Role 1# - Senior Embedded Linux Developer

REF – 15343

£30,000 - £40,000

Eden Scott’s innovative client, the undisputed leader for high-end 
networked audio products, is looking to recruit an Embedded Linux 
Developer with a passion for development and problem solving to work on 
a brand new, ground breaking project to create an integrated home 
automation system.

You will be responsible for architecting the target hardware and low 
level OS and software, both for proof of concept and mass manufacture 
stages of a series of projects as part of the home automation group - 
all work will be on Linux.

*Skills and experience required:*

· Solid commercial experience as a software professional working in a 
development role

· Strong C programming skills. Experience of C++ and/or C# is desirable

· Experience writing device drivers e.g. Bluetooth, ZigBee, or USB

· Ideally experience of programming microcontrollers

· Ideally experience bringing up embedded Linux boards and development 
environments

· Ideally experience customising Linux distributions and Linux package 
management

· Ideally experience on Intel and non-Intel processors e.g. ARM

*The Vision*

With a mix of conflicting standards and proprietary protocols, the 
current smart home is a disjointed amalgamation of products trying but 
failing to work together. This needn’t be so. My client, the undisputed 
leader for high-end networked audio products, is working to extend the 
developed open protocol to deliver a common framework and solution that 
allows the integrated control of all types of home appliance.

If you feel you have the required skills and would like to be considered 
for this excellent opportunity to work on a greenfield project alongside 
talented developers – please send your CV ASAP to 
pearse.kelly at edenscott.com or call me on 0141 410 1018.

Role 2# - Embedded Development Engineer

REF – 15343

£25,000 - £35,000

Eden Scott’s innovative client, the undisputed leader for high-end 
networked audio products, is looking to recruit an Embedded Development 
Engineer with a passion for Linux, open source development and problem 
solving to work on a brand new, ground breaking project to create an 
integrated home automation system.

This role may suit a more junior level candidate with a degree in 
Electronic & Software Engineering who is comfortable with programming 
microcontrollers.

You will initially be responsible for writing Linux device drivers or 
porting existing drivers to ARM and for programming microcontrollers on 
the devices these drivers communicate with. There is scope to grow the 
role to include more detailed Linux kernel development plus some 
hardware development or higher level software development in C++/C#.

*Skills and experience required:*

· An interest in Linux and Open Source development

· Ideally strong C programming skills. Experience with C++ and/or C# is 
desirable

· Ideally have experience writing device drivers e.g. Bluetooth, ZigBee 
or USB

· Ideally have experience programming microcontrollers

· Ideally have experience with networking protocols e.g. HTTP, TCP/IP
