Embedded System Engineer l Robotics

U.S. permanent work authorisation required

I’m working with an early-stage robotics / hardtech company building physical systems that operate in real-world field environments.

This is not a narrow firmware-only role.

They’re looking for someone who enjoys working across both hardware and software — embedded firmware, electronics, sensors, wireless communication, board bring-up, hardware validation, and field debugging.

You’ll be helping take embedded systems from prototype into real-world deployment.

Relevant experience could include:

• Embedded C/C++
• FreeRTOS, Zephyr, or similar RTOS
• PCB design / schematic review with Altium, KiCad, or similar
• Hardware bring-up and debugging
• Oscilloscopes, logic analysers, SWD / JTAG
• Field-deployed robotics, drones, aerospace, defence, autonomous systems, or advanced hardware

Nice to have:

• Yocto / Open Embedded
• Embedded Linux gateways or edge compute
• LoRa, XBee, or RF / wireless systems
• OTA updates / bootloaders
• DFM / DFT
• EMI testing or power optimisation

This would suit someone who likes building real things, getting close to hardware, and debugging messy physical-world problems — not just writing code in isolation.

Particularly interested in people from high-bar hardtech environments such as robotics, aerospace, defence tech, drones, autonomous systems, advanced manufacturing, or similar.
