Tired of code that never sees the light of day?

Ready to build real-world solutions that blend software and cutting-edge hardware?

We're on the lookout for an Embedded Software Engineer to join a highly collaborative engineering team working on complex systems with real-world impact — from concept and architecture through to deployment and refinement.

What you'll be doing:

Building embedded software for real-time systems (bare metal or Linux-based)

Designing, developing, testing and debugging code in C/C++ for microcontrollers or embedded processors

Integrating hardware and software across a variety of platforms and use cases

Using tools like schematics, oscilloscopes, or logic analyzers to bring hardware to life

Collaborating closely with hardware, firmware, and systems engineers

Helping improve development practices — mentoring junior engineers, reviewing code, and sharing knowledge

Occasionally travelling to test sites to put your work into action (think real-world systems, not endless test rigs)

Tech you'll need to know (or be keen to learn):

Solid experience with embedded systems, ideally using STM32, PIC, or similar

Working knowledge of RTOS, bare metal development, or Linux for embedded

Source control (Git), unit testing, and structured dev processes

Experience debugging low-level code with tools like JTAG, oscilloscopes, etc.

Bonus if you’ve dabbled with Docker, CI/CD for embedded, or hardware-in-the-loop testing

What we're looking for:

A problem solver with a deep interest in embedded software and electronics

Strong communicator — you’ll need to explain complex ideas simply

A team player who enjoys mentoring, collaboration, and driving forward best practices

Degree qualified (or equivalent real-world experience in software/electronic engineering)

Why this role?

You’ll get to work on meaningful projects, collaborate with brilliant engineers, and see your code have real impact in physical environments — not just buried in the back-end. Plus, the team actually values clean, elegant solutions over hacks and shortcuts.
