Embedded Software Developer

Senior Embedded Software Developer CONTRACT

We are very proud to have been chosen by AFC Energy PLC to join them in an Exclusive Talent Partnership to provide them with contract support during 2026!

Located in the picturesque Surrey countryside, AFC Energy PLC are a UK-based team of energy-tech pioneers on a mission to replace polluting fossil fuel generation with hydrogen fuel cells. They develop hydrogen fuel cell technologies which focus on the displacement of diesel generators in stationary and maritime applications. The technology utilises hydrogen fuel for zero emission electricity generation.

Our first opportunity is for a Contract Senior Embedded Software Developer to strengthen their Controls Team. The main task is to further develop the control software of Hydrogen Fuel-Cell generators and auxiliary systems such as simulators and telematics solutions.

Were looking for someone with the following skills:

• Embedded software development for targets with constrained resources
• Familiar with development for true real-time systems running RTOS
• C
• Python
• Debugger
• Version management
• Issue handling
• Communication buses (CAN, SPI, I2C, ethernet)

It would a bonus if you also have experience in the following:

• SQL
• Matlab/Simulink
• Requirements management
• CD/CI
• Test automation
• Linux
• Javascript
• React

To be considered you must be comfortable working with little supervision and perform hands-on fault racing on physical machines. Some of the work can be completed remotely but there is a need for the individual to be onsite each week, due to the hands-on nature of the work. The initial project is expected to run for around 6 months but there is likely to be additional projects in the future.

If you are interested, please apply or contact Lee Dymott.
