  • MondayFriday days no shifts, no weekends
  • A genuine opportunity to step up and make an impact

Electronics & Embedded Software Engineer

Location: Macclesfield (Onsite - 4 days/week)

Salary: £60,000 - £65,000 + benefits

We are seeking a well-rounded Electronics & Embedded Software Engineer to join a growing engineering team in Macclesfield. This is a hands-on role offering full lifecycle ownership-from concept and hardware design through to firmware development and signal processing.

The Role

This position is approximately a 50/50 split between electronics design and embedded software/firmware development, depending on project phase. You will be responsible for:

Designing complex, multi-layer PCBs

Developing embedded firmware for data acquisition and processing

Working across the full product lifecycle-from blank sheet design to finished implementation

Handling high-speed, multi-channel data acquisition systems

Implementing efficient, real-time signal processing solutions

Essential Skills & Experience

A strong foundation in both electronics and embedded systems is required, but Digital Signal Processing (DSP) experience is essential. Specifically, you should have:

Practical experience implementing DSP techniques in embedded systems (hardware and/or firmware)

Understanding of filtering concepts, including IIR and FIR filters

Knowledge of decimation chains and signal conditioning

Experience working with high data rates (e.g. tens of kS/s across multiple channels)

Ability to optimise processing to avoid CPU bottlenecks

In addition, you should be comfortable:

Taking ownership of complete engineering solutions independently

Working in a small team environment rather than a highly segmented large organisation

Making sound engineering judgements across both hardware and software domains

Working Environment

Onsite collaboration is key - this role requires 4 days per week in the office (Monday-Thursday)

Fridays are a relaxed half-day (8:00-12:30), with flexibility to work from home or in the office

About You

You’ll be a proactive, self-sufficient engineer who enjoys owning projects end-to-end. This role suits someone who thrives in a collaborative, onsite environment and wants to make a meaningful technical impact over the long term.
