  * Take ownership of firmware across the product lifecycle, from development through to verification, validation, and release under design control

  * Develop and maintain systems in line with IEC 62304 and support compliance with IEC (phone number removed)

  * Support ongoing product updates, patches, and next-generation development on an established platform

  * Work closely with hardware, systems, and external partners to ensure robust integration and delivery

Experience and skills required

  * Strong experience in embedded firmware development using C/C++ on MCU-based systems

  * Proven experience working within medical devices or other regulated environments, with hands-on exposure to IEC 62304 and IEC (phone number removed)

  * Experience taking products through development into release, including work under design control

  * Strong understanding of real-time data acquisition and embedded system architecture

  * Ability to take ownership of firmware development and operate as a senior technical lead

Nice to have

  * Experience working with wireless communication protocols such as BLE, WiFi, or similar

  * Experience with sensor integration or physiological data acquisition

  * Exposure to both analogue and digital electronics design

  * Experience working in fast-paced R&D environments with evolving product requirements

  * Experience supporting or managing external engineering partners or consultancies
