Embedded Software Engineer

At UNIVITY we believe that everyone on Earth should have access to internet connectivity and we are on a mission to empower telecom operators to deliver high-performance, affordable, sustainable internet from space to their clients where terrestrial networks are not available.

We successfully launched our first mission in 2025. We are now on our way for our next major milestone: an in-orbit demonstration in 2028, where two complete satellites will be deployed to further validate the system end-to-end. The following step will be to deploy our full constellation of disruptive satellites, enabling telecom operators to provide seamless connectivity worldwide.

Our project is rapidly ramping up, and we are looking to expand our team with passionate individuals who share our vision.

UNIVITY was created in 2022 and has offices in Toulouse and Paris. We offer exceptional learning and career development opportunities, as well as competitive salaries and benefits.

UNIVITY is looking for Embedded Software Engineer to join our User Terminal development team. You will contribute to the design, development and integration of embedded software for advanced 5G NTN communication platforms.

Working closely with Hardware, RF and System Engineering teams, you will participate in the development of the next generation of satellite communication terminals.

Your key responsibilities and tasks:

• Design, develop and maintain embedded software for User Terminal platforms.
• Develop, integrate and validate software components running on Embedded Linux.
• Contribute to low-level software development (BSP, drivers, hardware interfaces).
• Support hardware/software integration and board bring-up activities.
• Develop, test and debug software on target platforms.
• Analyze and resolve software integration issues.
• Participate in software architecture, design reviews and technical discussions.
• Contribute to software quality through testing, code reviews and continuous improvement.
• Work within an Agile development environment with multidisciplinary teams.
