltage and current measurements, with strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Excellent written and spoken English.
• Legal authorisation to work in Finland, and ability to work at the Vallila office at least 3 days a week.
• Desired: familiarity with regulated industries and quality management systems, such as those for medical devices, and their processes.
