Salary: £42,900 - 48,700 per year Requirements:
* We require a skilled Senior Embedded Software Engineer with over 5 years of engineering experience in a production, R&D, or consultancy setting. You should have a proven track record of delivering embedded software on bespoke hardware or microcontroller platforms. Strong hands-on programming skills in C/C++ for real-time embedded environments are essential. You need to be familiar with structured development lifecycles and systems engineering processes, as well as functional safety practices for automotive or high-reliability products, such as ISO 26262. A solid understanding of coding guidelines and standards like MISRA and AUTOSAR is necessary. You should also have the capability to produce high-quality technical documentation, including requirements, test plans, reports, and user guides. Practical experience in testing and validation on bench rigs and hardware prototypes is expected, along with direct interaction with external stakeholders to address technical questions.
Responsibilities:
* In this interim role, you will lead and deliver embedded software work packages across assigned projects. You will translate system-level requirements into clear software specifications and define and implement software architecture for real-time control systems. Your responsibilities will include developing and verifying high-integrity embedded C/C++ firmware, integrating application-level code with platform and base software components, and supporting hardware bring-up, debugging, and system-level diagnostics. Additionally, you will participate in design reviews, providing expert input on software decisions and liaising directly with customers and suppliers to resolve technical issues. You will collaborate closely with electronics, controls, and systems engineering teams to ensure work follows relevant quality, safety, and engineering standards.
