Embedded Linux Engineer

Permanent | Industry-aligned salary + Bonus, Pension, Health Insurance, Share Options

IT Search is partnered with a global semiconductor company known for cutting-edge mixed-signal and embedded solutions across aerospace, industrial, and high-reliability systems.

We're now hiring an Embedded Linux Engineer to join the FPGA division - focused on developing open-source embedded software for custom RISC-V-based SoCs. You'll take full ownership of new feature development from concept to deployment, working directly alongside chief architects.

What You'll Be Doing:

  • Embedded Linux development for FPGA-based systems (Xilinx Zynq)
  • Linux kernel and driver development, hypervisor integration, and power management
  • Contributing to open-source tooling and maintaining system reliability at low level
  • Working across full project lifecycle - from whiteboard to customer delivery
  • Close collaboration with architecture, hardware and silicon design teams

What We're Looking For:

  • 5+ years of embedded software development experience
  • Strong background in Linux internals, kernel development, and low-level debugging
  • Experience working with RISC-V or ARM-based SoCs
  • Knowledge of FPGA platforms (ideally Xilinx Zynq) and hardware/software integration
  • Familiarity with hypervisors, power optimisation, and open-source development environments
  • Someone eager to take ownership, solve challenging problems, and grow with the team

This is a technically challenging role with real scope to deepen your expertise and influence key design decisions. The team operates on a hybrid basis (2–3 days onsite), with a solid benefits package including bonus, pension, health insurance, and employee share options.

If you'd like to learn more, feel free to apply or reach out to Graeme King at IT Search for a confidential conversation.
