About Flybotix: Flybotix is a recognized Swiss robotics scale-up (based near Lausanne) building the ASIO indoor-inspection drone, which keeps humans out of hazardous confined spaces while delivering 20+ minutes of visual inspection for sewer, hydro power, oil & gas, maritime and chemical-plant applications.
Role: As an Embedded Firmware Engineer, you join the R&D team to design, develop and maintain the embedded firmware for Flybotix's indoor inspection drones. You optimize real-time, bare-metal and embedded Linux applications, develop sensor drivers and low-level libraries, and ensure robustness through automated testing and CI/CD.
Responsibilities: design and maintain drone firmware; run feasibility studies; optimize real-time/bare-metal/embedded Linux applications; develop and test sensor drivers, low-level libraries and RTOS-based solutions; implement automated testing and CI/CD; collaborate with Robotics and Production teams on integration and deployment; and document designs and test specifications.
Profile: 5+ years in C/C++ embedded firmware development for ARM platforms; expertise in embedded Linux and kernel customization, real-time/bare-metal design, STM32 MCU programming and RTOS (NuttX, FreeRTOS), sensor drivers and hardware-software integration, and MCU tooling; experience with automated testing/CI/CD and embedded debugging; drone/robotics/UAV experience strongly preferred; strong English (French a plus); Rust for embedded a significant plus.
What they offer: a dynamic, fast-growing environment with measurable impact, continuous training, modern offices, weekly fitness sessions, on-site catering and a strong people-first culture.
