Senior Embedded Firmware Engineer<\/span><\/span><\/b>
<\/span><\/span><\/p>
Basingstoke – Hybrid working<\/span><\/span><\/b>
<\/span><\/span>
<\/span><\/p>
Neupulse is at a turning point.<\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/p>
<\/span>
<\/span>Our wearable neurostimulation device is launching commercially.<\/span>
<\/span><\/span>
<\/span><\/p>
At the heart of that device is firmware. We're looking for a Senior Embedded Firmware Engineer to own it.<\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/p>
<\/span>
<\/span><\/span>The role<\/span><\/span><\/b>
<\/span><\/span><\/p>
Today, our device development is largely handled by an external partner. You'll be our internal technical authority for it — working hand in hand with that partner to keep firmware reliable and compliant now, while building the pathway to bring that capability in -house over time.<\/span>
<\/span><\/span>
<\/span><\/p>
It's hands -on, safety -critical work on a device people wear every day: C/C++ on STM32, FreeRTOS on ARM Cortex -M, low -power and battery -operated, talking to iOS and Android over BLE.<\/span>
<\/span><\/span>
<\/span><\/p>
You'll:<\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/p>
- Own the firmware relationship with our external development partner — direction, reviews, quality, and the verification and release evidence that stands up to regulatory scrutiny<\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/li> - Build the pathway to bring firmware capability in -house — deciding what to internalise and when, and growing the team to do it<\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/li> - Stay hands -on and set the standard: production -quality firmware, reusable frameworks, coding practices and reviews across current and future products<\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/li> - Own security — threat assessment, vulnerability management, and secure device updates<\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/li> - Work shoulder to shoulder with hardware, software, quality and regulatory, keeping everything traceable and compliant with ISO 13485 and IEC 62304<\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/p>You'll likely bring<\/span><\/span><\/b>
<\/span><\/span><\/p>- 5+ years delivering embedded firmware through the full product lifecycle, with a track record of robust releases and clean documentation<\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/li> - Strong experience with FreeRTOS on ARM Cortex -M in safety -critical settings<\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/li> - Real depth in low -power, battery -operated devices that communicate with mobile over BLE<\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/li> - 3+ years in a regulated industry — medical device and IEC 62304 ideally<\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/li> - The credibility to direct an external development partner today, and the appetite to build and lead an in -house capability tomorrow<\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/li> - Fluency in C/C++, embedded architecture, modular design, and disciplined Git -based workflows<\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/li> - A security mindset for embedded firmware (a genuine plus)<\/span>
<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/b>
<\/span><\/span><\/li><\/ul>Why it matters<\/span><\/span><\/b>
<\/span><\/span><\/p>This is firmware that ends up on someone's body, helping them through their day — so reliable, safe, and quietly life -improving really matters.<\/span>
<\/span><\/span>
<\/span><\/p>You'll own how it's built, from working with our external partner today to standing up the in -house capability tomorrow, and watch the impact land with real people.
