Embedded Software Engineer

Candela’s ultimate purpose is to speed up the transition to fossil fuel-free lakes and oceans. We strive to re-think efficiency in marine transportation to radically push the performance boundaries of electric boats and ships.

By combining sensors, computers and advanced submerged hydrofoils, our electric craft fly above the water, reaching speeds and range previously attained only by fossil fuel powerboats.

After launching Candela C-7, Europe’s currently best-selling electric boat, we launched Candela C-8 in August 2021, the first electric boat intended for high volume production. We are also venturing into public transport with the revolutionary foiling P-12 ferry, built for the city of Stockholm.

We are now looking for a new college to join our journey as an Embedded Software Engineer.

What we do

Embedded systems are the core of Candles foiling technology and electric propulsion system. Together with your team, you will help us make the world a better place by writing beautiful and efficient code. You need to be an embedded systems enthusiast and should have experience in several domains within the field. If you think in C that’s a ++ and will aid in the communication with the rest of the software team. Your main responsibilities are:

- Embedded SW development
- System testing and integration
