Your work will support and positively impact students, teachers and partners around the world. Working with the Embedded Software lead and wider tech team, you will develop, improve and research the embedded software that runs on the 11 million BBC micro:bit's distributed around the world. The device helps children and teachers get creative with digital technology, with a specific focus on broadening the diversity of students passionate about computing. This is a broad role in a small organisation, working predominantly on open source projects, in collaboration with other organisations like Lancaster University, Arm and Microsoft. Current projects include: The micro:bit CODAL - the abstractions on which the primary, web-based editors for the micro:bit are built ( , ) DAPLink - the micro:bit's firmware that enables the seamless experience in classrooms so the micro:bit can be programmed from the browser MicroPython for the micro:bit and pxt-microbit , from which MakeCode is built. We want to enable a diversity of people to create amazing and creative things with the micro:bit, so empowering them to do as many different things, as easily as possible, is a key goal. The successful candidate will help us push the limit of what can be done with the micro:bit hardware, with an emphasis on writing expandable, efficient software, with user friendly interfaces. Essential qualifications More than 4 years experience developing C/C++ drivers and software to run on embedded devices (ideally Arm Cortex-M). Experience debugging software in embedded systems using electronic lab tools. Familiarity with test methodologies for embedded systems, including automated and manual tests.

We have achieved this by working closely with engineering teams at our global partners, including Arm, Microsoft, MIT and Nominet. Through these partnerships, the micro:bit is at the heart of a diverse ecosystem of hardware accessories, software editors and educational resource providers. A key role of the tech team at The Foundation is to support this ecosystem in growing and diversifying in an open way. The Micro:bit Educational Foundation is committed to improving the diversity of our team. We actively seek and welcome applications from women, and from all sections of the community. Location Location - Oxford, UK (flexible) For this role, we believe there is value in face-to-face collaboration for design discussions and mentoring. This position is based at our central Oxford office, however a significant amount of flexible working is possible. We expect this role to be in the office at least 2 days per week on average.

We achieve this through a combination of global grassroots activity and large-scale deployments with partners; for example last year we deployed micro:bits into 90% of UK primary schools in a project with Nominet and the BBC. One of the greatest benefits of working at micro:bit is knowing that the work you're doing is contributing to something positive, constructive and with beneficial social outcomes. The Micro:bit Educational Foundation offers the opportunity to include outreach activities in your work, these can include working with tech community groups, teaching with the micro:bit at code clubs and so on. Once probationary period is complete, contractual benefits include; group private medical and group life insurance plan, EAP plan, flexibility in working hours, flexible annual leave policy (taking at minimum 20 days a year not including national holidays) and pension arrangement. Flexibility The Micro:bit Educational Foundation is a flexible employer and we love to support our team to work around other commitments in their lives, and we have a track-record of actually doing this.

