We value diversity of ideas and want you to feel included and able to bring your best self to your workplace. Day to day activities will include: Collecting data about how workloads run and analyzing it to understand the bottlenecks and what investigate next. Analysing and improving large codebases for different performance aspects. Working with different platforms that include the latest hardware, but also FPGAs and software models of upcoming hardware designs. Documenting the analysis performed, sharing knowledge within the team and wider. Producing write-ups and presentations to help other developers handle similar problems. Contributing improvements to open-source projects or directly to our partners. Education & Qualifications: Established experience or a Bachelor's (or above) degree or equivalent experience in a STEM subject. Essential Skills: You will have excellent C/C++ skills You have experience in profiling and tracing large applications to find bottlenecks of performance You are more than aware of the details of System Architecture (pipelines, caches, MMUs, interconnect, timers, multithreading) Problem solving and debugging skills are areas in which you have proficiency Desirable Skills We value understanding of runtimes engines for high level languages like Java, Java Script and similar. We find understanding of compiler optimizations very useful We are seeking understanding of OS concepts such as processes, threads, locks, virtual memory and how they relate to application performance Ability to reason about generated assembly code is highly desired We value familiarity with open-source project development cycles and contribution processes We are seeking an understanding of Arm architecture and tools In Return: Our UK offices are amazing places to collaborate. We also have some scope to adapt the job role and title for the right person - if you are interested but unsure whether you tick all the boxes, we still would love you to reach out!

A challenging position, testing your skills in complex PCB design and ingenuity. With your experience of simulating and implementing signal algorithms in VHDL for a range of FPGAs, such as Xilinx and Altera, along with your talent for finding useful and effective solutions to demanding high-speed processing issues, this is an opportunity to grow your career with a trusted team of specialists. Focussing on projects involving digital signal processing relating to radio communication systems and cyber security, as well as high-speed data processing, much of the work is related to UK defence research programmes. You would be working alongside driven engineers and scientists and would have the opportunity to take team leadership responsibilities. Excellent communication skills will also be expected as you will represent the company to their clients, updating stakeholders and ensuring their engagement throughout the progress. Projects can cover a range of topics. Necessary skills and experience will include: Complex PCB design (OrCAD) using FPGAs, SoCs, high speed network interfaces and analogue/RF signal filtering; Simulating and implementing signal, image, or data processing algorithms in VHDL for FPGAs; Designing tests for PCBs, including firmware and software, as well as developing Linux device drivers for hardware; Software development experience in embedded C and C++ An impressive academic history including a first class degree backed by A / A at A-Level will also be required. Please note: as many of the projects are related to national security, only UK citizens able to achieve a high level of security clearance will be considered. Encouraging collaboration and speedy progress is important to our client, as are security precautions, so the team finds working onsite at their offices and labs the best solution for them, however some flexibility is available around their core hours of work (10am - 4pm). A generous remuneration package is available to successful candidates and early responsibility and career development is anticipated.
