Senior Connectivity Firmware/Test Engineer 1 year freelance contract + extensions after Leuven, Belgium (2 days remote per week) Within our Personal Health R&D group, we want to capture the strong market growth in ICs for hearing aids and implants, hearables, wearables, and personal health monitoring applications, health IoT. Owing to our success, our department of 40+ engineers is growing, and we have challenging opportunities for software engineers. Our System-on-Chip products employ the latest Bluetooth Smart (BLE) or NFC with our experience in ultra-low power design. We develop the full software stack from driver-level all to way to turnkey applications, enabling our customers to build their products with minimum effort. Description of services: Unconditionally technically responsible for a subsystem, application Estimate the effort for your work and contribute to reviewing the estimates of peers Execute feasibility studies to underpin the estimations Create a design for the software Organize or contribute to (mutual) reviews of designs with colleagues and Software Architect Plan your assignments and report on progress Contribute to specifying and developing automated regression test frameworks. Document functional and performance specifications, test design documentation and develop the test strategy and test specifications. Work with the development team to develop and guide the implementation of module, systems and end to end tests (functional + performance testing) to fit in the test framework. Develop test automations using Python, Jenkins. Experience: Master's degree in Software Engineering or Electronics or, have reached this level through another form of training or experience. 3-5 years Embedded software/firmware development experience, in either the mobile industry or in semiconductors. Proud software craftsman with solid BLE 5.X experience, preferably in both Link Layer and Host stack Natural team player and obsessive to learn and gain experience Spoken and written English Knowledge of design methods and software engineering processes, Microcontroller architectures and peripherals, Embedded programming in C. Strong Python programming skills Building Real Time systems on bare metal or using an RTOS, structured debugging, interpretation of PCB schematics. Practical experience using the Scrum framework Experience in technical coaching of junior team members Additional context of the role: Idea is to find a candidate with a strong BLE knowledge. The work to be done is to develop the upper level (application level) of the BLE communication protocol stack which are not yet existing. To do this, knowledge/understanding/experience of the lower levels is absolutely necessary ( Link Layer and Host stack). The testing part of the job will be relatively limited to the beginning of the assignment. At that time 50% of the time should be spend within the R&D team which is currently struggling with the validation testing. Helping on this aspect will serve as an introduction to the product for the candidate. Finally, we want a senior profile as one of the tasks will be to lead the team in the "go to market strategy". The product till now is developed for use cases of specific customers but idea is to make it a mass product. The senior engineer should help here to identify what may be missing in the product to reach a broader audience, for example by comparison with competitors. This part will require again to interact with the R&D team.

A well-known energy provider in Glasgow is looking for a Lead Product Designer to join their team. The company are one of the leaders in the drive towards completely Green Energy and you'll have the opportunity to work in a team that has a pivotal role in that. Over the last couple years, they've re-structured their teams to give everyone a lot more autonomy and opportunity to progress and are now bulking out the squads as part of this. In terms of projects, the majority of the stuff you'll be working on is greenfield, which should be super appealing to most! The Product Design team in particular are one of the key drivers in the push to NetZero, so the role would very much suit someone that was passionate about this.

The Product Design team cover all of the design process including ideation, research, analysis, design and delivery - they are looking for someone that is comfortable with all of this. They're looking for this person to be a mix of hands-on and hands-off, so experience of working in a mixed role is essential. You don't have to have experience of being a "Lead" as such but certainly will need to at least have some experience of hands-off type work such as mentoring, delegating work, championing design thinking across a business, leading on design best practices, contributing to overall design strategy and much more. You will have 2-3 line reports, so having at least some management experience would be the minimum here. Due to the seniority of the role, they're ideally looking for someone that has experience across both web and mobile, as well as someone that has exposure to system/service design - someone with experience of working within FinTech or FinTech adjacent industries could stand out here. These things aren't absolutely essential but would be a massive bonus. The squads work cross-functionally, so you'll work closely with Developers, Product Owners, Testers, Engineering Managers and more. They are based in Glasgow City Centre and are looking for someone to be in the office 1-2 days per week. Salary on offer is up to £70,000 and have an amazing benefits package on top of this which includes a strong pension, 10% performance related bonus and much more.
