I’m currently working with a fast-growing Cambridge-based technology company who are looking for an Embedded Software Engineer to join their expanding engineering team on a hybrid basis!


The company operates at the forefront of embedded systems and electronics, delivering innovative products across industries such as IoT, advanced manufacturing, healthcare technology and smart devices. They are known for building high-performance, reliable systems and have a strong reputation within the Cambridge technology space.


They have a collaborative engineering team made up of hardware, software and systems engineers, and in this role you’ll be working on the development of embedded firmware for next-generation products. You’ll be heavily involved in low-level development using C/C++, working closely with hardware teams to bring up new devices and optimise performance.


You’ll be working across the full development lifecycle, from initial concept and prototyping through to production, testing and deployment. The role offers strong opportunities to take ownership of projects and influence technical decisions as the products evolve.


The office is based in Cambridge, and they are looking for someone to be onsite 2–3 days per week. Sponsorship cannot be offered for this role.


Technical Requirements:

  • Strong experience with embedded C/C++ development
  • Experience working with microcontrollers (e.g. ARM Cortex-M) or embedded Linux systems
  • Understanding of hardware/software interaction (SPI, I2C, UART, GPIO)
  • Experience with debugging tools (JTAG, oscilloscopes, logic analysers)
  • Experience with version control (e.g. Git)
  • Good communication skills and ability to work with cross-functional teams
  • Comfortable working in a hands-on, engineering-focused environment
  • Interest in learning new technologies and progressing technically.


Nice to Have:

  • Experience with wireless protocols (BLE, Wi-Fi, Zigbee, LoRa)
  • Exposure to cloud integration (AWS/Azure IoT)
  • Python or scripting experience for testing/automation
  • Knowledge of CI/CD pipelines in embedded environments
  • Experience with low-power or battery-operated devices


Salary/Benefits:

£60,000–£80,000.

Bonus, Pension Contribution, Private Medical Insurance, 25 days holiday plus Bank Holidays


If this sounds of interest, please apply and I can give you a call.
