Embedded Software Engineer

Salary Competitive

Tired of fixing broken software? Build your own from scratch, and define the future tech of StaySeat.

At StaySeat we seek to create an alternative to the inefficient heat lamps and gas burners that currently are the industry standard for restaurants, bars, and cafes. At StaySeat we believe in heating people rather than areas. Therefore, we have developed a heated seat that uses 96% less energy and CO2 while providing the guest with a better [and individual] heating experience. Using our subscription model we have onboarded 50+ customers (1000+ seats) and have prominent brands such as Tivoli, Nyhavn, Café Zirup, Bistro Central, Rib-House and many more brands onboarded already.

Having seats all over the country creates a need for remote monitoring. Therefore, we are building the world’s first intelligent heated seat. From our controller, we are now able to obtain data, and using this data we can monitor the seats, get trigger alarms on various parameters, lock stolen seats (make them unusable), and reduce handling time. By now, we have developed an alpha version, but we need an internal employee to take it to the next stage. 

We are now looking for an independent and self-driven Embedded Software Engineer to lead our tech development efforts. The ideal candidate will have a background in embedded software, experience with microcontrollers, and the ability to develop and maintain IoT solutions.

  • Implement and manage communication protocols, data transfer, and over-the-air updates. 

  • Develop and maintain software for Espressif microcontrollers using ESP-IDF.

  • Work with real-time embedded operating systems such as Zephyr, FreeRTOS, or similar.

  • Set up and document comprehensive test environments for microcontrollers.

  • Software development using React, Golang, and SQL databases.

  • Basic front-end visualization of data in a web-based dashboard using Grafana or similar. 

  • Design and build cloud solutions.

  • Newly graduated or 1-3 years of experience.

  • Strong problem-solving skills and a proactive attitude.

We believe in heating people rather than areas. Using heated seats we can power 50 seats for the same energy as ONE heating lamp and 400 seats for a gas burner 400! 🤯 It gives you the potential to save money on electricity, provide better customer service, and help reduce emissions by +90% Imagine you are at a restaurant. When it gets late and the sun goes down, Instead of leaving the restaurant you can just turn on the heating elements in your cushion, and the evening can continue. Imagine how many great memories you can have in 10 years if every evening from now doesn't naturally stop when it gets cold?
