Archangel engineers design and deploy low‑SWA embedded devices to enable edge AI in the air and on the ground. These devices incorporate cameras, IMUs, LIDARs, radios (4G, LoRaWAN, mesh), compute, batteries and more. To deliver compelling products we need to get the most out of the hardware devices and software we build.
Role Responsibilities
You will capture requirements, design, build, and test software for our small‑volume, fully functioning edge compute devices. This includes developing and integrating software or firmware in the following areas:
* Drivers
* Boot logic
* Board bring‑up / testing
* Deep learning inference
* Cameras and ISPs
* Wireless Mesh & IoT communications
* Battery power monitoring and GPS/GNSS positioning
Additional responsibilities include:
* Support our development teams with rapid prototyping of PCBs
* Liaise with other development teams to integrate various components
* Research and select new microcontrollers and embedded systems to prototype new products or features on
* Assist in testing of software and devices, e.g. range testing radios, measuring solar charging efficiency or deep learning model accuracy in real‑world tests
Requirements
* BSc or MSc degree in Electronic Engineering, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related engineering field
* Experience delivering functioning commercial embedded software
* Excellent C/C++ skills and familiarity with Python and object‑oriented programming
* Understanding of Linux and kernel programming (device trees) as well as interfaces such as SPI, UART, CAN, and USB
* Proficiency developing for bare‑metal and embedded devices (e.g., STM32, ARM Cortex‑M0, RTOS)
* Ability to travel for events and field tests in the UK and abroad up to 10% of the time
Experience and/or understanding of one or more of the components or peripherals in our embedded devices is desirable:
* Camera modules, sensors, and ISPs
* Modern embedded wireless technologies and standards (LoRa, Wi‑Fi, 4G, mesh, etc.)
* Experience with battery technologies and knowledge of control theory
* Deploying software on Nvidia Jetson, Raspberry Pi, or other ARM devices
Highlight the following relevant areas if they match your skills:
* Embedded software optimization
* Power profiling and power optimization
* Interest and experience in the drone / UAS space
* Embedded programming on UAVs or robots
* Rapid prototyping of hardware and electronics devices
* Understanding of PCB design and manufacture
* Understanding of 3D modelling and manufacture (CNC, 3D printing)
Location
This is an office‑based role in Oxford, UK.
Benefits
* Opportunity to make a measurable difference in cutting‑edge technology
* Fast‑paced work environment with a world‑class team
* Merit‑based compensation
* 25 days holiday + UK bank holidays
* Relocation support package
* Team socials
* Perks that evolve frequently (free Monday team lunch, Cycle2work scheme, private medical insurance, yearly voucher)
Security Clearance
Due to the sensitive nature of some of our work, candidates will be expected to obtain and maintain the necessary security clearance for this role.
