About the role

Cryptic Vector is seeking an Embedded Software Engineer to develop software close to the hardware, in embedded Linux or bare-metal environments. You will design, develop, and implement solutions for complex government technical challenges, interact with embedded hardware, and grow rapidly within a mission-driven team. The role emphasizes learning new languages, expanding technicalrange, and taking on real responsibility to make an impact in high-stakes environments.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
