Embedded Software Engineer

Embedded Software Engineer (C++ / Linux)

Remote, UK

We're supporting an established, profitable technology company with international engineering teams, developing software for embedded and edge devices operating in resource-constrained environments.

This is a systems-level software engineering role focused on Linux-based devices, not web, cloud, or enterprise applications. The team are particularly interested in engineers who have developed software running directly on Linux-based devices and understand how software, hardware, networking, and operating systems interact within a complete system.

This role will suit engineers who have built software that runs directly on the device itself, rather than engineers whose primary experience is building cloud platforms or backend services around those devices.

What You'll Be Working On

• Developing software for Linux-based embedded and edge devices
• Building features across a distributed device platform
• Working on networking, APIs, and systems integration
• Investigating performance, reliability, and low-level software issues
• Contributing to architecture, design decisions, and engineering best practice
• Collaborating within a small, highly experienced engineering team

What We're Looking For

• Commercial C++ development experience
• Strong Linux knowledge
• Experience developing software for embedded Linux devices, networking equipment, edge devices, or other resource-constrained systems
• Strong debugging and problem-solving skills
• Understanding of how software interacts with hardware, operating systems, networking, and wider system behaviour

Experience with Golang would be advantageous but is not essential.

Why Consider It?

Your code will run on physical devices deployed by organisations worldwide, not on a cloud server. In a small, expert team, your engineering decisions are visible, your ideas are heard, and your impact is immediate.

• Fully remote within the UK
• Significant technical ownership and end-to-end feature responsibility
• Opportunity to influence product direction and architecture
• Collaborative, people-first culture with an international engineering team

Interested?

If you have a background in embedded software, Linux systems development, connected devices, or solving complex low-level engineering problems, we'd love to hear from you.
