Embedded Software Engineer (C++/Embedded Linux)

Embedded Software Engineer (C++/Embedded Linux)

Permanent role, Office Based in High Wycombe, salary £40000 - £60000 DOE

Are you an Embedded Software Engineer who has actually developed embedded products from the ground up?

We're working with an established technology business seeking a Software Engineer to join their growing development team. This is a genuinely embedded role, and we're specifically looking for engineers with hands-on firmware/software development experience rather than general software developers whose primary exposure to C/C++ has been outside of an embedded environment.

You'll be developing next-generation network and cable test equipment, working on Linux-based embedded systems, touchscreen user interfaces, and cloud-connected products used by customers worldwide.

What we're looking for

Essential:

Strong commercial C/C++ development experience
Proven embedded software/firmware development background
Linux / Embedded Linux development experience
Experience working close to hardware
Product development experience within an engineering environmentHighly desirable:

Qt, Qt Quick and/or QML
Networking knowledge including Ethernet/IP, Wi-Fi, VLAN, ARP, LLDP and SNMP
Experience within networking, communications, test & measurement, or electronic products
Experience using AI tools to improve development workflows, testing, debugging, documentation and software delivery

Additional desirable skills

Whilst there is exposure to cloud technologies and modern software practices, these are secondary to the core requirement for embedded expertise:

Python
Microsoft Azure / Cloud Services
CI/CD
Machine Learning

About You

We're looking for approximately 3+ years of relevant experience, although we're far more interested in the quality and relevance of your embedded development experience than the exact number of years on your CV.

If you're passionate about embedded systems, enjoy solving problems close to the hardware, and want to work on innovative connected products, we'd love to hear from you.
