An innovative engineering consultancy is looking for a talented Embedded Software Enginee r to join its growing team in Cambridge.

Working on a diverse range of projects, you'll help turn complex engineering challenges into practical, high-quality technologies that make a tangible difference to patients and clinicians.

• Commercial software development experience in C and/or C++; experience with both is advantageous.
• Working knowledge of Python for scripting, tooling and test automation.
• Embedded software development, including RTOS or bare-metal programming.
• Hardware interfacing, electronics bring-up and system testing.

You don't need to tick every box. A strong foundation in software development, a willingness to learn and an interest in engineering high-quality products are what matter most.
