Job Description
We are looking for an Embedded Linux Engineer who will be responsible for the embedded development of portable medical monitoring devices and associated equipment.
Your role:
- Design and develop software and firmware for mobile cardiac monitoring devices, embedded systems, and IoT platforms using C, C++, and Python.
- Define software architecture and specifications; create detailed design documents aligned with product requirements.
- Develop embedded Linux applications, network socket-based services, and device drivers; troubleshoot and maintain Linux-based systems.
- Perform system-level debugging and board bring-up using test equipment like oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and protocol analyzers.
-
Ensure security, reliability, and maintainability of embedded systems across the full development lifecycle.
- Minimum of Bachelor’s in Computer or Electrical Engineering (advanced degree preferred).
- Minimum 5 years of firmware development experience in an FDA regulated environment.
- Strong level programming skills in C, C++, and Python for real time environments.
- Proven experience with embedded Linux development.
- Experience reading and understanding circuit board schematics and electronic component datasheets.
-
You must be able to successfully perform the following minimum Physical, Cognitive and Environmental job requirements with or without accommodation for this position.
We believe that we are better together than apart. For our office-based teams, this means working in-person at least 3 days per week.

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.
