About the role
This is an exciting opportunity to join a fast-moving, innovation-driven engineering organisation that is expanding its research and development capabilities. The business is deeply committed to continuous improvement - of its technology, its processes, and its people - and is now looking for an experienced Software Engineer to help drive the next generation of their product line.
In this role, you\'ll work at the forefront of firmware and embedded development, contributing directly to a busy new-product pipeline and playing a key role in bringing advanced, high-performance devices to market. It\'s an ideal position for someone who enjoys solving complex technical challenges, and collaborating closely with multidisciplinary teams to refine, test and optimise hardware and firmware systems.
If you are passionate about designing high-quality electronic products, improving engineering processes, and shaping smarter, more capable instrumentation technologies, this is a rare opportunity to make a meaningful impact in a global environment.
Responsibilities
* Design and develop embedded and real-time software, addressing timing constraints, concurrency, hardware interaction, and system-level challenges.
* Lead and contribute to the full product development lifecycle, from initial concept and architecture through implementation, testing, release, and ongoing product support.
* Apply Digital Signal Processing techniques within embedded applications to meet product performance and functionality requirements.
* Manage projects and tasks effectively, including producing clear, comprehensive technical documentation to support development, verification, and long-term maintenance.
Requirements
* 8+ years in C/C++ for microprocessors/microcontrollers on bare-metal and RTOS platforms (QNX, Nucleus, OSE), with strong experience in Python and/or C#.
* Proficient with Atmel/Microchip Studio, UML design practices, Matlab/Simulink, and software configuration/bug-tracking tools such as SVN and Mantis.
* Skilled in field buses (Modbus, MBUS, BACnet, Bluetooth, LoRaWAN) and networking/serial protocols including Ethernet, CAN, RS232, AS-Interface; solid understanding of SPI/I²C and interpreting hardware datasheets.
* Strong grasp of design-for-test principles and good working knowledge of electronic hardware and embedded debugging.
