Are you interested in working in a fast-paced industry, shaping the future of live media content production? Do you want to build innovative tooling that supports the very latest emerging technologies within the broadcast and video production industries?
Leader Electronics of Europe Limited builds reliable and versatile test and measurement solutions that allow broadcasters and content creators to commission, debug and monitor their video-delivery systems and content workflows. We deliver innovative rasterizer and analysis solutions that can generate and inspect video signals in real-time at speeds of up to 100Gbps. We develop technology for both emerging and existing broadcast solutions, working with both IP and SDI standards to enable our customers to deliver and broadcast high-quality 4K, High-Dynamic-Range (HDR), High-Frame-Rate content. Our solutions are used globally by many of the largest broadcasters, Outside Broadcast (OB) trucks, electronics manufacturers, and video production environments.
We’re seeking skilled, dedicated, and self-motivated Software Engineers with a keen interest in learning and innovating with the latest and emerging technologies and standards. A successful candidate will have a solid background in designing and developing re-usable, high-quality solutions for embedded platforms, with strong analytical and technical abilities, excellent organisational and communication skills, an ability to learn quickly and to deliver results in a fast-paced environment.
You will join our rapidly growing engineering team to lead the development and innovation of new signal analysis and generation solutions, working from product specification through to implementation and validation. You will be involved in the entire software stack, from high-level software (that powers our UI, integration services and control software) all the way down to the bespoke Linux device drivers that interface with our custom hardware. You will learn about emerging broadcast technologies and will build solutions that use them, leveraging some of the latest embedded-compute platforms. Some of the technologies used within our products include Qt, Linux, C++, Yocto, ARM and FPGAs.
You will have the option of hybrid working but will be required to travel to our office in Thatcham when needed (e.g. for on-site collaborative meetings or where you need to be hands-on with physical hardware).
