If you’re passionate about working on mission-critical projects in a fast-paced, dynamic environment, we want to hear from you.

Position Overview:
We are looking for an experienced Embedded Software Architect to lead the design and development of advanced embedded systems for complex applications.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Define the architecture for embedded software systems, ensuring scalability, performance, and security

  • Work closely with hardware engineers to ensure seamless integration of software with cutting-edge hardware platforms
  • Drive best practices in software design, coding standards, and testing methodologies
  • Provide technical leadership and mentorship to software engineering teams
  • Collaborate with product management and stakeholders to align software architecture with business objectives
  • Support system testing and debugging in both lab and field environments

Requirements:

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
  • 10+ years of experience in embedded software development, with a focus on architecture and design
  • Extensive experience with C/C++ and real-time operating systems (RTOS)
  • Strong understanding of hardware-software interaction, including device drivers, communication protocols (e.g., CAN, UART, SPI, I2C), and low-level programming
  • Experience with software development in a regulated industry (defence, aerospace, automotive)
  • Knowledge of safety-critical software design and security protocols
  • Proven track record of designing scalable, high-performance embedded systems
  • Ability to work under pressure in a fast-paced environment with evolving requirements
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail

Desirable:

  • Experience with modern software development practices (Agile, DevOps, CI/CD)
  • Familiarity with cybersecurity principles and techniques relevant to embedded systems
  • Experience working in a defence or highly regulated environment is highly preferred
