The posting

IN SHORT

Are you ready to build the backbone of our smart workplace technology? As our new IoT Platform Engineer (100%) in Zurich, you will own the transition of our hardware fleet into a highly reliable, streamlined system. FELFEL puts smart fridges and coffee machines in offices across Switzerland and the US, and every line of code you write will run in a real workplace, serving real people every day.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Own the device runtime on our fridges and coffee machine controllers (Gavettis) end to end, managing everything from zero-touch provisioning, device bootstrap, call-home and on-device applications.
  • Drive the consolidation of our fleet management onto a single platform, making the architectural choices and defending them.
  • Reduce the number of programming languages running on the edge, bringing our cloud and device environments closer together.
  • Partner with the Head of Engineering to spec the next generation of fridge and Gavetti hardware, pick vendors, and define the software contracts.
  • Manage and evolve vendor relationships and integrations for our vendors and badge reader suppliers.
  • Act as the ultimate reality check on the engineering team for what is actually running and succeeding in the field.

YOUR PROFILE

  • 5+ years of experience building production systems, with a proven track record of shipping and operating a real fleet of devices in production (handling real users, outages, and OTA updates).
  • Strong working knowledge of edge platform concerns, including networking (VPNs, NAT, flaky links), Linux and Android on small hardware, OS-level debugging, and observability for offline-tolerant systems.
  • Comfort and proficiency across at least two of the following languages: C#, Go, or Kotlin, with a willingness to standardize.
  • Deep understanding of hardware as an interface, with the ability to navigate Modbus, USB, serial connections, sensor datasheets, and vendor SDKs.
  • Experience with Balena, Azure IoT Hub, KubeEdge, Kubernetes, Docker, or containerized workloads is a strong plus.
  • Familiarity with commercial appliance ecosystems (like coffee machines or vending) and enough electronics literacy to read a datasheet and ask the right questions.
  • Pragmatic problem-solving mindset—you would rather standardize than invent, and you choose the boring, reliable tool over the purely interesting one.
  • Fluency in English, German is nice to have
  • Non-smoker - we don't want you to smell like cigarettes, neither at work nor at customer meetings. After all, FELFEL is about good food.
  • Valid work permit or Swiss passport.

OUR BENEFITS

  • Lots of delicious food, just a few steps away from your desk - we make your gastronomic dreams come true
  • Best barista coffee and tea for the whole team, thanks to our innovative Gavetti coffee machine
  • 5 weeks holiday per year, as well as the chance to buy an extra week of vacation
  • Two full weeks of ‘work from anywhere’ per year to bring more variety to your work day
  • We care about your future with an above-mandatory pension fund
  • New parents get 16 or 3 weeks, respectively, of fully paid parental leave. We also support the return to work by making a generous financial contribution to childcare until the child reaches kindergarten age.
  • We encourage our employees to use public transport by covering your half-fare travelcard
  • Great team events, such as our well-known FELFEL Summer Outing
  • Stay active and healthy with our weekly sports sessions

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.
