In this role, you’ll be part of a technically advanced team developing software used in mission-critical rail systems across Europe. Working in the railway sector means contributing directly to the green transition, enabling more sustainable transportation solutions. It’s also a stable and resilient industry that continues to invest and grow, even when the world feels uncertain as we've seen over the past few years. For engineers who value long-term impact, reliability, and societal benefit, rail offers a uniquely meaningful and secure career path.
In this position you’ll take the lead in a new project phase, where legacy onboard systems are being renewed and adapted for new countries. The work involves robust, long-lasting solutions where quality and documentation are prioritized over speed or trendiness. This is a great opportunity to combine hands-on embedded development with technical leadership in a highly structured environment.
Your future responsibilities
As a Lead Embedded Developer, you will guide a team and take ownership of planning, coordination, and technical direction while remaining hands-on with development tasks. You’ll collaborate closely with system engineers, testers, and project managers in an international context. Your tasks include:
- Lead the team and coordinate embedded software development within Automatic Train Protection (ATP) software
- Writing and maintaining embedded software (e.g., ADA or similar)
- Driving requirement review and traceability using IBM Rational DOORS
- Ensuring compliance with safety standards such as CENELEC
- Reviewing code and contributing to architecture and documentation
- Mentoring junior team members and promoting best practices
- Supporting project planning and estimations
Who we are looking for
You have a degree in engineering (e.g., computer science, mechatronics) and at least 5-7 years of experience in embedded development using ADA, C, C++ or similar languages. You’ve previously taken on a technical lead or team coordination role and are used to working in structured, regulated environments like rail, aerospace, medtech or defence.
It’s meritorious if you
- Have experience with Automatic Train Protection, ETCS onboard systems, or related railway technologies
- Are familiar with ADA
- Know how to work with IBM DOORS and safety-critical documentation processes
- Understand CENELEC or comparable safety standards
- Are fluent in Swedish
You are structured, communicative, and technically confident. You enjoy leading others, ensuring quality, and working in long-term projects that demand precision and accountability.
