Heimdall Power is a growing Norwegian tech company established in 2016. With closer to 70 employees across Norway, Europe and the US we produce a Neuron, our sensor sollution often reffered to as "magic ball", that exceptionally combines hardware, firmware and software into one product. The purpose of the Neuron is to bring greater awareness and intelligence to power grids — making them safer, smarter, and more responsive. Our solution strengthen the grid, the people who operate it, and everyone who depends on it. We are a proud contributor to the world's green energy transition. Our unique offering combines software and sensors to increase capacity in existing power grids by up to 30%. This technology enables integration of more renewable energy and electrification of consumption. By making better use of what we already have, we reduce carbon footprints while also creating value for society, industry, and our shareholders.

We have global ambitions and are already present in 15 European countries, as well as the US.

What are we looking for?

We are now looking for a new firmware / Embedded Software Engineer. You will be part of a great team of 10 colleagues, working with both hardware and firmware. You will also be working closely with the rest of the teams in the company.

What will you be working with?

Your main tasks will be within:

Development of firmware for sensor and communication products

Implementation of low-level drivers all the way up to high-level application code

Participation in architectural discussions, design and code reviews

Close collaboration with hardware and test engineers

Debugging and troubleshooting embedded systems on real hardware

Supporting verification, testing, and production ramp-up

Taking ownership of features and contributing to product success

Participate in firmware release processes, monitor and roll-out new firmware to field devices

Who are you?

You have 0–3 years of relevant work experience, and a BS/MS in Embedded Systems, Electronics, Computer Engineering, or similar. You value readability, clean code, good architecture and think that code is meant to be read by humans and happen to compile for machines. You also think unit tests are equally as important as code. Last but not least, you want to contribute to a great working environment enjoy working collaboratively in cross-disciplinary teams.

Not a requirement, but it would be extra beneficial if you have experience working close to hardware (MCUs, peripherals, sensors), are familiar with RTOS (preferably Zephyr) and embedded system constraints and have basic experience with Python.

What do we offer?

We offer competitive salary with great pension and insurance benefits. We have a positive, flexible, and trust-based work environment, with flexible working condition. We are a team of highly competent and friendly colleagues, with lots of social events, such as game nights, chess, running clubs etc. Our office is centrally located in Oslo, close to public transportation of all kind.

Does this sound interesting? If so, we want to hear from you! We are interviewing candidates on a continuous basis. We therefore encourage interested applicants to submit their application as early as possible.

This includes ensuring stable system behavior, reliable Linux system image and firmware boiling down to robust device functionality. You will implement a robust Linux image as well as microcontroller firmware update mechanism. And with the use of Python, you will simplify complex problems. YOU WILL * Develop and maintain embedded Linux systems using Yocto for ARM-based platforms (e.g. Raspberry Pi and similar SBCs) * Configure, extend, and debug Yocto build environments, layers, and recipes * Support and improve Linux-based system bring-up and debugging on new hardware * Interface embedded Linux systems with microcontrollers * Write firmware that runs on ARM Microcontrollers (e.g. STM32) * Support on hardware related software development using Python * Develop tooling for automation, testing, deployment, and diagnostics * Collaborate closely with hardware, firmware, and backend/cloud teams * Participate in code reviews and contribute to improving system architecture and maintainability YOU HAVE * Solid experience with Linux Distributions * Practical experience with the Yocto Project (building images, modifying recipes, working with layers) * Experience with ARM-based embedded platforms (Raspberry Pi or similar SBCs) * Expert embedded C/C++ knowledge for firmware development * Experience working with microcontrollers (e.g. STM32, ESP32, or similar) * Hands-on experience with hardware interfaces (GPIO, UART, SPI, I2C, etc.) * Good knowledge of Python * Experience using Git and collaborative development workflows * Ability to debug complex issues across hardware/software boundaries WHAT WE OFFER * Real-World Impact: Design hardware that goes directly into the hands of farmers, solving global food production and climate challenges. * Ownership & Growth: A key role in a fast-growing scale-up where you own your area of responsibility with flat hierarchies and fast decision-making. * Collaborative Culture: Work in a highly productive, international team that values hands-on development and mutual support. * Year-End Break: Enjoy a paid company-wide closure between Christmas and New Year to recharge and spend time with loved ones. * Seamless Commuting: Choose between an ABC Berlin/Potsdam travel pass or a Deutschland-Ticket to keep you mobile. * Team Spirit: Annual company retreats to warmer climates (last year we went to Gran Canaria), regular social events, and a fully stocked kitchen with coffee, tea, and snacks. WHY US? We are changing how farmers understand and manage their soil—moving from lab-based analysis to real-time insights directly in the field. We value transparency, ownership, and continuous improvement, and we believe great products come from teams that respect and support each other. We set high standards, reward performance, and foster a positive, constructive feedback culture. INTERESTED? If you are ready to tackle the challenge of making complex soil data instantly accessible and actionable for farmers worldwide, we want to hear from you. Send us your application (CV or LinkedIn).
