Embedded Software Engineer

• Firmware Architecture: Design and write robust embedded C/C++ firmware for next-generation consumer devices featuring low-power microcontrollers and multi-processor frameworks.
• Real-Time Systems: Architect real-time tasks and multi-threaded systems utilizing RTOS environments (e.g. FreeRTOS, SafeRTOS, or bare-metal configurations).
• Peripherals & Connectivity: Develop low-level drivers and handle protocol integration for sensor data acquisition, battery management, and wireless communication layers (BLE, GNSS/GPS, I2C, SPI, CAN).
• Automation & Scripting: Utilise Python to build automated test frameworks and custom validation scripts to ensure code quality before deployment.

• Deep Embedded C/C++ Expertise: A proven track record of delivering firmware for real-world physical devices that have shipped to market.
• RTOS & Bare-Metal Depth: Strong understanding of scheduling, interrupts, memory management, and debugging directly on hardware.
• Sensor & Protocol Mastery: Comfortable interfacing with microcontrollers to drive real-time data handling, motor/power synchronization, or tracking data.
• Commute Realism: You must be local enough (e.g. Reading, Winchester, Wokingham, Bracknell) to commit to a daily 5-day on-site presence as the core anchor of this newly forming hub.

YT Technologies has partnered with a premier consumer hardware brand that has made a major strategic decision to bring all next-generation software development completely in-house. As a result, they are opening a brand-new engineering R&D centre in Basingstoke, and are looking for their first dedicated Embedded Software Specialist.
