Job Description

Ciklum is looking for a Senior Embedded Engineer to join our team full-time in Slovakia.

We are a custom product engineering company that supports both multinational organizations and scaling startups to solve their most complex business challenges. With a global team of over 4,000 highly skilled developers, consultants, analysts and product owners, we engineer technology that redefines industries and shapes the way people live.

About the role:

As a Senior Embedded Engineer, become a part of a cross-functional development team engineering experiences of tomorrow. You will join a long-term strategic partnership with a leading Danish company — a globally loved brand creating products and experiences that inspire generations of children and families worldwide.

Our team is integrating a proprietary programming language that will power a unified platform across the clients entire product ecosystem. The product is already on the market and actively used by end-users. You will be developing new releases, improving the architecture, enhancing features, and ensuring that everything works without a hitch — because when kids play, there is no room for bugs.

You will work within a large cross-functional team of around 25 Ciklum engineers alongside 50+ client-side designers, project managers, testers, and architects — collaborating closely to deliver a seamless and joyful user experience.

Responsibilities:

  • Design and develop software features for a performance-critical, user-facing product
  • Rearchitect and create new product versions — improving existing functionality and introducing new capabilities
  • Integrate tech stacks across multiple client products onto a unified platform
  • Support and enhance the game flow to ensure a seamless, enjoyable, and bug-free user experience
  • Implement new features and game mechanics with a strong eye for quality and user interaction
  • Develop supporting tools, automation, and toolchains (linters, debuggers, build systems)
  • Analyze system constraints and optimize implementations for performance, memory, and concurrency
  • Collaborate closely with designers to translate product requirements into robust technical solutions
  • Participate in code reviews, technical discussions, and mentor mid-level engineers
  • Troubleshoot and improve existing functionality across a large, complex codebase

Requirements:

  • Strong C or C++
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills — you think before you code
  • Experience working within large, complex codebases
  • A genuine feel for user experience quality — you notice when something is off
  • Strong debugging skills and a zero-tolerance mindset for bugs
  • Solid knowledge of Git version control
  • Strong self-management — able to drive tasks from design to delivery independently
  • Proficient in verbal and written English communication
  • Passion for building high-quality, clean code

Desirable:

  • Experience with Python — production-quality code
  • Familiarity with compiler design, ASTs, type systems, or optimization techniques
  • Knowledge of embedded systems or low-level memory management
  • Experience with Docker
  • Mobile platform experience (touch input, camera, GPS, Bluetooth, push notifications)

What’s in it for you?

  • Strong community: Work alongside top professionals in a friendly, open-door culture that values initiative and empowers its people to succeed
  • Fast-paced & agile environment: Be part of a dynamic, fast-moving organization that champions efficiency and innovation
  • Global exposure: Collaborate with international, cross-functional teams and contribute to large-scale initiatives
  • Tailored learning: Boost your skills with internal events (meetups, conferences, workshops), Udemy access, language courses, and company-paid certifications
  • Flexibility: Balance office and remote work to fit your rhythm
  • Care: Take advantage of our extensive benefits offering, aligned with the best market standards

The salary starts from 3000 Eur gross. The final salary depends on the previous experience and professional knowledge of the candidate.

About us:

At Ciklum, we are always exploring innovations, empowering each other to achieve more, and engineering solutions that matter. With us, you’ll work with cutting-edge technologies, contribute to impactful projects, and be part of a One Team culture that values collaboration and progress.

Our Slovakia hub brings together passionate professionals working on global initiatives. Be part of a close-knit team that’s driving digital transformation and creating lasting impact.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
