Embedded Software Engineer

Embedded Software Engineer (C++ / Linux)

Remote, UK

We're supporting an established, profitable technology company with international engineering teams, developing software for embedded and edge devices operating in resource-constrained environments.

This is a systems-level software engineering role focused on Linux-based devices, not web, cloud, or enterprise applications. The team are particularly interested in engineers who have developed software running directly on Linux-based devices and understand how software, hardware, networking, and operating systems interact within a complete system.

This role will suit engineers who have built software that runs directly on the device itself, rather than engineers whose primary experience is building cloud platforms or backend services around those devices.

What You'll Be Working On

Developing software for Linux-based embedded and edge devices

Building features across a distributed device platform

Working on networking, APIs, and systems integration

Investigating performance, reliability, and low-level software issues

Contributing to architecture, design decisions, and engineering best practice

Collaborating within a small, highly experienced engineering team

What We're Looking For

Commercial C++ development experience

Strong Linux knowledge

Experience developing software for embedded Linux devices, networking equipment, edge devices, or other resource-constrained systems

Strong debugging and problem-solving skills

Understanding of how software interacts with hardware, operating systems, networking, and wider system behaviour

Experience with Golang would be advantageous but is not essential.

Why Consider It?

Your code will run on physical devices deployed by organisations worldwide, not on a cloud server. In a small, expert team, your engineering decisions are visible, your ideas are heard, and your impact is immediate.

Fully remote within the UK

Significant technical ownership and end-to-end feature responsibility

Opportunity to influence product direction and architecture

Collaborative, people-first culture with an international engineering team

Interested?

If you have a background in embedded software, Linux systems development, connected devices, or solving complex low-level engineering problems, we'd love to hear from you.
