IOT Software Engineer – Edinburgh
Are you a software engineer with a passion for connecting embedded systems to the cloud? This is a rare opportunity to join a fast-moving, R&D-driven business building next-generation IoT solutions with real-world impact across multiple global industries.
I’m recruiting for a high-growth engineering organisation working on a complex data ecosystem, involving embedded devices, network connectivity, and scalable cloud-based software. You'll play a critical role in taking data from edge devices to the cloud and onward to end users through APIs or graphical interfaces.
This is a hands-on role that spans cloud architecture, Python development, embedded integration, and light GUI work. You’ll work alongside talented engineers across software, hardware, and systems to bring reliable and innovative technology to life.
Key Responsibilities for the IOT Software Engineer job:
* Build and maintain robust Python-based services on Azure
* Integrate edge devices with network infrastructure (cellular, satellite, etc.)
* Maintain and support embedded C components on hardware platforms
* Develop simple Windows-based GUI tools (preferably in Qt for Python)
* Create scalable APIs and interfaces for end users and third-party systems
* Ensure system performance through automated testing and monitoring
* Collaborate with cross-functional teams in a structured Agile environment
Ideal Experience for the IOT Software Engineer job:
* Hands-on experience with Azure cloud services
* Basic to moderate embedded C experience
* Familiarity with GUI frameworks (Qt/PyQt or similar)
* Experience with version control (Git), testing, and CI/CD pipelines
* Understanding of system reliability and data integrity in IoT pipelines
* Comfortable working across software, firmware, and cloud
This is a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of embedded systems and cloud software within a collaborative, forward-thinking engineering team. You'll gain real ownership of projects, enjoy hybrid flexibility, and work on technology that has a tangible impact across multiple industries.
