Embedded Software Engineer

We're partnering with a technology-led business developing next-generation embedded systems for professional audio applications. They're looking for an Embedded Software Engineer who enjoys working close to the hardware and taking ideas from concept through to real-world products. This role suits someone who likes owning technical problems, collaborating with multidisciplinary teams, and building robust software that runs in demanding, real-time environments.

What You'll Be Doing

• Designing and building embedded software that underpins complex, high-performance products
• Translating product ideas into practical, well-structured technical solutions
• Working hands-on with hardware to bring new features to life
• Developing reliable, efficient code for constrained and time-sensitive systems
• Creating test approaches that give confidence in quality and performance
• Supporting and improving existing software through debugging and enhancement
• Sharing ideas, reviewing code and contributing to better engineering practices

• Strong experience with C and/or C++ in embedded environments
• Hands-on development using ARM-based platforms
• Comfortable working with low-level interfaces such as SPI, I2C and UART
• Experience building software where timing, reliability and efficiency matter
• Confident using version control and modern development workflows
• Able to work at the hardware/software boundary, including debugging and investigation
• Clear communicator who enjoys working as part of a collaborative engineering team

Nice to Have (But Not Essential)

• Embedded Linux experience (including build systems such as Yocto)
• Real-time operating systems (e.g. FreeRTOS)
• FPGA, DSP or high-speed peripheral integration
• Networking, USB or device driver development
• Exposure to professional audio or signal-processing products

• Work on technically interesting products that blend software, hardware and audio technology
• Be trusted with ownership and influence over your work
• Join a team that values clean design, curiosity and engineering pride
• Competitive package and long-term development opportunities
