We are partnering with a globally recognised British audio engineering brand to appoint a Software Engineer (DSP) into their R&D function.
This is not a generic embedded role. This is firmware development at the heart of premium streaming audio systems – where your code directly shapes sound quality.
The role
You’ll develop the embedded firmware that runs on SHARC DSP processors, forming the core of next‑generation audio products.
Working closely with acoustics, electronics and firmware engineers, you’ll be involved from early concept through to product release:
* Developing real‑time embedded software for new products
* Designing DSP algorithms in MATLAB and implementing them in C
* Building and optimising audio signal processing pipelines
* Writing low‑level drivers for on‑chip and PCB peripherals
* Bringing up DSP and digital audio circuitry on early prototype boards
* Contributing to architecture decisions and processor interface design
* Participating in peer code reviews and technical documentation
You will be hands‑on with oscilloscopes, logic analysers and audio test equipment – this is proper engineering, close to the hardware.
What they’re looking for
* 3+ years commercial C/C++ experience
* Strong real‑time embedded systems background
* Understanding of DSP concepts (filter design, FFT, sample rate conversion, dynamic range control)
* Experience working on complex electronics products
* Familiar with Git, Jira and Agile environments
* Degree in Electronic Engineering, Computer Science or similar
Experience with Analog Devices SHARC or audio DSP is advantageous. A genuine interest in audio is essential.
Why this role?
You’ll be joining a business built around engineering integrity and a deep passion for music. The R&D team works at the centre of product innovation, collaborating internationally and maintaining exceptionally high technical standards.
If you’re an embedded engineer who wants your work to influence something people genuinely care about – how their music sounds – this is a rare opportunity.
