We have an exciting opportunity for a Senior Embedded Software Engineer to join our client, in Eastcote, Northamptonshire. My client works with some of the biggest names in elite sport. They are growing their passionate and enthusiastic team to work on commercial tech projects within the global sports industry. Working as part of this dedicated, multi-disciplined group, you will be involved in the development of greenfield solutions that will change and disrupt elements of the global sports industry forever. What they can offer the Senior Embedded Software Engineer: Forget working on a mesh network monitoring soil moisture level, or a set of scales that connect to Strava. Working for my client, the Senior Embedded Software Engineer will be working alongside initiative-driven problem solvers on exciting new and pre-release products set to change the world, beginning with elite sport. Reporting to the Lead Embedded Systems Engineer, your expertise will be vital to the direction and implementation of robust embedded systems.
