AOSP Embedded Developer

We're Dæly® from Vienna. Founder funded, we just shipped one of Europe's biggest tech launches, growing triple digits (profitably) - we're now building the team that takes this to the next level: Not another B2B AI tool, but a piece of European tech for every household in the world, helping families everyday. What the iPhone was for telephones, we're building for the family whiteboard (with more to come).

Your chance.

This is your chance to take real ownership of the hardware side within a small, cracked team - with far more impact than you'd have in a huge org. You'll own the firmware our devices run on, run the process with our manufacturer and suppliers and help shape the next generation of Dæly hardware.

What you'll do.

• Manage the process with suppliers and ODMs, from samples to firmware sign-off
• Source, test and compare new hardware samples (tablets, chips) and drive the evaluation end to end
• Own firmware testing and rollouts for our Android-based touchscreen device, including our own firmware updates
• Keep the device secure and up to date with ongoing security and Android version updates
• Work closely with our hardware manufacturer to make the firmware fit the hardware (chipset, peripherals, sensors)
• Drive new projects: benchmark chip options, compare samples, ...
• Lay the groundwork for upcoming hardware generations (new chipsets, NPU/accelerators for on-device AI)

What we are looking for.

• An embedded systems background (Linux, Android/AOSP) - you know how firmware for a real device gets built, packaged and updated
• Solid understanding of AOSP and embedded Android
• Hands-on experience with firmware testing, OTA updates and debugging in the field (ADB, logcat, bug reports)
• Experience working with hardware manufacturers or suppliers, ideally with a move towards sourcing and supply chain topics
• Clear communication with partners across time zones

Nice to have.

• Experience with Rockchip or comparable embedded Android chipsets
• Android Device Owner / kiosk mode deployments
• Basic understanding of on-device ML inference constraints (memory, compute budget)
• German Speaking, based in- or close to Vienna

What we offer you.

• Become the brain behind the tool your neighbor will use. Join a team doing the work of their lifetime. Help make Europe a truly strong player in tech
• € 60-80K Gross per year, based on experience
• A (hilarious) ambitious team of builders & serial entrepreneurs who care deeply and move fast
• The space/budget to get things done your way - with direct access to the founders, real ownership & impact on the company
• Offsites, team events & a genuinely great vibe
• 100% flexible hours, remote-first + optional Vienna office
• Help build Europe's next unicorn 💛
