Job Description

Do you see opportunity everywhere in anywhere connectivity? Then come and propel your career at Myriota, where the Internet of Things (IoT) meets Space!


At Myriota our mission is audacious yet simple: unlock better outcomes for people and planet, through simple, affordable access to data. We make anywhere connectivity possible through our patented direct-to-satellite technology that is secure, low-cost, low maintenance and really (really) long-battery-life.


One more thing… It works today. This is why our solutions are profitably unlocking vital use cases across a range of industries including agriculture, environmental monitoring, transport, logistics, maritime and defence.


The incredible opportunity

We’re looking for an Embedded Software Manager who thrives on the "people" side of engineering. At Myriota, our software team is made up of brilliant, independent thinkers, each bringing a unique technical perspective to our mission.

We aren't just looking for an individual contributor; we are looking for a Technical Diplomat. Your mission is to serve as the "connective tissue" for the team—fostering a culture of healthy technical debate, building consensus across different architectural approaches, and mentoring a high-performing group to deliver unified, world-class satellite IoT solutions.


Stuff we’ll trust you to do

  • Lead a team of talented embedded software engineers, helping them align on a single, robust path forward while ensuring diverse technical viewpoints are integrated into the final solution.
  • Serve as a coach and mentor, focusing on the professional growth of the team and fostering a collaborative environment where innovation thrives.
  • Guide the team in architecting IoT protocols, balancing individual creativity with the need for extreme reliability and system-wide consistency.
  • Act as the primary technical voice for the software team when collaborating with cloud, network, and hardware engineers.
  • Oversee the validation and security hardening of our systems, ensuring that various technical contributions result in one seamless, high-quality product.


What we’ll like about you

  • Having spent 8-10+ years in the embedded software space, you are a leader who genuinely enjoys the "people" side of engineering. You have a proven ability to mentor talented technical minds, facilitate healthy debate, and build consensus across diverse architectural viewpoints.
  • You are a pragmatic decision-maker. You know how to listen to multiple brilliant ideas and then provide the direction needed to turn those perspectives into a single, cohesive technical strategy.
  • You hold a Bachelor's or postgraduate degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field, providing the theoretical depth to lead a high-performing team.
  • You bring deep, hands-on experience with bare-metal embedded development, shell scripting, and microcontroller-based systems. You are highly proficient in C/C++ and Python, and you’re comfortable leading deep-dive code reviews.
  • You have navigated the full product lifecycle within a fast-paced start-up or high-growth ecosystem. You understand the balance between rapid innovation and mission-critical reliability.
  • You are skilled at building trust, navigating different communication styles, and ensuring every engineer feels empowered and aligned with the mission.

  • Driven by Purpose: Our mission creates meaningful impacts for both individuals and the planet.
  • Shared Values: We embrace values that include Thinking Big, Simplifying, Collaborating, and Staying Authentic.
