Embedded Software Engineer & Team Lead - Network Recorders, Lund
At Axis Communications we have delivered several groundbreaking products and look forward to pioneering many more. We are now looking to strengthen our System Products Recorder team with an Embedded Software Engineer & Team Lead at our HQ in Lund, Sweden.
Your future team
The System Products Recorder team develops software for new Linux Network Recorders and storage features in our user-space Linux platform, AXIS OS. We’re a diverse group with a wide range of skills, experiences, and backgrounds, united by a shared enthusiasm for software development and emerging technologies.
We foster a supportive, inclusive environment where collaboration and continuous learning are key. Everyone on the team is encouraged to share ideas, support one another, and grow together. Your voice matters here, and your contributions will help shape the future of our products.
What you’ll do here as an Embedded Software Developer & Team Lead:
In this dual role at System Products, you combine deep technical ownership with team leadership. You take personal responsibility for the projects you work in while also steering the team's overall delivery - keeping backlogs healthy, sprints on track, and stakeholders aligned. You'll act as a bridge between engineering and the wider organization, shaping both what we build and how we build it. Development is primarily done in C, Go and Python in an embedded Linux environment, and we always keep the end-user in mind - even when our deliverables are consumed by other software.
The responsibilities of the role include:
-
Developing software in Linux user space.
-
Owning and maintaining the team backlog - prioritizing, refining, and ensuring work is well-defined and ready to execute.
-
Facilitating scrum ceremonies (sprint planning, stand-ups, reviews, retrospectives) and driving continuous improvement.
-
Coordinating delivery across internal teams and external partners, managing timelines and surfacing risks early.
Who are you?
You are an engineer who enjoys solving problems through code, and who also thrives in a leadership role. You have a structured mindset and know how to translate technical complexity into clear priorities. You're comfortable facilitating discussions, driving decisions, and holding the team accountable - all while staying hands-on with the codebase. You collaborate naturally across teams and with external partners, and you create an environment where knowledge and ideas flow freely.
We'd love to hear that you have:
-
Solid experience in C programming in an embedded environment, preferably in Linux user space.
-
Proven experience as a backlog owner, scrum master, or technical project lead.
- Engineering bachelor's or master's degree in computer science, physics, mathematics, or equivalent.
Even better if you have one or several of the following qualifications:
-
Experience in Python and Go.
-
An interest in Software design and architecture.
-
Experience working with Git, Gerrit, Jira and Yocto.
-
Domain knowledge of storage media.
