An established engineering and technology company is seeking an Embedded Software Engineer to play a key role in developing lowand#8209;level software across its next generation of embedded products.
andnbsp;andnbsp;
This is a handsand#8209;on technical role with significant influence, working close to the hardware and contributing across the full software lifecycle. Youandrsquo;ll be responsible for developing robust embedded solutions, enabling new hardware platforms, and ensuring reliable system performance on ARMand#8209;based architectures.
andnbsp;andnbsp;
Youandrsquo;ll work across device drivers, bootloaders, kernel configuration, and Yoctoand#8209;based Linux builds, collaborating closely with hardware, firmware, and wider engineering teams to deliver highand#8209;quality, productionand#8209;ready software.
andnbsp;andnbsp;
Key Responsibilities
- Develop and maintain lowand#8209;level device drivers for ARMand#8209;based platforms.
- Design, implement, and optimise Embedded C software for constrained environments.
- Own and enhance bootloader functionality and hardware bringand#8209;up.
- Build, customise, and maintain Yoctoand#8209;based Linux distributions.
- Configure, integrate, and debug the Linux kernel for new and existing platforms.
