Overview We are looking for an experienced Senior Embedded Software Engineer to design, develop, and enhance embedded software for advanced electro‑mechanical products used in global industrial applications. This role is hands-on and technical, contributing to firmware development across the full product lifecycle while collaborating closely with hardware, electronics, and systems teams. This is an ideal position for an engineer who enjoys solving real‑time, hardware‑integrated problems and delivering high-quality embedded code in a structured engineering environment. Key Responsibilities Embedded Software Development Design and develop embedded firmware in C/C++ for ARM-based microcontrollers (e.g., STM32). Work with real‑time environments - RTOS or bare-metal. Implement drivers, peripherals, communication buses, sensor interfaces, motor control, timers, and control loops. Write reliable, maintainable, well‑structured embedded code. Hardware Interaction Collaborate with electrical and systems engineering teams to define requirements and interface specifications. Use oscilloscopes, logic analysers, debuggers (e.g., JTAG/SWD) to diagnose and resolve issues. Support integration, bring-up, and testing of new hardware and prototypes. Software Quality & Processes Contribute to code reviews, unit testing, and documentation. Use version control systems (Git) and structured SDLC processes. Follow embedded software best practices (MISRA or similar desirable). Team Collaboration Mentor less experienced engineers where appropriate. Work closely with cross-functional teams to deliver features, diagnose field issues, and improve existing firmware.

Hull, HU10 + 2 days home working Up to 80,000 + Benefits Your new role I am currently recruiting for a Lead Data Engineer to build and strengthen the foundations of the data platform, delivering reliable pipelines, governed, high-quality data products that teams across Sales, Network, Customer Experience, Finance and Operations can trust. Responsibilities Build, optimise and operate ELT/ETL pipelines into our data platform using SQL and Python (PySpark), with a focus on reliability, performance and maintainability. Develop and maintain core data models (curated layers, dimensional models, shared definitions) that enable consistent KPI reporting and analysis. Implement and embed data quality controls (freshness, completeness, accuracy, reconciliation checks) and monitoring so issues are detected early and fixed at source where possible. Partner with analysts and stakeholders to turn business questions into reusable, well-governed data products rather than one-off reporting. Improve engineering standards: Git workflows, code review, documentation, repeatable deployments, and sensible environment separation. Support governance by helping define data contracts, ownership, lineage and "what does this metric mean?" clarity, so teams can use and challenge the numbers confidently. Contribute to the wider platform roadmap while keeping delivery outcomes front and centre. Lead by example on engineering quality: set the bar for production-grade delivery (testing, monitoring, documentation, code review, release discipline) and help the team consistently meet it. Coach and uplift others: mentor junior engineers/analysts, run pairing sessions, provide practical feedback, and help raise SQL/Python capability across the function. Experience needed Strong hands-on experience as a data engineer in complex, high-growth or technology-led organisations. A track record of taking data pipelines and models from "fragile and fragmented" to "trusted, governed and embedded" through practical engineering improvements. Solid experience across the data engineering lifecycle: ingestion, transformation/modelling, and enabling consumption through BI/semantic conventions. Hands-on capability with modern cloud data platforms and tooling, and a clear view of what "good" looks like for testing, monitoring, environments and deployment. Proven approach to data quality: not just fixing reports, but improving definitions, controls and root causes in upstream systems and processes. Strong communication skills: able to explain trade-offs, risks, and delivery choices clearly to non-technical stakeholders, and comfortable being challenged. A high-standards, low-ego working style: collaborative, pragmatic, and focused on outcomes that stick (not dashboards that nobody uses). Must have developed a Data Platform from inception to completion. Managed and developed data engineers, forming a high-performing team.
