The role

The Senior Embedded Software Engineer will, in conjunction with Electronic and Mechanical colleagues, work on the development of our Spirometry and other devices, from concept through to support of a deployed portfolio of products. The engineer will work within a well-established development process and support our continuous improvement.

Spirometry is a test used to assess how well one s lungs work. It measures how much air one inhales, exhales and flow and pressure profiles. Spirometry is used to diagnose asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and other conditions that affect breathing.
