Senior Embedded Software Engineer
MedTech Start-up
Dublin (Hybrid)
Salary up to €100K plus 10% bonus and excellent benefits
IT Search has partnered with a rapidly scaling international medical devices company that is establishing a new engineering function in Dublin. They are hiring two Senior Embedded Software Engineers to take ownership of low-level embedded development for a regulated, safety critical device.
This is a hands-on role with a strong focus on Nordic BLE SoCs and Zephyr RTOS. You will work close to the hardware, dealing with peripherals, power management, and real-time control, while helping shape the firmware architecture and engineering standards from an early stage.
The Opportunity
You will design and develop embedded software for a connected medical device, working closely with electronics, systems and quality teams. The role requires strong low-level expertise and comfort working directly with microcontrollers, drivers, and hardware interfaces.
Key Responsibilities & Experience
- Develop embedded C firmware on Nordic BLE microcontrollers using Zephyr RTOS
- Work close to the hardware, including drivers, interrupts, and power management
- Implement and optimise BLE communication and custom GATT services
- Contribute to firmware architecture, testing, and regulatory verification activities
- Strong embedded C background with hands-on Nordic and Zephyr experience
- Experience in safety critical or regulated environments with solid debugging capability
These are key early hires into a newly forming engineering team, with real ownership over low-level firmware on a safety critical, patient-facing device. You’ll be working close to the hardware, influencing architecture from the start, and joining a company with strong backing, competitive compensation, and long-term growth potential.
