Opportunity
I’m partnering with a world‑leading robotics company based in North London to find an experienced Embedded Firmware Engineer for an exciting 6‑month project. You’ll be joining a small, highly skilled engineering team working on advanced robotic systems for a major international client.
This is a hands‑on role where you’ll work with hardware daily, collaborate directly with senior engineers, and have the autonomy to drive solutions forward.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Designing and developing firmware for embedded systems within robotic platforms
- Working closely with electronics and mechanical engineers to integrate firmware with hardware
- Debugging and optimising code for motor control, sensors, and communication interfaces
- Contributing to a high‑profile project with an important international partner
- Documenting your work clearly for handover and future development
What You’ll Bring
- Strong C and C++ programming skills in embedded environments
- Experience with microcontroller architectures and hardware‑software integration
- Familiarity with communication protocols (SPI, I2C, UART, CAN)
- Python scripting ability for testing and automation
- Several years of commercial embedded/firmware experience – you’re confident working independently
- The ability to be in the London office daily to work with the hardware
Nice to have
RTOS experience, robotics background, motor control systems
What’s In It For You
- Work on genuinely innovative robotics technology
- Collaborate with a talented, international team of engineers
- Hands‑on access to cutting‑edge hardware every day
- Competitive day rate via PAYE, potential for extension
