The Role:
- Developing and maintaining embedded software solutions for complex engineering systems

- Comfortable working close to hardware and within cross-functional teams
- Any additional skills in modern C++, C#, Python, RTOS, or firmware are highly desirable but not required

- Flexible working: 3 days onsite in Newcastle, 2 days working from home
- A role with huge variety - no two projects are the same
- The chance to play a pivotal part in shaping software direction for a growing team
This is a fantastic opportunity for an Embedded Software Engineer who wants to work on innovative projects in a supportive and collaborative environment, while enjoying the flexibility of hybrid working.
If you're an experienced engineer with a passion for embedded software, we'd love to hear from you.
