Public materials show a small team shipping a technically demanding product, with hiring that spans core software engineering and go-to-market roles. A late-seed extension reported in 2025 suggests the compa

Palpable Score

/ 100
embedded ocean GmbH is unusually good on pay transparency for a small industrial software startup, with published salary ranges and permanent roles in at least two postings. The score is held back by limited, public evidence on early-career progression and retention, plus a careers page that often shows no open vacancies even when hiring appears elsewhere.
Pillar 1: Early-career access

Score

13.0
/ 20
  • The company shows real early-career titles in public materials, including “Junior Software Engineer” and multiple “Working Student” roles listed on the team page.
  • embedded ocean GmbH has posted roles with “Junior” scope outside engineering too, such as “Growth Marketing Manager – Junior Sales (m/f/d)”.
  • The company frequently shows “No open vacancies” on the official careers page, which makes entry-level access feel intermittent rather than reliably available.

Pillar 2: Hiring fairness and transparency

Score

15.7
/ 20
  • The company’s job postings are detailed about responsibilities and expectations, including specifics like expected hours, hybrid/on-site approach, and language requirements.
  • embedded ocean GmbH publishes salary ranges directly in at least two job ads, which removes a major information gap for early-career applicants.
  • The company requests a C++ code sample (for the C++ role) which is role-relevant, but the public materials do not clearly state how the submission is assessed or whether there is a structured interview loop.

Pillar 3: Learning and support

Score

12.0
/ 20
  • The company explicitly lists “Trainings and professional development” as a benefit in multiple job postings.
  • embedded ocean GmbH publicly highlights technical tooling and documentation (for example, product guides and a knowledge base), but those materials are aimed at users and do not describe internal onboarding for junior hires.
  • The company’s careers page describes cultural themes (open communication, multicultural environment, flexible working) but does not spell out manager 1:1s, ramp plans, or mentoring in a way early-career candidates can rely on.

Pillar 4: Pay fairness and stability

Score

16.3
/ 20
  • The company posts explicit annual salary ranges for roles including C++ Software Engineer (€50k–€85k) and Growth Marketing Manager – Junior Sales (€50k–€70k).
  • embedded ocean GmbH lists permanent employment among job types, which matters for early-career stability.
  • The company does not consistently publish salary ranges across every role or centralise pay information on the careers page, so comparability is limited when candidates are browsing broadly.

Pillar 5: Early-career outcomes

Score

9.7
/ 20
  • The company publicly lists multiple working students and junior engineers on the team page, which suggests the company hires earlier-career talent rather than only senior specialists.
  • embedded ocean GmbH has public “welcome aboard” posts for several new hires across late 2025 to January 2026, which is a positive sign of ongoing team growth, but not proof of early-career progression.
  • The company’s public LinkedIn footprint indicates a small team size and shows employee mix, but there is no published promotion cadence, retention metric, or early-career career-path data, which caps this pillar.
