Lely, opgericht in 1948, zet zich in voor het creëren van een duurzame, winstgevende en plezierige toekomst in de landbouw. Gedreven door de uitdagingen waar boeren voor staan en de behoeften van koeien, ontwikkelen we hoogwaardige robots en datasystemen die het dierenwelzijn, de flexibiliteit en de productiviteit op melkveebedrijven verbeteren. Onze missie is om duurzame voedselproductie te ondersteunen.
Al meer dan 30 jaar zijn we wereldwijd marktleider in de verkoop en service van geautomatiseerde systemen voor opeenvolgende generaties melkveehouders. Elke dag inspireren we onze collega’s om klanten innovatieve oplossingen te bieden en een betrouwbare partner te zijn voor langetermijnadvies en ondersteuning. Met onze ultramoderne Lely Campus in Maassluis en een wereldwijd netwerk van toegewijde Lely Centers die verkoop en service op maat aanbieden, is Lely actief in meer dan vijftig landen.
Vacatureomschrijving
As an Embedded Software Engineer Microcontrollers, you contribute to the intelligence at the core of our robotic and connected products. You develop firmware that directly controls actuators, interprets sensor data, and enables reliable communication between systems.
You work on microcontroller-based platforms where real-time performance, robustness, and efficiency are essential. From designing low-level control logic to integrating communication protocols such as BLE, your work has a direct impact on how our robots move, sense, and interact.
In this role, you collaborate closely with hardware, electronics, and mechanical engineers. Together, you define interfaces, refine system requirements, and ensure seamless integration between software and hardware. You are involved throughout the product lifecycle, from early prototypes to validation and release.
Your Main Responsibilities
You enjoy working close to the hardware and are motivated by making systems move, respond, and perform reliably. You combine analytical thinking with a practical, hands-on mindset and like collaborating in multidisciplinary teams.
You bring:
