About the Company

KO2's client is a rapidly expanding technology company based in Stroud, developing cutting-edge intelligent systems that sit at the intersection of embedded engineering and artificial intelligence. With strong investment and an exciting product roadmap, they are looking to bring on an Edge AI Engineer to help shape the next generation of smart, connected devices.

The Role

As an Edge AI Engineer, you will design and deploy AI models directly onto embedded hardware, working closely with multidisciplinary teams across hardware, firmware, and data science. This is a hands-on role where you will take solutions from concept through to real-world deployment. You will be required to achieve SC clearance in this role, if you have it already that is ideal.

Key Responsibilities

Develop and optimise AI/ML models for edge devices

Integrate sensor data into Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs)

Design and implement Digital Signal Processing (DSP) pipelines

Develop and maintain microcontroller software (C/C++ or similar)

Work on mesh networking solutions for distributed device communication

Collaborate with hardware engineers to ensure seamless system integration

Optimise performance for low-power, resource-constrained environmentsRequired Skills & Experience

Strong experience in Edge AI / Embedded Machine Learning

Proven knowledge of integrating sensor data with CNNs

Solid understanding of Digital Signal Processing (DSP) techniques

Knowledge or experience with mesh networking protocols

Proficiency in C/C++ and/or Python

Familiarity with embedded Linux is a plus

Ability to hold SC clearance. Desirable Skills

Experience with TinyML or similar frameworks

Knowledge of wireless communication protocols (BLE, Zigbee, LoRa, etc.)

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

Advertising edge computing jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. 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 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.

New Edge Computing Employers to Watch in 2026: UK and Global Companies Shaping Edge Innovation

Edge computing is transforming how data is processed by bringing compute power closer to the source of generation. With the proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT), real‑time analytics, autonomous systems, and latency‑sensitive applications, edge computing has moved from a niche discipline to a core component of digital infrastructure. In 2026, organisations that specialise in or heavily invest in edge computing are expanding their teams to build distributed systems, real‑time analytics platforms, and edge‑optimised AI. For professionals exploring opportunities on www.EdgeComputingJobs.co.uk , understanding which employers are growing, winning contracts, or securing investment is essential. This article highlights the new and high‑growth edge computing employers to watch in 2026, including UK startups, international innovators with a UK presence, and established companies shifting strategy toward edge.
