- Collaborate with hardware engineers to ensure seamless integration between software and hardware components.
- Optimize system performance, memory usage, and power consumption for embedded platforms.
- Conduct code reviews, unit testing, and continuous integration to ensure code quality and maintainability.
- Develop and maintain documentation for code, design decisions, and technical specifications.
- Troubleshoot, analyze, and resolve complex issues related to hardware/software interaction.
- Participate in system architecture design and contribute to long-term product roadmaps.
-
Mentor junior developers and help establish best practices in embedded development.
- Bachelors or Masters degree in Electronics, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related discipline.
- 10+ years of hands-on experience in embedded systems development using C++.
- Strong understanding of microcontrollers, microprocessors, and embedded hardware.
- Solid experience with RTOS platforms or bare-metal programming.
- Proficiency in hardware interfacing protocols.
- Experience with version control systems like Git, and familiarity with CI/CD pipelines.
- Familiarity with debugging tools such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and JTAG debuggers.
- Working knowledge of Linux-based systems and cross-compilation toolchains is a plus.
- Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills.
-
Strong communication and collaboration abilities in cross-functional teams.
- Experience in automotive, IoT, industrial automation, or consumer electronics domains.
- Familiarity with safety-critical systems and standards.
- Exposure to Python or scripting languages for test automation.
-
Experience with embedded Linux or device driver development is an advantage
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.