MyEdSpace is an education technology platform that connects the best teachers on the planet with the students who need them the most - wherever they are, whatever their means. Backed by $15m in Series A funding from some of the leading EdTech investors, we're ready to scale - and we want you to lead the charge with us! We're on a mission to make a world-class education accessible to all. We believe that every child deserves access to quality education, regardless of geography or socioeconomic background, to achieve their dreams and build a brighter future. So if you're a top-performer, incredibly ambitious, and excited to redefine an industry on a societal level and make a real impact on the world - we'd love to hear from you! The Practical Bits Job Title: Senior Backend Software Engineer Experience: 7+ years commercial experience as a Software Engineer Location: Hybrid or Remote (HQ is in London) Compensation: Highly competitive + bonus upside The Role We're building the platform that powers how thousands of families experience online learning - with a focus on clarity, strong domain design, and long-term thinking. As we evolve our architecture with new Java services (while still operating parts of our PHP ecosystem), your work will shape how these systems fit together and how the product scales. You'll join a team that values engineering fundamentals, product thinking, and a culture where impact matters more than output. This is a place where senior engineers influence direction - not just execution. What We're Looking For Strong backend engineering experience, ideally in Java (or another strongly typed language with willingness to work in Java). Engineering fundamentals over frameworks - you understand principles and treat frameworks as implementation details, not identity. DDD fluency - aggregates, invariants, boundaries, contracts, and ubiquitous language are not alien concepts to you. Value-driven mindset - you challenge scope, reduce waste, and focus on solving the right problem, not just shipping features. Operational maturity - you're comfortable owning code in production, from build pipelines to monitoring and iteration. Modern engineering practices - version control, CI/CD, containerised development, and cloud environments (AWS ideal). Clear, thoughtful communication - you work well in a remote-first, async-friendly environment. T-shaped mindset - deep backend expertise with the ability to collaborate effectively across other parts of the stack. What You'll Be Doing Designing and building backend services in Java as part of our evolving architecture. Working with existing PHP systems where needed, and helping shape the path forward. Modelling domains, defining boundaries, and contributing to architectural decisions. Implementing clear, maintainable APIs and backend features that serve real user needs. Owning your work beyond delivery - build pipelines, observability, and production behaviour. Participating in code reviews, technical discussions, and shared decision-making. Improving performance, reliability, and security as the platform scales. Contributing to a culture of engineering excellence, learning, and thoughtful trade-offs. Our Hiring Process We aim to keep the process efficient, transparent, and focused on mutual fit. CV Screening Your application will be reviewed by one of our engineers to assess your technical foundation, relevant experience, and overall alignment with the role. Screening Call A short conversation to get to know each other better. You'll learn more about MyEdSpace and how we work, while we'll explore what motivates you, how you like to collaborate, and whether our ways of working align. Coding Exercise A take-home coding challenge designed to assess practical engineering skills - architecture, clean code, testing, and problem-solving. Technical Interview A deep dive into your engineering approach - exploring past projects, technical decisions, and systems thinking. This session is typically joined by two engineers (or a Tech Lead and the Hiring Manager). Culture & Collaboration Interview A closing conversation to ensure strong alignment with our values and ways of working. Our values PUT INTEGRITY FIRST Honesty matters. Tell the truth, and be straight up. Be transparent and do the right thing. This builds respect and reliability for our students, families and team members. KNOW YOUR COORDINATES Understand where you are and where you want to get to. Know your strengths and acknowledge your gaps. Think from first principles.

MyEdSpace is an education technology platform that connects the best teachers on the planet with the students who need them the most - wherever they are, whatever their means. Backed by $15m in Series A funding from some of the leading EdTech investors, we're ready to scale - and we want you to lead the charge with us! We're on a mission to make a world-class education accessible to all. We believe that every child deserves access to quality education, regardless of geography or socioeconomic background, to achieve their dreams and build a brighter future. So if you're a top-performer, incredibly ambitious, and excited to redefine an industry on a societal level and make a real impact on the world - we'd love to hear from you! The Practical Bits Job Title: Senior Backend Software Engineer Experience: 7+ years commercial experience as a Software Engineer Location: Hybrid or Remote (HQ is in London) Compensation: Highly competitive + bonus upside The Role We're building the platform that powers how thousands of families experience online learning - with a focus on clarity, strong domain design, and long-term thinking. As we evolve our architecture with new Java services (while still operating parts of our PHP ecosystem), your work will shape how these systems fit together and how the product scales. You'll join a team that values engineering fundamentals, product thinking, and a culture where impact matters more than output. This is a place where senior engineers influence direction - not just execution. What We're Looking For Strong backend engineering experience, ideally in Java (or another strongly typed language with willingness to work in Java). Engineering fundamentals over frameworks - you understand principles and treat frameworks as implementation details, not identity. DDD fluency - aggregates, invariants, boundaries, contracts, and ubiquitous language are not alien concepts to you. Value-driven mindset - you challenge scope, reduce waste, and focus on solving the right problem, not just shipping features. Operational maturity - you're comfortable owning code in production, from build pipelines to monitoring and iteration. Modern engineering practices - version control, CI/CD, containerised development, and cloud environments (AWS ideal). Clear, thoughtful communication - you work well in a remote-first, async-friendly environment. T-shaped mindset - deep backend expertise with the ability to collaborate effectively across other parts of the stack. What You'll Be Doing Designing and building backend services in Java as part of our evolving architecture. Working with existing PHP systems where needed, and helping shape the path forward. Modelling domains, defining boundaries, and contributing to architectural decisions. Implementing clear, maintainable APIs and backend features that serve real user needs. Owning your work beyond delivery - build pipelines, observability, and production behaviour. Participating in code reviews, technical discussions, and shared decision-making. Improving performance, reliability, and security as the platform scales. Contributing to a culture of engineering excellence, learning, and thoughtful trade-offs. Our Hiring Process We aim to keep the process efficient, transparent, and focused on mutual fit. CV Screening Your application will be reviewed by one of our engineers to assess your technical foundation, relevant experience, and overall alignment with the role. Screening Call A short conversation to get to know each other better. You'll learn more about MyEdSpace and how we work, while we'll explore what motivates you, how you like to collaborate, and whether our ways of working align. Coding Exercise A take-home coding challenge designed to assess practical engineering skills - architecture, clean code, testing, and problem-solving. Technical Interview A deep dive into your engineering approach - exploring past projects, technical decisions, and systems thinking. This session is typically joined by two engineers (or a Tech Lead and the Hiring Manager). Culture & Collaboration Interview A closing conversation to ensure strong alignment with our values and ways of working. Our values PUT INTEGRITY FIRST Honesty matters. Tell the truth, and be straight up. Be transparent and do the right thing. This builds respect and reliability for our students, families and team members. KNOW YOUR COORDINATES Understand where you are and where you want to get to. Know your strengths and acknowledge your gaps. Think from first principles. Question things, and never pretend to know what you don't. RAISE THE BAR Own it and get it done. Do better. Iterate quickly and seek feedback. Deliver real value. Be excellent and lift others up. Share learnings and help your teammates improve. LOVE TO BE WRONG Push boundaries. Be outside your comfort zone. Naturally you'll get some things wrong and that's okay. Embrace feedback. Learn from it and get closer to excellence. WIN TOGETHER To achieve our mission, we have to work together. We all have a role to play, so help each other get there.

