This team of engineers develops innovative monitoring systems used for Grid Monitoring, Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS), Generation, and other critical electrical infrastructure applications.\nAs a Senior Embedded Software Engineer, you will play a key role in the design, development, and support of software for mission-critical monitoring and diagnostic products used throughout the electrical power industry. Working closely with Systems, Hardware, Test, Firmware, and Product Management teams, you will develop software spanning embedded Linux platforms, edge applications, industrial communications, desktop software, engineering tools, and system integration layers.\nYou will contribute across the complete product lifecycle, from requirements definition and architecture through implementation, integration, verification, release, and sustaining engineering. Leveraging modern software engineering practices, including AI-assisted development, code analysis, debugging, and test automation tools where appropriate, you will help deliver robust, secure, maintainable, and scalable products that support critical electrical infrastructure around the world.\nHere’s where you’ll demonstrate your proficiencies:\nDesign, develop, maintain, and debug software for embedded Linux platforms, edge devices, desktop applications, and engineering tools.\nDevelop high-quality software solutions using C++, C#, Python, or other appropriate programming languages.\nDevelop Linux-based applications, services, data processing components, communications software, and system management functions.\nDevelop desktop applications, configuration utilities, diagnostic tools, visualisation tools, and user interfaces.\nImplement and maintain industrial communications protocols including IEC 61850, DNP3, Modbus, IEC 60870, MQTT, OPC-UA, and related technologies.\nDevelop software for data acquisition, event processing, diagnostics, analytics, reporting, communications, and product configuration.\nSupport integration across embedded devices, networking infrastructure, databases, cloud services, desktop applications, and wider product ecosystems.\nWork with Systems, Hardware, Firmware, Software, and Test Engineers to deliver integrated product solutions.\nPerform root-cause analysis, debugging, and performance optimisation across complex software systems.\nDevelop and support automated testing, regression testing, continuous integration, and software quality verification.\nSupport cybersecurity, secure communications, compliance, and secure software development initiatives.\nContribute to software architecture, design reviews, technical risk assessment, and product lifecycle decisions.\nUtilise AI-assisted development, code review, debugging, documentation, and test generation tools to improve engineering productivity and software quality.\nMentor junior engineers and contribute to the continuous improvement of engineering practices, tools, and development processes.\nWork within Agile Scrum teams to support efficient product delivery, continuous improvement, and long-term product reliability.\nQualifications\nThe successful candidate will be able to demonstrate the following skills and experience:\nBachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, or a related discipline.\nMinimum five years of industry experience developing embedded software, Linux-based applications, desktop applications, or software-based industrial products.\nStrong proficiency in C++ and modern software development practices.\nExperience developing applications, services, or system-level software on Linux-based platforms.\nExperience developing desktop software applications using C#, .NET, Qt, Java, or similar technologies.\nStrong understanding of software architecture, object-oriented design, design patterns, modular design, and software lifecycle management.\nExtensive hands-on experience developing, debugging, and optimising multithreaded software applications in Linux environments, including thread scheduling, synchronisation mechanisms, inter-process communication, resource management, and performance analysis.\nExperience with networking, distributed systems, and real-time or near-real-time software environments.\nExperience developing software for data acquisition, communications, diagnostics, configuration, or monitoring applications.\nExperience developing or supporting industrial communication protocols such as IEC 61850, DNP3, Modbus, IEC 60870, MQTT, OPC-UA, or similar.\nExperience with software debugging, system troubleshooting, performance analysis, and root-cause investigation.\nExperience using version control systems such as Git and modern software development workflows.\nExperience with automated testing, unit testing, integration testing, and software quality practices.\nStrong analytical, troubleshooting, interpersonal, and technical communication skills.\nAbility to work independently while contributing effectively within a cross-functional engineering team.\nPreferred Skills\nExperience developing products for the electrical power, utility, industrial automation, monitoring, or critical infrastructure sectors.\nExperience with embedded Linux distributions, edge computing platforms, or industrial computing environments.\nExperience with Yocto, Buildroot, Debian-based embedded systems, or similar Linux environments.\nExperience with desktop UI frameworks such as Qt, WPF, WinForms, Blazor, Electron, or web-based user interfaces.\nExperience with databases, REST APIs, message brokers, telemetry systems, or modern connectivity frameworks.\nExperience with cloud-connected products, remote monitoring systems, device management, or distributed architectures.\nExperience with Ethernet networking, managed switches, PTP, NTP, time synchronisation, or SCADA connectivity.\nExperience troubleshooting communications using packet capture and analysis tools such as Wireshark.\nExperience with Digital Fault Recording (DFR), Power Quality (PQ), PMU, GIS monitoring, transformer monitoring, partial discharge monitoring, or related power system applications.\nUnderstanding of cybersecurity principles, secure communications, authentication mechanisms, vulnerability management, and secure software development practices.\nFamiliarity with IEC 62443 or other cybersecurity standards for industrial systems would be advantageous.\nExperience with CI/CD pipelines, automated build systems, static analysis, software quality tools, and DevOps practices.\nExperience using AI-assisted software development tools and Large Language Model (LLM) technologies to improve software development, testing, documentation, and engineering efficiency.\nExperience using engineering collaboration tools such as JIRA and Confluence.\nFamiliarity with Agile Scrum development methodologies.\nExposure to firmware, embedded devices, or hardware/software integration would be advantageous, but this is not a low-level firmware or bare-metal development role.s, and leave a lasting mark on the
