[Hiring] Tech Lead, Embedded Systems @Airtame

Role Description

At a big company, the platform layer is a hundred engineers, and you own a slice of it. A driver. A subsystem. A corner of the release pipeline. You go deep, but you rarely get to hold the whole thing. With us you will. One team owns the entire layer: the operating system and firmware on every Airtame, the streaming stack underneath it, the releases that reach devices in the field, and the work of turning new hardware into a shipping product.

The role is roughly 60% hands-on the hardest problems and 40% growing the engineers who work on them.

Year one outcomes

• Take AirPlay and Miracast from beta to default: They should be solid enough to ship on by default across the Airtame product line.
• Make firmware releases boring: A predictable cadence, an automated quality bar, and shipping to the whole fleet as routine.
• Turn the next board into a shipping Airtame: New silicon has to boot, hold a network, manage its heat, and run conferencing well enough to sell.
• Lead the team: Run the 1:1s, set the technical bar, and support team members' growth.

Who you are

• The player-coach: You've set a team's technical direction and want to grow engineers.
• At home where software meets hardware: Familiar with embedded Linux, wireless stacks, streaming protocols, and drivers.
• You ship to hardware you can't reach: Experience with staged rollouts, over-the-air updates, and testing on devices.
• You've turned new hardware into a product: Experience with bringup and managing new silicon.

Logistics

• Location: Remote in Europe, or hybrid from our Copenhagen office.
• Employment type: Full-time preferred, open to project-based contracts.

Benefits

• A shift worth architecting.
• A span you can hold.
• A healthy work-life balance.
• Significant responsibility and ownership over projects.
• Five weeks paid vacation and 5 days of extra paid AirtameFlex days.
• Flexible work environment, with a hybrid mindset.
• Pension and private health insurance (on FTE Copenhagen contract).
