C++, embedded Linux and/or AV, imaging, ML, architecture, mostly remote

This focused "skunkworks" team are developing and innovating around the core technologies which underpin modern top-tier audio-visual devices. Their broad remit extends across embedded system features, applying computer vision and image processing techniques, and applying new algorithms at the device or imaging level.

Based in Cambridge and largely working remotely, the team collaborate with colleagues in a number of countries. This is both research and development since product-quality code ultimately needs to be committed. Work is primarily in C++ but may extend to a range of other languages, for instance JavaScript for the web or Java for mobile.

To join them you’ll need:

  • A relevant degree or equivalent career background
  • Strong object-oriented C++ skills applied to Linux systems
  • An appreciation for the full SDLC, collaborative processes, source control (e.g. Git)

And a cross-section of skills from some of the following areas:

  • Embedded Linux / driver development, assembly-language, parallel / vectorised / SIMD code
  • Image processing, computer vision, OpenCV, MATLAB
  • Algorithm development, machine learning
  • Networking, USB, WiFi, Bluetooth or comparable
  • System architecture, feature design, awareness of technology trends
  • Additional languages such as JavaScript, Python, Swift, Java, Lua

In addition to a highly-competitive salary and a remote-first approach to work (visiting the office monthly) the company offer 25-35 days holiday (purchase the extra 10), a matched pension, significant bonuses, a share purchase scheme, professional development and supportive programmes.
