Tired of code that never sees the light of day?
Ready to build real-world solutions that blend software and cutting-edge hardware?
We're on the lookout for an Embedded Software Engineer to join a highly collaborative engineering team working on complex systems with real-world impact — from concept and architecture through to deployment and refinement.
What you'll be doing:
Building embedded software for real-time systems (bare metal or Linux-based)
Designing, developing, testing and debugging code in C/C++ for microcontrollers or embedded processors
Integrating hardware and software across a variety of platforms and use cases
Using tools like schematics, oscilloscopes, or logic analyzers to bring hardware to life
Collaborating closely with hardware, firmware, and systems engineers
Helping improve development practices — mentoring junior engineers, reviewing code, and sharing knowledge
Occasionally travelling to test sites to put your work into action (think real-world systems, not endless test rigs)
Tech you'll need to know (or be keen to learn):
Solid experience with embedded systems, ideally using STM32, PIC, or similar
Working knowledge of RTOS, bare metal development, or Linux for embedded
Source control (Git), unit testing, and structured dev processes
Experience debugging low-level code with tools like JTAG, oscilloscopes, etc.
Bonus if you’ve dabbled with Docker, CI/CD for embedded, or hardware-in-the-loop testing
What we're looking for:
A problem solver with a deep interest in embedded software and electronics
Strong communicator — you’ll need to explain complex ideas simply
A team player who enjoys mentoring, collaboration, and driving forward best practices
Degree qualified (or equivalent real-world experience in software/electronic engineering)
Why this role?
You’ll get to work on meaningful projects, collaborate with brilliant engineers, and see your code have real impact in physical environments — not just buried in the back-end. Plus, the team actually values clean, elegant solutions over hacks and shortcuts.
Interested?

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.
