Embedded Software Engineer

You’ll be responsible for designing, developing and maintaining embedded firmware, working closely with hardware and wider engineering teams to deliver reliable, high-performance products.

This is a hands-on role covering bare-metal C development, hardware integration, debugging and testing, with involvement across both new and existing products.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and develop embedded firmware using C.
• Develop and maintain bare-metal applications.
• Support new product development and sustaining engineering projects.
• Develop firmware for embedded hardware and communication interfaces.
• Write unit and integration tests and supporting test scripts.
• Diagnose and resolve firmware and hardware issues.
• Read and interpret hardware schematics and datasheets.
• Evaluate new hardware devices and designs.
• Debug embedded systems using appropriate test equipment.
• Produce technical documentation, including APIs and communication protocols.
• Use task tracking tools to manage development activities.
• Contribute to reliability analysis, risk assessments and FMEA.

Are you an experienced Embedded Software Engineer with strong C programming skills and a passion for developing firmware close to hardware?, You’ll ideally have:

• 5+ years’ experience working with embedded systems.
• Strong commercial experience developing bare-metal firmware in C.
• Knowledge of embedded communication protocols such as SPI, RS485 and CAN.
