Our wearable neurostimulation device is launching commercially.
At the heart of that device is firmware. We’re looking for a Senior Embedded Firmware Engineer to own it.
The role
Today, our device development is largely handled by an external partner. You’ll be our internal technical authority for it — working hand in hand with that partner to keep firmware reliable and compliant now, while building the pathway to bring that capability in-house over time.
It’s hands-on, safety-critical work on a device people wear every day: C/C++ on STM32, FreeRTOS on ARM Cortex-M, low-power and battery-operated, talking to iOS and Android over BLE.
You’ll:
- Own the firmware relationship with our external development partner — direction, reviews, quality, and the verification and release evidence that stands up to regulatory scrutiny
- Build the pathway to bring firmware capability in-house — deciding what to internalise and when, and growing the team to do it
- Stay hands‑on and set the standard: production‑quality firmware, reusable frameworks, coding practices and reviews across current and future products
- Own security — threat assessment, vulnerability management, and secure device updates
- Work shoulder to shoulder with hardware, software, quality and regulatory, keeping everything traceable and compliant with ISO 13485 and IEC 62304
You’ll likely bring
- 5+ years delivering embedded firmware through the full product lifecycle, with a track record of robust releases and clean documentation
- Strong experience with FreeRTOS on ARM Cortex‑M in safety‑critical settings
- Real depth in low‑power, battery‑operated devices that communicate with mobile over BLE
- 3+ years in a regulated industry — medical device and IEC 62304 ideally
- The credibility to direct an external development partner today, and the appetite to build and lead an in‑house capability tomorrow
- Fluency in C/C++, embedded architecture, modular design, and disciplined Git‑based workflows
- A security mindset for embedded firmware (a genuine plus)
Why it matters
This is firmware that ends up on someone’s body, helping them through their day — so reliable, safe, and quietly life‑improving really matters.
You’ll own how it’s built, from working with our external partner today to standing up the in‑house capability tomorrow, and watch the impact land with real people.
Location
Hybrid role based in Basingstoke, with regular on‑site collaboration expected.
