Senior Embedded Platform Engineer (f/m/d)

TYTAN Technologies

At TYTAN, we aim to set a global standard in autonomous air defense with AI-driven, cost-efficient systems that counter unmanned aerial threats at scale. We protect people. We protect critical infrastructure. We protect European sovereignty.

We are looking for a Senior Embedded Platform Engineer who lives at the boundary between software and hardware. Someone who has taken a tested binary and turned it into a deployable, updatable, provisionable system image running on real embedded targets in a production environment. Not a hobbyist, not a prototype builder: someone who has shipped embedded Linux products to customers, operated them in the field, and dealt with what happens when an OTA update fails at 2 AM on 500 devices.

This person has architected or significantly contributed to an OTA update system, built full OS images from tested artifacts, designed provisioning flows for factory lines, and has strong opinions on boot chains, image layouts, partition schemes, and rollback strategies.

Your Roadmap to make an impact

• Architect, build, and operate robust OTA update systems for embedded Linux devices, including A/B partitioning, rollback strategies, and fleet-wide deployments

• Transform CI outputs into production-ready OS images, ensuring correct packaging, dependency resolution, and configuration layering

• Design and implement device provisioning workflows for manufacturing, including identity, key injection, and initial firmware loading

• Define and maintain boot architectures (bootloaders, partition layouts, secure boot chains, and recovery strategies)

• Bridge the gap between software engineering, hardware systems, and manufacturing, working directly with production and test teams

• Integrate deployment workflows with factory systems, including end-of-line testing and manufacturing infrastructure

• Debug issues across the stack—from kernel and bootloader to hardware interfaces via UART or JTAG

• Collaborate with external security partners while building internal expertise in embedded security
