Embedded Software Design Engineer

We're on the lookout for an Embedded Software/Firmware Engineer who loves working with embedded systems and enjoys getting hands-on with both code and hardware.

This is a great opportunity to work on exciting, real-world products that demand smart, reliable software. You'll be involved in the whole journey - from brainstorming ideas and designing solutions to testing, tweaking, and launching. If you enjoy solving tricky problems and seeing your work make a real impact, this could be a great fit.

What You'll Be Doing

• Developing and improving embedded software and firmware for a variety of processors and microcontrollers.

• Building and fine-tuning low-level drivers and communication protocols to keep everything running smoothly.

• Writing clean, efficient C/C++ code that performs well in the real world.

• Getting involved in early design discussions to help shape system architecture and technical decisions.

• Working closely with hardware to figure out (and fix!) integration challenges.

• Helping create secure and reliable firmware update systems.

• Taking part in testing - from quick checks to full system validation - to make sure everything works as it should.

• Keeping documentation clear, simple, and useful.

Essential:

• A degree or solid experience in Software Engineering, Computer Science, Electronics, or something similar.

• Hands-on experience developing software and firmware for embedded systems.

• Strong skills in C and C++, with a focus on writing reliable and maintainable code.

• Experience with RTOS or bare-metal development.

• A good understanding of microcontrollers and protocols like I2C, SPI, UART, and CAN.

• Comfortable using tools like oscilloscopes and logic analysers.

• Familiar with version control (e.g., Git) and Agile workflows.

• Enjoys problem-solving and isn't afraid to get stuck into tricky debugging.

• Communicates well and works well with others.

Nice to Have:

• Experience working in regulated or safety-critical environments (e.g., DO-178C, ISO 26262, IEC 61508).

• Knowledge of FPGA or other low-level hardware programming.

• Experience with CI/CD pipelines and automated build/test tools.
