We are hiring a Software Engineer in Real-Time Embedded Control Systems for a permanent role, with contract considered for the right individual. The position is based in Glasgow or offered as a hybrid role. We are looking for someone who thinks like a control engineer, working on deterministic timing, signal flows, and real-world data in a safety-critical environment. The role focuses on hard real-time embedded software for fire control and beam director control, within a team that values control-system discipline and hardware-software integration.
