Full Job Description

📋 Description

• Design, implement, and maintain high-performance embedded and real-time software components in C++ (C++17 or later), including hardware abstraction layers, device drivers, and data acquisition pipelines for a regulated medical device.
• Define and drive the long-term technical strategy for embedded architecture, proactively identifying and mitigating cross-team dependencies and technical debt in a safety-critical environment.
• Act as a technical bridge between engineering teams and non-technical stakeholders (Product, Clinical, Regulatory) to ensure alignment on project goals and regulatory requirements.
• Mentor and grow software engineers by fostering a culture of technical excellence, code quality, and professional development within the broader software team.
• Ensure software quality through rigorous code reviews, unit and integration testing, and strict adherence to CoMind’s software development lifecycle compliant with IEC 62304.
• Collaborate with electronics and FPGA teams on hardware-software interfaces, supporting hardware bring-up, system integration, and complex debugging of real-time systems.
• Contribute to risk management and design documentation activities, including software hazard analysis and traceability in compliance with ISO 14971 and CoMind’s Quality Management System (QMS).
• Participate in design reviews, sprint planning, and cross-functional technical forums to uphold a high-performance engineering culture.
• Embrace AI as a core part of daily work, continuously identifying and implementing new ways to leverage AI for collaboration, innovation, and efficiency in software development.
• Work within a regulated medical device environment where software must perform reliably in clinical settings, adhering to stringent standards for safety, traceability, and validation.
• Engage in full-stack development spanning embedded systems, real-time data acquisition, ML inference, GUI, DevOps, and test engineering to deliver end-to-end medical device software.
• Maintain compliance with medical device software standards including IEC 62304 and contribute to documentation required for regulatory submissions.
• Support integration of software with optical or biomedical hardware systems, ensuring seamless data flow from sensor acquisition to clinical display.
• Apply deep expertise in embedded Linux environments, including device driver development, memory management, concurrency, and performance optimization under real-time constraints.
• Work at least four days per week from the Kings Cross office in London, with one flexible day of remote work per week.

🎯 Requirements

• 10+ years of experience in software engineering with a strong focus on systems-level software architecture
• Deep expertise in modern C++ (C++17 or later), including memory management, concurrency, real-time constraints, and performance optimisation
• Hands-on experience developing software for embedded Linux environments, including device driver development and hardware abstraction
• Experience in a regulated industry (medical devices, aerospace, automotive, or similar) including familiarity with IEC 62304 or equivalent software development standards
• Strong understanding of hardware-software integration, including FPGA or microcontroller interfaces, communication buses (SPI, I2C, UART, PCIe), and real-time operating systems
• Demonstrated ability to write clean, well-tested, and maintainable code in a safety-critical context

🏖️ Benefits

• Company equity plan so all employees share in the success of the company
• Salary-sacrifice pension scheme
• Private medical, dental and vision insurance (medical history disregarded)
• Group life assurance at 4x annual income
• Comprehensive mental health support, including unlimited access to 1:1 sessions with trained professionals
