Embedded Software Engineer
We are a British—Ukrainian air defence tech company building distributed systems across the frontline. We are looking for an Embedded Software Engineer who will take full ownership of firmware and embedded systems running on edge devices in harsh, real-world environments.
Our core value is impact for Ukraine: we build technology that makes a real difference on the actual battlefield, not in labs or on paper specs. We operate with a deep-tech mindset, pushing new technologies where engineering rigor truly matters. We value ownership and responsibility—people who execute, deliver, and stand behind the results.
Key Responsibilities
- Firmware Development: Develop firmware for STM32 (ARM Cortex-M) and ESP32 microcontroller series.
- Embedded Linux: Configuration and development for Raspberry Pi.
- Peripheral Integration: Work with I2C, SPI, UART, CAN and other protocols.
- Host-Side Development: Write supporting software, automation scripts, and monitoring systems in Python.
System Design: Design architecture for industrial solutions with high fault tolerance; build reliable systems where operational stability is the priority.
Requirements
Must Have
- 2+ years of experience in embedded systems development
- Deep knowledge of C/C++ for microcontrollers
- Experience with FreeRTOS (architecture, semaphores, queues)
- Ability to read electrical schematics and use measurement equipment (oscilloscope, logic analyzer)
- Understanding of stable industrial system development principles (watchdogs, error handling, operation in interference conditions)
English level: Intermediate or higher
Strong Plus
- Experience in PCB design (Altium Designer, KiCad, or EasyEDA)
- Experience with ROS and ROS2
- Rapid prototyping skills: working with 3D printers (FDM/SLA) for creating enclosures or mounts
- Experience with network protocols (MQTT, HTTP, WebSocket) on ESP32/Linux
