Embedded Software Engineer

abra R&D is seeking an Embedded C/C++ Engineer to join the core embedded development team. Join the development of an advanced embedded system used in satellite communication environments, working closely with real hardware, Linux internals, and production‑grade OTA/OTI mechanisms. The role focuses on User‑Space development in C++ on Embedded Linux, with tight interaction with drivers, kernel behavior and system‑level components. Responsibilities : Develop C++ User‑Space applications running on Embedded Linux. Apply strong OOP/OOD, modern C++ practices, and smart pointer management to build clean, scalable, maintainable code. Perform system integration with Drivers, Kernel components, hardware modules, and other system services. Read, understand, and occasionally extend Driver‑level C code to integrate user‑space logic with low‑level operations. Work within a true Embedded Linux production environment, including participation in OTA/OTI update flows and fail‑safe mechanisms. Handle system‑level communication and protocols (Basic Networking/IPC). Collaborate closely with engineering teams, including a remote team in the UK—professional English is required.

Requirements: Strong C++ (User‑Space) – OOP/OOD, smart pointers, high‑quality code practices. Hands‑on Linux experience – User‑Space development is a must. Proven experience with Embedded Linux systems (not desktop Linux only). Ability to read and work with C code around drivers / low‑level integration points. OTA/OTI production experience – remote software update flows, rollback logic, and resilience in embedded environments. Basic knowledge of Networking/communication protocols . Very good English for daily collaboration with UK teams. Nice to Have Experience with board‑level interfaces (SPI/I2C/UART/GPIO). Background in hardware/software integration. Experience with distributed embedded systems.
