Help shape the next generation of intelligent LED cabin lighting for commercial aviation. This is a hands-on role building robust, Real Time Embedded software from the ground up, from architecture and algorithms through to implementation, verification, and delivery for safety-critical use. What you'll do Own the architecture & design: Define software structure, interfaces, and interactions with hardware and other systems; produce design docs and lead peer reviews. Build from first principles: Develop bare-metal/RTOS firmware in C for microcontrollers and programmable logic devices. Low-level development: Write drivers and Real Time control software; interface with peripherals (eg, temperature sensors, I²C, SPI, UART, CAN). Platform fundamentals: Develop and maintain bootloaders, secure update mechanisms, and modular, object-oriented components where appropriate. Hands-on debug: Triage HW/SW interactions using oscilloscopes, logic/protocol analysers; comfortable doing fine soldering/rework as needed. Verification & documentation: Deliver fully documented designs, implementation plans, and contribute across unit, integration, and system testing. Technical leadership: Mentor a graduate software engineer and set engineering standards within the team. What you'll bring Essential ? Significant experience (ideally 10-15 years ) in Embedded software/firmware for Real Time or bare-metal systems. Expert-level C for low-level Embedded development; strong Microprocessor/Microcontroller architecture knowledge. Proven delivery of drivers, peripheral bring-up, and hardware integration. Lab confidence: oscilloscopes, logic/protocol analysers; comfortable with board-level investigation and occasional soldering. Version control ( Git ) and Agile practices. Clear, methodical documentation and the ability to own solutions end-to-end. Strong communication and the autonomy to hit the ground running. Desirable ? Safety-critical/high-integrity experience (eg DO-178C, ISO 26262, IEC 61508 ). FPGA or other low-level hardware programming exposure. CI/CD and automated test familiarity. Working arrangement Onboarding: Expect to be on-site 4 days/week for the first 2-3 months to immerse in the lab, hardware, and product context. Thereafter: Hybrid pattern of 3 days a week with ongoing lab collaboration as projects require. Benefits 25 days annual leave (plus bank holiday) Company-wide Christmas shutdown (allocated from leave allowance) 5% employer pension contribution Annual bonus scheme based on company and individual performance 37.5-hour work week Early finish Fridays 1pm every week Free annual eye test Cycle to Work scheme Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) for confidential support If you thrive on low-level C, enjoy architecting clean solutions, and like rolling up your sleeves in the lab we'd love to hear from you!
