Senior Embedded Software Engineer (m/f/d)

At inne, we have seen firsthand how women’s need for female health education and accurate fertility insights have been underserved. So we made it our obsession to use the best of science, tech, and design to bring actionable scientific insights into female health.

We are an interdisciplinary team and have developed our first innovative biotech product which enables women to analyse fertility hormones in their saliva.

With this insight, we want to follow our mission to help women tune into their bodies and make informed decisions about their fertility, sexuality, and overall female health!

We are pushing the boundaries of science, technology, and design and are guided by our values. In 2025, our inne Minilab has been officially certified as a contraceptive method under IVDR – the world’s first, at-home and saliva-based method for natural and hormone-free contraception!

We breathe and live our values of compassion, continuous learning and make an impact in the way we relate to our customers, we develop our product, we support each other in being our best selves, and navigate the uncertainties of working in an under-looked area.

If you want to be part of creating a disruptive wave in female health you have come to the right place!
