Embedded Software Engineer

YT Tech is representing a high-growth Safety-Critical Technology firm that designs systems used globally in healthcare and high-security infrastructure.

Joining a collaborative R&D function, you will be responsible for the development and optimisation of software across a range of RTOS and Embedded Linux platforms. You will design real-time software capable of processing complex sensor data to ensure 24/7 reliability in mission-critical environments.

Key Responsibilities

• Real-Time Systems: Architect and implement firmware using RTOS (FreeRTOS/Zephyr) for high-precision data acquisition.

• Linux Integration: Build and maintain Embedded Linux distributions (Yocto/Buildroot) to support sophisticated application layers.

• Connectivity: Design robust IoT communication stacks using MQTT, BLE, and Wi-Fi for secure cloud-connected devices.

• Hardware/Software Interface: Work at the driver level to optimise sensor performance and hardware-software synchronisation.

• Lifecycle Ownership: Drive the full SDLC within an Agile framework, ensuring all code meets rigorous safety and quality standards.

Must-Have Features:

• C++ Mastery: Commercial experience with modern C++ in an embedded environment.

• OS Experience: A strong background in both RTOS and Embedded Linux.

• IoT Protocols: Proven track record of shipping connected products.

• Low-Level Knowledge: Experience with ARM Cortex-M or similar architectures.

Nice to have's

• Experience with signal processing or sensor fusion algorithms.

• Previous work within regulated industries (e.g., Medical, Defense, or Industrial Automation).

If interested, and you match the criteria above, please apply with your most revent CV and I will be in touch to discuss further.
