IoT Developer (Linux/ C++)

The Team

EMSYS stands for Embedded Systems development - hardware design, PCB layout to firmware and software development, integration and testing, production support.

Our team is involved in product development for the Smart Infrastructure division of Siemens in the fields of Energy Management and Building Products and has complete responsibility for new modules and products. Hardware and software developers are working together from various locations and support each other in a highly effective way.

The Projects

As an IoT Developer you will be working in the Building Products field, helping to shape the infrastructure for future smart buildings. The partner division has developed and deployed world class systems to automate and manage complex buildings such as hospitals, data centers or universities: Siemens Desigo.

As part of the EMSYS BP team, you will contribute to advancing the state-of-the-art solutions that will be integrated in future versions of the systems developed by our partners. As more and more information processing is shifting towards the Edge/Local processing, you will develop sophisticated IoT devices, based on Siemens hardware and Embedded Linux solutions to bring the infrastructure to life.

As energy efficiency is a major concern in the development of Siemens systems, our work has a direct contribution to the lowering of the carbon footprint of medium and large buildings, which already consists of 36% of the total emissions across Europe.
