Meet Samuel Zetterlund

What does a typical day look like for you as an Embedded Developer?

– In one of my projects, I hack C and Python code, solder and process signals with oscilloscopes, and so on. In my other project, I have a lot of customer and end-user contact, build test systems, and send packages with equipment we’ve built to different countries.

What Samuel appreciates the most about Consid is the freedom combined with our progressive spirit. Regardless of the industry, our embedded solutions can revolutionize the client’s work.

– I get to be part of something exciting from the beginning! It’s also important to me that what I do is meaningful, and I’m happiest when working on something that has a clear societal benefit. Or even better, when I see that someone else benefits and is helped by what I do.

Embedded Systems – From Test Systems to the Toaster

Even at home, Samuel’s focus on embedded systems is evident, alongside his passion for running.

– I’ve built quite a few home automation devices over the years to control different things. But the coolest thing I have at home, which I didn’t build myself and might not exactly be classified as an embedded system, is the toaster that imprints the ice hockey team Leksand IF emblem on the toast. That or my converted hamburger phone to Bluetooth headset. Jokes aside. My 3D printer and Google hubs combined with Telldus to schedule lighting and play music are also some favorites.

Samuel continues:

– In my free time, I spend a lot of time with my family and like to do sports. Most of all, running in forests and mountains – I enjoy being out in nature.
