Ernest Gordon Recruitment · Ireland · £50,000 – £55,000 pa

Hands-on field role configuring, commissioning and troubleshooting sensors, instrumentation and industrial IoT gateways and edge devices on customer sites. Works closely with software developers to ensure field data is transmitted, processed and displayed correctly, covering the full lifecycle from evaluating new sensors to diagnosing connectivity and communication faults.

KO2 Embedded Recruitment Solutions · Elsecar · £60,000 – £70,000 pa

Senior role in a small R&D team at an IoT product design house, working mostly on the embedded Linux side writing application and middleware code in modern C++. You'll refactor a mature, memory-constrained codebase into clean object-oriented C++ using UML-led design, covering the full lifecycle from requirements to integration and validation. The team is adopting TDD, automated testing and CI/CD, and you'll mentor engineers as the team grows.

EVera Recruitment · Bristol

Own the architecture of an embedded platform spanning electronics, firmware and power management for a climate-tech startup's microbial energy technology. Design ultra-low-power hardware and C/C++ firmware for microcontrollers, integrate LoRaWAN, NB-IoT or BLE sensors, and take products from prototype to manufacturable production with lab and field validation.

Cortech Talent Solutions · Glasgow · £40,000 – £65,000 pa

Design, build and debug embedded software and firmware for aquaculture monitoring and control systems, including sensor integration, water quality and biomass devices in demanding marine environments. Work across the full lifecycle with hardware engineers, data scientists and aquaculture specialists, using Python and/or C/C++ on microcontrollers, RTOS and protocols like MQTT, LoRaWAN and I2C. Reports to the Head of Software, with 2-3 days a week onsite.

Zenovo · Leicestershire

Architect and design software for complex embedded products made up of interconnected hardware modules, defining interfaces and integration strategies across the system. The role blends strategic architecture work with hands-on C/C++ development, Linux, IoT product work, and structured test planning alongside hardware and software engineers.

Zachary Daniels · Edinburgh

Design, develop and debug compact, low-power wearable medical devices from concept to production, covering system architecture, component selection, schematic and multi-layer PCB design, prototyping and validation. Work spans analog, mixed-signal, RF and embedded circuits, precision optical sensor signal conditioning, and ultra-low-power battery and wireless connectivity (BLE, LTE-M, GNSS) integration, with a route to leading a hardware team.

Technical Futures Ltd · Cambridge

Design, build and test embedded systems across robotics, sensing, communications and IoT, working on Linux-based systems, bare-metal, RTOS, device drivers, algorithms and protocols.
