Are you ready to take the lead on cutting-edge Embedded software projects that make a real impact?

An innovative and fast-growing engineering team based in Cardiff is on the lookout for a passionate Embedded Software Manager to shape the future of intelligent, safety-critical products. You'll head up a team developing Embedded systems used in high-reliability environments-where precision, compliance, and performance are non-negotiable.

If you're a hands-on leader who thrives in regulated industries and loves bringing structure to complexity, this is your chance to make your mark.

What You'll Be Doing

Lead from the front - Manage, mentor, and grow a talented Embedded software team.

Own the codebase - Drive full life cycle development of Embedded software (C/C++, RTOS, bare-metal systems).

Set the standards - Ensure compliance with industry regulations (IEC 62304, ISO 13485, etc.).

Collaborate globally - Work alongside electronics, systems, quality, and R&D teams to deliver world-class products.

Innovate and evolve - Promote best practices, continuous improvement, and cutting-edge development tools.

What We're Looking For

Proven experience leading Embedded software teams in regulated, safety-critical environments.

Strong background in Embedded systems design and development (C/C++, RTOS, integration with hardware).

Exposure to sectors such as medical devices, automotive, transport, healthcare, or professional services.

Excellent leadership, problem-solving, and communication skills.

A passion for building tech that improves lives.

Degree in Software, Electronics, or a related field.

Full right to work in the UK without the need for sponsorship is required due to the regulated nature of the role.

This is more than just another management role. It's your opportunity to drive innovation, lead a high-impact team, and work on technology that truly makes a difference.
