- Writing and analyzing software requirements for avionics systems;
- Integration with avionics communication protocols (ARINC429, AFDX, CAN bus, etc.);
- Architectural design of embedded and firmware solutions;
- Development of low-level drivers and firmware for onboard computers using low-level programming languages (e.g., C, C++, Ada95);
-
Participation in hardware testing and avionics certification campaigns.
- Embedded systems and microcontrollers (e.g., STM32, Arduino, Nucleo boards);
- Programming in C, C++, or Ada95;
-
University projects involving sensors, communication protocols, software testing, or PCB design.
- Experience with real-time or safety-critical systems;
- Bare-metal or RTOS-based development and testing;
- Knowledge of communication systems (TCP/IP, UDP, FTP);
- Experience with file systems, custom boards, or validation tools;
-
Basic knowledge of avionics standards and protocols: DO-178C, ARINC 429/664, Mil-1553, CAN bus.
Education : Bachelor's Degree and/or Master's Degree in a STEM field.
Why choose TXT Group:

-
Internship opportunities for insertion purposes or permanent contract, based on the technical skills emerged from the interview
Senior Embedded Software Engineer
@ Embedd 
What we're looking for
At embedd.it, we power hardware-software integration in embedded devices. We turn fragmented semiconductor chip data into configurable digital twins, then deterministically generate code, tests, and documentation – making integration faster, cheaper, and resilient to supply chain shocks.
We’re looking for a true legend – someone with abstract thinking and deep expertise in low-level software development. You’ll build vendor-agnostic tooling for MCU and peripheral integration to solve hardware-software integration once and for all. We work at the intersection of embedded systems, code generation, compilers, and machine learning. It’s your chance to help redefine how low-level development is done.
Responsibilities
- Drive the architecture of the driver structures and system layout
- Define scalable patterns for cross-architectural integration across bare-metal, Zephyr, Linux, and other environments
- Deconstruct complex SoC device trees and translate hardware descriptions into structured internal models for automated reasoning
- Partner with the ML team to shape data and annotation models for AI-driven data-extraction tooling
Qualifications
- 5+ years of experience in embedded systems development, including bare-metal and RTOS-based systems
- Proficiency in C/C++
- Familiarity with firmware configuration, SoC bring-up, and system-level debugging
- Hands-on experience with code generation tools, or low-level compiler/decompiler/emulator technologies
- Strong background in embedded toolchains: compilers, linkers, debuggers, and build systems
- Python or scripting for automation and tooling is a plus
- Experience with functional-safety standards is a plus
Why embedd.it?
- Dynamic, venture-backed team of engineers challenging the status quo 🚀
- Work at the intersection of embedded systems, code generators, compilers, and ML 🤖
- Unusual challenges requiring out-of-the-box abstract thinking 🧠
- Competitive compensation: cash + equity 💰
- Remote work possible 🌍
About Us
embedd.it is a UK-based startup reinventing embedded development. Our platform transforms unstructured semiconductor data into structured digital twins, enabling automatic generation of drivers, tests, and documentation. We're building a single, traceable source of truth to make integration fast, vendor-agnostic, and future-proof.
