Bermondsey Electronics is a contract electronics development company looking for an embedded software developer to expand the team. The successful applicant will work on a wide variety of systems, with different targets and design goals, based from the office in Bermondsey.


Last year we worked on projects in fitness, audio, the Android platform, wearables, IoT, medical treatment and sports broadcast. ARM (Cortex-M and -A) is the main target. We work on new technologies like AI IoT devices with TensorFlow Lite Micro for neural networks. We have some work in quality controlled industries, like medical and intrinsic safety (SIL / IEC61508 / ISO13485). Not all work is in those industries, however. Many clients value a working prototype over a polished product. Still, there is a requirement for documentation of all projects.


The work is mostly (95%+) software development. Because the business is growing, a new embedded software developer is needed.


This role is best suited to a developer keen to work in a range of emerging technologies. Often clients want something on the cutting edge. This means engaging with new technologies quickly, identifying pain points early and planning to meet these challenges. Clients value responsiveness, accuracy of estimation and on time delivery. Demonstrating these skills at interview will be key to landing this role. The interview process requires an on site assessment.


If you thrive in responsive, hands-on work and enjoy solving difficult problems efficiently, this could be the right role for you!

  • Embedded Linux e.g. Yocto or Buildroot

The ideal candidate will also have some familiarity with:

  • Embedded OS use
  • Low power optimisation
  • Rudimentary assembly language
  • Makefiles
  • Basic soldering
  • Unit testing


36 hours of full time effort are expected every week. Remote working is offered, although 2 days per week on site are required. Flexitime is offered as standard, although all hours must be accountable. 25 days' vacation are offered, growing with tenure.

How to Write an AI CV that Beats ATS (UK examples)

Writing an AI CV for the UK market is about clarity, credibility, and alignment. Recruiters spend seconds scanning the top third of your CV, while Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) check for relevant skills & recent impact. Your goal is to make both happy without gimmicks: plain structure, sharp evidence, and links that prove you can ship to production. This guide shows you exactly how to do that. You’ll get a clean CV anatomy, a phrase bank for measurable bullets, GitHub & portfolio tips, and three copy-ready UK examples (junior, mid, research). Paste the structure, replace the details, and tailor to each job ad.

AI Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Must Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK AI hiring has shifted from titles & puzzle rounds to skills, portfolios, evals, safety, governance & measurable business impact. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews, and how to prepare—especially for LLM application, MLOps/platform, data science, AI product & safety roles. Who this is for: AI/ML engineers, LLM engineers, data scientists, MLOps/platform engineers, AI product managers, applied researchers & safety/governance specialists targeting roles in the UK.

Why AI Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Artificial intelligence is no longer a single-discipline pursuit. In the UK, employers increasingly want talent that can code and communicate, model and manage risk, experiment and empathise. That shift is reshaping job descriptions, training pathways & career progression. AI is touching regulated sectors, sensitive user journeys & public services — so the work now sits at the crossroads of computer science, law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design. This isn’t a buzzword-driven change. It’s happening because real systems are deployed in the wild where people have rights, needs, habits & constraints. As models move from lab demos to products that diagnose, advise, detect fraud, personalise education or generate media, teams must align performance with accountability, safety & usability. The UK’s maturing AI ecosystem — from startups to FTSE 100s, consultancies, the public sector & universities — is responding by hiring multidisciplinary teams who can anticipate social impact as confidently as they ship features. Below, we unpack the forces behind this change, spotlight five disciplines now fused with AI roles, show what it means for UK job-seekers & employers, and map practical steps to future-proof your CV.
