- Working directly with customers to understand and solve challenging technical problems
- Commercial embedded Linux development
- Strong C or C++ programming skills
- Experience with ARM-based SoCs or embedded MCU platforms
- Knowledge of device trees, Linux user space and kernel space
- Experience integrating software with hardware
- An adaptable mindset and an interest in working across varied technologies
Experience with some of the following would be highly beneficial:
- Python, C# or another scripting language for tooling and test automation
- Board bring-up and reading electronic schematics
- DSP, algorithms, communication protocols or state machines
- OpenCPI, STICS or SOSA
- Industrial, medical, communications or defence projects
This position would suit a well-rounded embedded engineer who enjoys variety, wants exposure to the complete product lifecycle and is comfortable working at the boundary between software and electronics.
You'll receive a strong overall package, ongoing technical development and the opportunity to work on genuinely varied engineering challenges within a friendly and highly capable team.
