About Us

DTC | A Codan Company is a technology company based in Whiteley, Hampshire. We specialise in the research and development of wireless and critical RF communication systems.

Our engineers work at the edge of what is scientifically possible, using cutting‑edge technology to deliver highly reliable, secure, long‑range wireless solutions. Our products are used across defence, uncrewed systems, government, and broadcast markets.

About the Role

We are looking for a Senior Embedded Engineer to play a key role in the development of advanced wireless communication systems.

This is a hands‑on role combining embedded software development and FPGA design, ideal for someone who enjoys working across both domains rather than specialising in just one.

  • Develop embedded C software for real‑time systems
  • Contribute to FPGA development (VHDL, ideally Xilinx)
  • Work across the full product lifecycle, from concept through to production
  • Contribute to new waveform and algorithm development
  • Collaborate closely with hardware, RF, and system teams

You’ll also have the opportunity to work with software‑defined radio (SDR) and cutting‑edge RF technologies.

What We’re Looking For

  • Strong experience in embedded C development
  • Experience with FPGA development (VHDL or similar)
  • Comfortable working in a Linux or embedded Linux environment
  • Strong understanding of electronics and working with test equipment (e.g. oscilloscopes)
  • Degree in Electronics, Engineering, or Physics
  • Experience with C++
  • Exposure to SDR, RF systems, or DSP
  • Background in defence, telecommunications, broadcast, or similar industries
  • Experience with Xilinx FPGAs
  • Experience in mentoring & team/project leadership

We’re looking for someone who enjoys working close to hardware and is comfortable moving between software and FPGA development.

Why Join DTC

  • Work on cutting‑edge technology at the limits of what’s possible
  • Own your work from design through to delivery
  • Be part of a highly skilled, collaborative engineering team
  • Flexible working, competitive salary, and strong benefits package
  • Ongoing training and development, including exposure to new technologies

Successful applicants will need to be eligible for Security Clearance.