Just qualified and ready to take on a challenge thatll grow your confidence fast? Our Client an Optometrist in Kirkwall, Orkney, offers a career-defining first role for an ambitious optometrist who wants to develop real clinical skills in a supportive, hands-on environment, all while living somewhere truly special. Why start your career in Orkney? Orkney offers the kind of early-career experience thats hard to find anywhere else. In a single-practice island community, our client provides care across the full spectrum of patient needs, from routine exams to acute presentations and complex pathology. Our clients location means they play a key role in managing conditions locally, working closely with highly supportive secondary-care specialists. For newly qualified optometrists, this creates an exceptional learning environment: Youll see a wider variety of conditions than in most early-career roles, helping you quickly build confidence in recognising and managing pathology. Youll follow patients through from first presentation to resolution, gaining a depth of continuity that strengthens your clinical reasoning. Youll have the opportunity for regular placements with the local NHS hospital (around one day per month) with structured support to gain broader experience of ophthalmology. Youll develop adaptability and problem-solving skills that are the hallmark of strong, independent clinicians. Youll have autonomy when youre ready, but never isolation. Unlike many remote or rural posts, youll always be working alongside experienced colleagues, with immediate access to support and second opinions whenever you need them. Youll gain hands-on experience that accelerates your development far beyond whats typical in a busy, high-street environment. But what truly sets Orkney apart is the community itself. Our clients patients are warm, appreciative, and often families they have cared for across generations. That trust adds a uniquely rewarding dimension to your clinical work, one where your decisions matter, your care is valued, and your contribution is genuinely felt. This is an environment where newly qualified optometrists grow quickly, broaden their skills, and build solid clinical confidence in a supported, encouraging setting. Life beyond the practice Orkney has a thriving community of young professionals, from fellow healthcare workers to creative freelancers, engineers, and teachers. Whether youre into wild swimming, gym sessions, live music, island sports, photography, or just good pub chats, theres a brilliant social scene here if you know where to look (and our client will happily show you!). Youll also enjoy: Stunning coastal walks Regular events and festivals Great cafés, bakeries, and breweries Clubs, gigs, galleries, and sports leagues Its a fantastic place to start your career, meet new people, and enjoy a lifestyle thats both inspiring and grounded. What we offer £55,000K salary (Negotiable) Help with relocation costs Completion Bonus (£5,000 bonus paid upon completion of full years work) 1-year fixed term contract, with the option to extend Structured NHS placement opportunity in partnership with the local hospital Accommodation provided for the year 2 fully paid for return flights per year for visiting friends/family Flexible terms, including support with buying out pre-reg tie-in contracts if youre currently tied to a role you dont wish to continue in Modern tech including OCT imaging Supportive, friendly team who love what they do If youre ready to kick-start your career, build your skills, and live somewhere youll never forget, wed love to hear from you.
