We are looking for a high-caliber Senior Embedded Software Engineer to join a leading technology business. This role is designed for an engineer who thrives on technical variety and wants to play a key part in turning "impossible" concepts into real-world, high-integrity platforms.

Your Technical Profile

  • Language Expertise: Strong proficiency in C and/or C++ for embedded systems.
  • Platform Experience: Extensive experience developing for embedded platforms (ARM, STM32, or similar Microcontrollers).
  • OS Knowledge: Solid understanding of Embedded Linux (Yocto/PetaLinux).
  • Systems Architecture: Ability to design scalable, robust software using UML and rigorous engineering practices.
  • Interfacing: Comfortable working close to the metal, including interfacing with on-board FPGAs and communication protocols (SPI, I2C, UART, CAN).

The "Value Add"

  • Experience with Python or MATLAB for algorithm development and testing.
  • Familiarity with Low-SWaP (Size, Weight, and Power) design constraints-crucial for drone and space applications.
  • A background in Signal Processing or Robotics (ROS/ROS2).
  • The ability to mentor junior engineers and act as a "Design Authority" for software workstreams.

If you are a motivated engineer who thrives on variety and exciting technical challenges, apply today with your CV.
