O projekcie

About the role

We are looking for an Embedded Software Engineer with approximately 2–3 years of commercial experience to join a small Polish-British team developing an in-vitro diagnostic device.

Your primary responsibility will be developing and testing embedded software in C. You will work independently, with technical and scientific guidance from a doctoral researcher involved in the development of the device.

This is primarily a software-development position. However, writing tests, analysing results and creating technical documentation are regular parts of the role.

The product is being developed in a regulated environment. Our development processes are being progressively aligned with IVD requirements, so the way we work, test and document software continues to evolve. You should be comfortable working in an environment in which processes are becoming more structured while the product is still under active development.

Tools and working environment

Our primary development environment is Visual Studio Code. We use Git for version control and CI/CD pipelines to support development and testing.

Claude is available as a tool supporting programming, analysis and documentation. Any AI-assisted output must be understood, reviewed and tested by the engineer responsible for the change.

The team includes both Polish and British members, so English is used in everyday communication and is a mandatory requirement for this position.

How we work

You will receive a defined objective and its technical context while retaining meaningful influence over implementation, test design and proposed technical solutions.

The role requires independence, but you will not be left without technical support. Important decisions are discussed with the team and the person responsible for the scientific and technical direction of the device.

The team works mainly on-site because development frequently requires access to the physical device and laboratory equipment. Partial remote work is possible, depending on the current tasks and prior agreement with the team.

Recruitment process

The recruitment interview will be conducted entirely in English and will include a discussion of your previous embedded projects, C programming experience, testing approach and practical problem-solving skills.

Please note

This is not a coding-only position. Writing tests, analysing results and creating technical documentation are integral parts of everyday work.

If you have solid embedded C foundations, can work independently with both software and hardware, and would like to contribute to a product being developed for a regulated IVD environment, we would like to hear from you.
