Job Description

Systems Engineer - RISC-V Smart Energy Infrastructure

Embedded Systems RISC-V Grid Control & Smart Energy Devices


We're looking for a Systems Engineer to join our hybrid team in Eindhoven, focused on developing and integrating RISC-V-based embedded systems for next-generation smart grid and energy monitoring platforms. You'll work across architecture, firmware integration, and system validation to support decentralized, low-latency energy control systems.


What You'll Do

  • Define and implement embedded system architectures using RISC-V microcontrollers and SoCs for energy platforms.
  • Lead the integration of real-time control, measurement, and communication modules in grid-connected devices.
  • Collaborate with hardware and firmware teams to ensure system-wide performance and power efficiency.
  • Validate communication protocols (e.g., Modbus, MQTT, CAN) across distributed components.
  • Assist in compliance testing for energy standards (IEC 61850, ISO 15118).


You Bring

  • 3+ years of experience in embedded systems or energy control platforms.
  • Deep familiarity with RISC-V architecture and real-time system integration.
  • Experience with energy metering, smart sensors, or similar industrial embedded products.
  • Strong background in C/C++, system modeling, and protocol implementation.
  • Knowledge of low-level debugging and performance profiling on custom hardware.


Nice to have:

  • Experience with distributed energy systems, microgrids, or EV infrastructure.
  • Familiarity with Linux-based platforms or embedded RTOS (Zephyr, FreeRTOS).
  • Exposure to simulation tools (MATLAB/Simulink) or HIL setups.
  • Dutch language skills (optional, English is the main working language).
