We’re looking for an Embedded Software Engineer to join our clients growing engineering team. If you have solid experience developing software for real-time systems and a good understanding of hardware and wireless communications, this could be a great fit.

You’ll play a key role in designing and delivering embedded software that powers our next-generation products—working closely with hardware engineers and product teams to bring innovative solutions to life.

What You’ll Be Doing:
Designing and implementing embedded software for ARM-based platforms, ideally using Zephyr or another RTOS.
Developing and optimising wireless communication features (e.g., Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Zigbee).
Writing efficient, reliable C code for embedded systems, following best practices (MISRA knowledge is a plus).
Supporting application development on Linux-based systems for simulation and testing.
Working with cross-functional teams to define system architecture and software requirements.
Maintaining clear documentation and contributing to software quality through reviews and testing.What We’re Looking For:
Strong experience in embedded C programming with RTOS (Zephyr, FreeRTOS, or similar).
A good understanding of hardware and how software interacts with it.
Exposure to web-based tech like JavaScript and HTML is useful, especially for UI or monitoring interfaces.
Familiarity with version control tools (e.g., Git) and embedded development environments.
An understanding of security in embedded systems (e.g., encrypted communications, secure boot).
Proactive problem-solver who can work independently and as part of a team.Qualifications:
Degree in Computer Science, Electronics, or a related field—or equivalent hands-on experience.
3+ years of professional experience in embedded systems development.
Previous work on consumer products, IoT devices, or other real-world embedded applications is an advantage.What You’ll Get:
Competitive salary and full benefits package.
Flexible hybrid working and a positive work-life balance.
A chance to work on interesting projects with real-world impact.
Supportive team culture with opportunities to grow your skills and career.

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.

How Many Edge Computing Tools Do You Need to Know to Get an Edge Computing Job?

If you’re trying to start or grow a career in edge computing, it can feel like you’re navigating a maze of tools, frameworks and platforms — Kubernetes, Docker, IoT frameworks, AWS Greengrass, Azure IoT Edge, OpenShift, TinyML toolkits, networking orchestration, real-time streaming frameworks, and on it goes. Scroll job boards and community forums and it’s easy to conclude that unless you master every buzzword imaginable, you’ll never get a job. Here’s the honest truth most edge computing hiring managers won’t necessarily say out loud: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every edge computing tool — they hire you because you can solve real system problems using the tools you know. Tools matter, yes — but only when they support clear outcomes: reliable systems, performance at scale, secure edge deployments and real business value. So how many edge computing tools do you actually need to know to secure a job? For most edge computing roles, the answer is fewer than you think — and a lot clearer when sorted by fundamentals and roles. This guide shows you what matters, what doesn’t, and how to focus your time wisely so you come across as capable, confident and employable.

What Hiring Managers Look for First in Edge Computing Job Applications (UK Guide)

In today’s fast-evolving tech landscape, edge computing is one of the most sought-after fields — blending distributed systems, embedded systems, networking, cloud, IoT, data and real-time processing. But that also means hiring managers are highly selective. They scan applications fast and look for signals of relevance, impact, technical depth and real-world delivery long before they read every line. This guide demystifies what hiring managers in edge computing look for first in your application — so you can tailor your CV, portfolio and cover letter to jump out of the stack. Whether you’re targeting edge systems roles, embedded IoT edge jobs, edge-native data roles, edge platform engineering or edge-AI positions, this checklist will help you position your experience in a way hiring managers can trust immediately.
