- Understanding of hardware functionalities including clock-level issues, interrupts, polling, etc.
- Minimum of 5 years of relevant experience in embedded software development
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field
-
Experience with motion controller systems, such as PID control loops, servo control algorithms, and interfacing with sensors and actuators for motion control applications
- Architect and design embedded firmware for motion control systems with a focus on optimal performance and precision
- Develop end-to-end application and firmware solutions including multi-thread, scheduling optimization, real-time operating systems (RTOS), and bare-metal implementations
- Design custom kernel drivers and APIs specifically tailored for motion control applications and interfacing with sensors and actuators
- Actively contribute to system architecture development and the implementation of new features relevant to motion control
- Design, develop, and thoroughly test firmware for embedded motion control systems
- Stay abreast of emerging technologies and advancements in motion control for product development enhancements
- Undertake debugging, system bring-up, beta testing, and production software development tasks
- Collaborate effectively with both software and hardware teams to ensure successful integration of motion control systems
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.
