Verena Kral University Recruiter

Info

City/region: Munich (Germany)
Entry level: Working students
Employment Type: Part-time, limited
Ref. Number: 1718

Introduction

Our oscilloscope systems combine hardware, embedded firmware, and connected software. We're modernizing our C++ software stack - upgrading dependencies, moving to a newer Visual Studio / toolchain version, and cleaning up our build system - while also preparing the product for EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) conformity. These two goals go hand in hand: up-to-date, well-maintained dependencies are a core part of cybersecurity compliance.

We're looking for a motivated working student in Munich who is comfortable in a real C++ codebase and wants hands-on experience in both practical software engineering and product security compliance. Ideal if you're studying computer science, software/embedded engineering, electrical engineering, or a related field.

Contribute to code quality, build reliability and developer tooling
