Associate Engineer, Software Tools in Edinburgh

Come join Analog Devices (ADI) – a place where Innovation meets Impact. For more than 55 years, Analog Devices has been inventing new breakthrough technologies that transform lives. At ADI you will work alongside the brightest minds to collaborate on solving complex problems that matter from autonomous vehicles, drones and factories to augmented reality and remote healthcare.

ADI fosters a culture that focuses on employees through beneficial programs, aligned goals, continuous learning opportunities, and practices that create a more sustainable future.

About Analog Devices

Analog Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ: ) is a global semiconductor leader that bridges the physical and digital worlds to enable breakthroughs at the Intelligent Edge. ADI combines analog, digital, and software technologies into solutions that help drive advancements in digitized factories, mobility, and digital healthcare, combat climate change, and reliably connect humans and the world.

About the Role

You will join a multidisciplinary team developing:

• A custom compiler toolchain that translates high‐level BMS configuration rules into optimized machine‐level instructions for our battery‐management ICs.
• A React‐based front‐end application that allows engineers to visualise IC behaviour, configure system parameters, and validate designs.
• A Node.js backend service that interfaces with the compiler, manages data models, serves configuration artefacts, and integrates with silicon evaluation tools.

You'll be supported by experienced engineers while working on real production‐grade tools used throughout the company.

Key Responsibilities:

Compiler Development

• Contribute to the design and implementation of compiler modules including lexing, parsing, code generation.
• Work with hardware engineers to understand IC architecture, memory maps, registers, and hardware execution models.
• Help create automated tests that verify correctness across a wide range of input programs and battery use cases.

Full‐Stack Tooling Development

• Develop new React components and pages for visualising configuration models, hardware states, and generated outputs.
• Build responsive UI features such as interactive configuration editors, charts, dashboards, and validation tools.
• Contribute to API design (REST or GraphQL) for transporting configuration data and artefacts between the UI, backend, and compiler.
• Write automated tests for both front‐end and backend components.

General Responsibilities

• Participate in design discussions, code reviews, and sprint planning.
• Debug and troubleshoot issues across the full stack — from compiler output to UI behaviour.
• Collaborate with embedded, systems, and algorithm engineers to integrate end‐to‐end toolchain functionality.
• Support deployment, CI/CD workflows, and documentation of the tools you help build.

What You'll Bring (Required Skills)

• Degree (or final‐year status) in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Electronics, or related field.
• Basic knowledge of React, JavaScript/TypeScript, or modern front‐end development principles.
• Foundational understanding of backend development — ideally Node.js.
• Strong understanding of algorithms, data structures, and programming language concepts.
• Interest in compilers, embedded systems, or full‐stack development (or all three!).
• Curiosity about batteries, electronics, or hardware–software interactions.

Bonus Points (Nice‐to‐Have)

• Experience developing React apps or Node.js services beyond small scripts.
• Exposure to embedded systems, microcontrollers, or register‐level programming.
• Familiarity with battery technology or automotive software.
• Awareness of quality standards such as ISO 26262 or Automotive SPICE.
• Experience working with evaluation boards, firmware, or low‐level debugging tools.

Join a team that values innovation, learning, and technical excellence.
