Lead Embedded Software Engineer - 5G

The role: Lead the design and development of embedded and 5G software for satellite ground systems. Take technical ownership of software architecture, implementation, integration and troubleshooting. Guide a team of two to three engineers, providing technical direction, mentoring and code reviews. Work alongside senior technical engineers to resolve complex software and system-level challenges. Collaborate across software, radio and systems engineering to translate requirements into working solutions. Set engineering priorities and maintain high standards for software quality, reliability and performance.

What we're looking for: Significant experience developing embedded software, with expertise in 5G core and/or radio software development. The ability to work across architecture and detailed implementation, with a strong commitment to hands-on engineering. Experience providing technical leadership to engineers and taking responsibility for delivery. Strong debugging and integration skills across complex, interconnected systems. Experience in satellite communications or related wireless telecommunications environments would be valuable. This is a principal-level engineering appointment with a small-team leadership remit, suited to someone who wants to influence technical decisions and develop engineers while continuing to build software themselves.
