Shape the Future of Mobility Technology
At Ultron Technologies, part of the global Handicare & Savaria Group, we’re transforming how people move safely and independently in their homes. We’re now looking for a Senior Embedded Software Engineer to take ownership of the technology powering our stairlift division. We're looking for a good all-rounder with both hardware and software development skills.
This is more than just a senior role - it’s your opportunity to lead from the front, influence product innovation, mentor a growing team, and establish yourself as the go-to technical expert within a multi-national organisation.
What You’ll Be Doing
You’ll sit at the heart of our engineering team, driving both hardware and firmware development:
- Design and develop analogue and digital electronic systems (motor control experience advantageous)
- Create schematics and PCB layouts, and lead board bring-up and validation
- Develop embedded firmware (C/C++) for microcontroller- and processor-based systems
- Integrate key communication protocols including:
- SPI, I2C, UART, CAN
- USB, Ethernet, and wireless interfaces
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams including mechanical, software, manufacturing, and product engineering
- Support prototype builds, design verification, EMC testing, and production readiness
- Conduct root cause analysis and resolve complex technical issues
- Contribute to system architecture, technical documentation, and engineering best practices
- Mentor junior engineers and provide technical leadership where required
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
