Job Description: Our client, based in Cambridge is looking for an Embedded Software Engineer with an appropriate background in embedded software and a good degree in a relevant subject, such as electronics engineering or computer science. Main purpose of the job Working on wireless projects, you will design and write embedded software for complex electronics systems. In most cases this will involve working with one or more software or hardware engineers as part of a multidisciplinary project team. You may also participate in meetings with clients from time to time. We define embedded software as software working at the electronics/software boundary and/or in a constrained environment (e.g. tight memory, low power). The Wireless Software Group develops software for wireless applications. Particular strengths are in low power, low cost radio implementations, with application areas such as telecommunications, healthcare, industrial and consumer goods. The group carries out software design and architecture, as well as coding, usually in C. Other languages are occasionally used, such as assembly and Java, as required. Specific responsibilities In this role you will be responsible for: The design, development and test of whole software subsystems, sometimes on more than one project at once The design of interfaces between your code and that of other software engineers on the team Delivery of high-quality code, compliant with the client's requirements Carrying out your specific project tasks within the timescales and budgets agreed with the project manager Defining regression tests to ensure that your software is robust and complies with the specification Due to the nature of the work and role, there may be a small amount of travel involved from time to time. Minimum requirements With an appropriate background in embedded software, you will have a good degree in a relevant subject, such as electronic engineering or computer science. Experience in embedded software in C Experience in communications software Understanding of both hardware and software Understanding of build systems and source control Experience of the following would be advantageous; Understanding of wireless communications systems Windows programming One or more scripting languages
