Job Description
Fed up designing embedded software that never makes it past PowerPoint?
This lot actually build the tough stuff, real, high-integrity embedded systems that end up in places where failure is not an option. Think proper hardware, demanding environments, and code that genuinely keeps the lights on (or the plane in the air).
Unlike the endless loops of “concept work”, you’ll get your hands dirty with next-gen embedded software . Full architectural ownership , deep dives into bootloaders, BIOS, BSPs - you name it. This is where your low-level Linux wizardry actually matters.
They exist to tackle the gnarly problems that come with embedded systems in mission-critical sectors. No fluff, no spin, just a team that loves solving hard problems for hardware that needs to work, first time, every time.
You’ll have space to shape architecture , guide strategy, and steer a collaborative engineering crew that values brains over bravado. Flexible working, solid benefits, and the trust to get on with it. If you love register-level programming and making systems bulletproof, you’ll feel right at home.
Who’ll thrive here? Someone who’s a natural puzzle-solver. Someone who can talk to hardware teams without using a whiteboard as a crutch. Someone who’s done the bootloader and BSP slog before and still wants more. And yeah, you’ll need to be comfortable calling out bad ideas when you see them.
Fancy doing embedded software that actually matters?
