Benefits

Competitive salary Equity

Ready to work at the intersection of embedded systems, audio processing, and AI in a true 01 product environment?

We’re an early-stage, well-funded technology company building a next-generation intelligent hardware product, combining edge devices with cloud-based AI. Backed by experienced founders with a strong track record of building and scaling successful companies, this is a rare opportunity to shape a product from the ground up.

Audio is a critical part of the product roadmap — with significant potential to unlock deeper data intelligence than traditional video-based systems — and we’re looking for an engineer to take ownership of this space end-to-end.

Why Join

  • Work on a greenfield product at an early stage
  • Own a core product pillar (audio + AI) from day one
  • Collaborate across embedded, cloud, and ML teams
  • High autonomy in a low-ego, high-performance environment
  • Competitive salary + equity
  • Strong long-term growth and learning opportunities

The Role

You’ll take full ownership of the audio subsystem, spanning real-time embedded processing through to cloud-based audio pipelines and ML integration.

This role sits between embedded engineering and backend/AI — ideal for someone who enjoys both low-level systems and higher-level software.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and build end-to-end audio pipelines (edge cloud)
  • Implement and optimise DSP components (e.g. filtering, noise suppression, VAD)
  • Develop audio processing systems under real-time and resource constraints
  • Build tools for analysis, testing, and performance evaluation
  • Collaborate with ML engineers to enable audio-driven intelligence
  • Debug and improve system performance across the full stack

About You

  • 0-3 years’ experience in software engineering, embedded systems, or audio/ML
  • Strong academic background (top university preferred, A grades at A-Level

Experience in the following would be advantageous but not essential

  • Coding skills (C/C++ and/or Python)
  • Understanding of audio processing / DSP fundamentals
  • Interest or experience in Audio ML, signal processing, or real-time systems
  • Comfortable working across hardware and software boundaries
  • Strong problem-solving ability and curiosity

Nice to Have

  • Experience with audio codecs, streaming, or real-time systems
  • Exposure to PyTorch / TensorFlow or ML pipelines
  • Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS or similar)
  • Hardware exposure (e.g. embedded systems, sensors, or low-level interfaces)

What We Offer

  • Competitive salary (flexible based on experience) + equity
  • Visa sponsorship available (international candidates welcome)
  • In-person, highly collaborative working environment
  • Opportunity to shape a core product capability in a scaling startup

Apply Now

If you’re excited by building real-world systems at the intersection of audio, embedded engineering, and AI, we’d love to hear from you.

Where to Advertise Edge Computing Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Where to advertise edge computing jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards and channels that reach embedded, IoT, 5G MEC and edge AI engineering talent. Edge computing sits at the intersection of embedded systems, networking, cloud infrastructure and real-time data processing — and the professionals who specialise in it are a small, highly technical community not well served by general job boards. Candidates with genuine edge and IoT expertise are rarely browsing general platforms, and roles in this space are frequently misunderstood or miscategorised by non-specialist recruiters. This guide, published by EdgeComputingJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise edge computing roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Edge Computing Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Edge Computing Jobs UK 2026: roles, salaries and the IoT, 5G and edge AI hiring trends shaping UK edge computing careers over the next three years. Edge computing is quietly becoming one of the most consequential technology shifts of the decade — and the jobs market is starting to reflect that. As the limitations of centralised cloud infrastructure become apparent across industries that require real-time processing, ultra-low latency, and data sovereignty, the demand for professionals who can design, build, and manage computing at the edge has moved from niche to mainstream. But the edge computing jobs market of 2026 is not yet the mature, well-defined landscape that cloud computing has become. It is still forming. New architectures are emerging, standards are being established, and the range of industries deploying edge infrastructure is expanding rapidly — from manufacturing and telecommunications to healthcare, retail, autonomous vehicles, and smart cities. That creates a particular kind of opportunity for job seekers: the chance to build deep expertise in a discipline that is growing faster than the talent pipeline serving it. The candidates who will thrive over the next three years are those who understand where edge computing is heading — which use cases are driving commercial deployment, which technologies are defining the architecture of distributed systems, and how the skills required to work at the edge differ meaningfully from those that served professionals well in centralised cloud environments. This article breaks down what the UK edge computing jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the curve.
