Gallagher is a global leader in high-tech solutions, renowned for innovation and excellence. With a presence in over 160 countries, we protect some of the world’s highest security environments and agricultural businesses.
At Gallagher, we don’t just imagine the future - we build it.
The Tech That’s Changing The Game
As part of Gallagher’s Animal Management division, eShepherd™ is revolutionising livestock management.
Our breakthrough virtual fencing solution empowers farmers to monitor, move, and manage cattle from anywhere. Using GPS-enabled, solar-powered neckbands, farmers can create digital fence lines from their phone - transforming land use, reducing labour, and improving both environmental and animal welfare outcomes.
This is innovation with real-world impact on pasture health, productivity, and profitability.
We need a Test Engineer who’s passionate about quality and ready to help us deliver embedded systems that perform flawlessly in the toughest environments.
What You’ll Tackle
You’ll be a hands-on guardian of product quality, designing and executing test cases that keep our firmware rock-solid.
From manual test execution to developing automated scripts, you’ll collaborate closely with developers to uncover, document, and resolve issues before they ever reach our customers.
Your work will help ensure every device we ship meets the highest standards of reliability and performance. You’ll analyse logs, validate features across embedded systems and cloud platforms, and champion continuous improvement every step of the way.
What You’re Made Of
You’re methodical, curious, and driven by a passion for getting things right. You thrive in agile environments, love collaborating to solve problems, and don’t rest until the details are nailed down.
Here’s What You Bring To The Herd
- A degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Mechatronics, or a related field
- 3+ years of manual testing experience in collaborative development teams
- Skill in writing and executing automated test scripts (e.g., Zephyr, Jira, Bitbucket)
- The ability to dig into raw device logs and cloud data to uncover hidden issues
- Clear, precise communication—no jargon, just clarity
- Strong troubleshooting instincts and an eye for detail
- Designing and developing tools and systems with an AI-first mindset
-
Familiarity with embedded systems, IoT architecture, and modern app testing
- SQL databases
- CI/CD pipelines
- Cloud platforms
-
Security and performance testing
- Be part of a purpose-driven company making a real difference in agriculture
- Work with a supportive, innovative, and passionate team
-
Flexible working arrangements and long-term career growth
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.
