Job description

We are looking for a Senior Embedded Engineer to play a key role in the development of advanced wireless communication systems.

This is a hands-on role combining embedded software development and FPGA design, ideal for someone who enjoys working across both domains rather than specialising in just one.

You will:

  • Develop embedded C software for real-time systems
  • Contribute to FPGA development (VHDL, ideally Xilinx)
  • Work across the full product lifecycle, from concept through to production
  • Contribute to new waveform and algorithm development
  • Collaborate closely with hardware, RF, and system teams

You'll also have the opportunity to work with software-defined radio (SDR) and cutting-edge RF technologies.

Requirements

Do you have experience in VHDL?, * Strong experience in embedded C development

  • Experience with FPGA development (VHDL or similar)
  • Comfortable working in a Linux or embedded Linux environment
  • Strong understanding of electronics and working with test equipment (e.g. oscilloscopes)
  • Degree in Electronics, Engineering, or Physics

Desirable:

  • Experience with C++
  • Exposure to SDR, RF systems, or DSP
  • Background in defence, telecommunications, broadcast, or similar industries
  • Experience with Xilinx FPGAs
  • Experence in mentoring & team/project leadership

We're looking for someone who enjoys working close to hardware and is comfortable moving between software and FPGA development.

Benefits & conditions

  • Work on cutting-edge technology at the limits of what's possible
  • Own your work from design through to delivery
  • Be part of a highly skilled, collaborative engineering team
  • Flexible working, competitive salary, and strong benefits package
  • Ongoing training and development, including exposure to new technologies

Successful applicants will need to be eligible for Security Clearance.
