Job Description:

Embedded Firmware Engineer (STM32) – Contract – South Wales (Onsite)

I’m working with a medical device company in South Wales developing new hardware products, and they’re looking for an embedded firmware engineer to support development on two newly designed boards.

This is a hands-on role, working close to hardware — not a pure software position.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Developing firmware on STM32 microcontrollers
  • Working on two new boards:
  • One focused on analog signal acquisition (ADC → UART data flow)
  • One focused on control systems, managing I/O and SPI communication with peripheral boards
  • Collaborating with hardware engineers and working from existing schematics/PCB designs
  • Taking ownership of getting the boards fully functional and integrated

✅ What they’re looking for:

  • Strong experience with embedded C / firmware development
  • Hands-on experience with STM32
  • Experience working with communication protocols such as SPI and UART
  • Comfortable working close to hardware (schematics, PCB understanding)
  • Able to work onsite in South Wales 3 days per week

➕ Nice to have:

  • Experience working with FPGAs
  • Exposure to ADC / signal acquisition systems
  • Any experience in medical devices or regulated environments

Details:

  • Initial 3-month contract (likely extension)
  • Onsite requirement: 3 days per week (South Wales)
  • Working alongside an existing firmware team (with internal STM32 knowledge)

If this sounds like something you’d be interested in, or you’d like more details, feel free to drop me a message.
