You're joining at the point where the way this job is done is being rewritten**What you'll bring*** Some C or C++, and the appetite to get much better at it fast* Evidence you like building things: a personal project, a robot, a Formula Student car, a synth, a drone, a thing that shouldn't have worked but did* Curiosity about how the whole system fits together* Studying or recently finished electronics, computer science, mechatronics, physics or similar. We care more about what you've made than what you've studied.**Nice to have (any of these)**STM32 or similar MCUs · CAN bus · embedded Linux · motor control · Python · vision or ML · Git and CI**What you'll get*** Competitive salary* Share options in a high-growth company* Pension via salary sacrifice* 30 days' holiday annually (inclusive of bank holidays), plus a two-week company shutdown over Christmas/New Year* Training on our vehicles and battery systems, and time with the engineering team* Tools and workshop provided* Hybrid working: 4 days a week in our west London HQ**Why now**Small team, short feedback loops, vehicles on the road. What you write here ships, and you'll see it running.Interested? Send us your CV and show us something you've been building outside of work.
