Candela’s ultimate purpose is to speed up the transition to fossil fuel-free lakes and oceans. We strive to re-think efficiency in marine transportation to radically push the performance boundaries of electric boats and ships.

By combining sensors, computers and advanced submerged hydrofoils, our electric craft fly above the water, reaching speeds and range previously attained only by fossil fuel powerboats.

After launching Candela C-7, Europe’s currently best-selling electric boat, we launched Candela C-8 in August 2021, the first electric boat intended for high volume production. We are also venturing into public transport with the revolutionary foiling P-12 ferry, built for the city of Stockholm.

We are now looking for a Simulation Software Engineer to support Candela’s growth ambitions.

About This Role

As a Simulation Software Engineer, you will be responsible for our fleet management simulation stack. The successful candidate will be responsible for developing software solutions that simulate and analyze fleet management operations. This role requires expertise in software development, data analysis, and problem-solving skills.
