Looking for a new job as an Embedded Software Engineer.

I have 3 years of experience as an embedded software engineer in an R&D team. Mostly with embedded C, real-time operating systems, ESP32, communication protocols, and some hardware design.

I'm specifically looking for companies that work on sustainability, health, education, privacy, FOSS, or similar fields. In the eastern part of the Netherlands or hybrid/remote.

If anyone knows any interesting companies, please let me know!

3d Printing is the Future: this time I couldn't print because the micro SD card in the printer got corrupted.

I designed another eurorack synth module. This time a bit of a dev board for experimenting with audio using a ch32v003 microcontroller programmed in rust.

And because I wanted to keep other names for more serious modules, I named this one BLEP

Having fun with the Big Boy locomotive, and made it pull a long coal train
I put a decent circle of track on the floor to make the Big Boy really go and got the full American railroad experience (derailing cars because of bad track pieces, cars needing maintenance, bad couplers.)
And on the move
I got a tiny Big Boy locomotive. It was on my wishlist for quite a while, and my local train shop happened to still have one.
This is what the inside looks like, a ridge to hold it in the transverse direction, and bolted connections for the longitudinal direction.
I needed a eurorack synth case which was a bit more portable, so I designed a modular 3d printed case.
I designed and 3d printed a building for my model railroad. I went for abandoned concrete warehouse. I think it looks nice, but I do need to research the architecture and dimensions of industrial buildings some more for the next one.
