Senior Embedded Firmware Engineer

Senior Embedded Firmware Engineer

Basingstoke – Hybrid working

Neupulse is at a turning point.

 
Our wearable neurostimulation device is launching
commercially.

At the heart of that device is firmware. We're looking for a
Senior Embedded Firmware Engineer to own it.

 
The role

Today, our device development is largely handled by an
external partner. You'll be our internal technical authority for it — working
hand in hand with that partner to keep firmware reliable and compliant now,
while building the pathway to bring that capability in -house over time.

It's hands -on, safety -critical work on a device people wear
every day: C/C++ on STM32, FreeRTOS on ARM Cortex -M, low -power and
battery -operated, talking to iOS and Android over BLE.

You'll:

• Own
  the firmware relationship with our external development partner —
  direction, reviews, quality, and the verification and release evidence
  that stands up to regulatory scrutiny
  
• Build
  the pathway to bring firmware capability in -house — deciding what to
  internalise and when, and growing the team to do it
  
• Stay
  hands -on and set the standard: production -quality firmware, reusable
  frameworks, coding practices and reviews across current and future
  products
  
• Own
  security — threat assessment, vulnerability management, and secure device
  updates
  
• Work
  shoulder to shoulder with hardware, software, quality and regulatory,
  keeping everything traceable and compliant with ISO 13485 and IEC 62304
  

You'll likely bring

• 5+
  years delivering embedded firmware through the full product lifecycle,
  with a track record of robust releases and clean documentation
  
• Strong
  experience with FreeRTOS on ARM Cortex -M in safety -critical settings
  
• Real
  depth in low -power, battery -operated devices that communicate with mobile
  over BLE
  
• 3+
  years in a regulated industry — medical device and IEC 62304 ideally
  
• The
  credibility to direct an external development partner today, and the
  appetite to build and lead an in -house capability tomorrow
  
• Fluency
  in C/C++, embedded architecture, modular design, and disciplined Git -based
  workflows
  
• A
  security mindset for embedded firmware (a genuine plus)
   
  

Why it matters

This is firmware that ends up on someone's body, helping
them through their day — so reliable, safe, and quietly life -improving really
matters.

You'll own how it's built, from working with our external
partner today to standing up the in -house capability tomorrow, and watch the
impact land with real people.

Hybrid role based in Basingstoke, with regular on -site collaboration expected.
