Are you a Software Architect - Embedded looking for a career move or a new challenge? My client is based in the Glasgow/Central Belt area of Scotland and can offer unrivalled career opportunities to talented individuals.
  
My client is a global technology company designing complex electronic products and systems that are used all over the world.
  
They currently require a Software Architect - Embedded to join their expanding R&D team. You will work on exciting, often global, projects focusing on the next generation of products and systems, which will harness things like AI technologies.
  
As a Software Architect in this team, your main focus will be on the low-level embedded elements of a project. Their broader software solution does involve UI, Databases, Cloud etc, but they are happy to train people in these areas if they don’t have that experience but do have the required low-level embedded background.
  
The team has adopted hybrid working, and you're likely to be in the office 2 days a week on a normal week.
  
Experience & Skills required for the Software Architect - Embedded, will include:

You’ll be used to understanding customer requirements/needs and designing a solution for them.
You must be creative, able to think on your feet and have excellent problem-solving skills.
Strong background in software architecture for embedded systems/electronic products.
Strong background in C / C++ embedded programming. Used to working closely with hardware engineers.
Excellent knowledge of OOD/Object-Oriented Design/Solid Principles
You’ll have good knowledge of data processing and experience in any of the following: 61850, Modbus, Ethernet, TCP/IP, Cybersecurity.   
They are happy to take someone very talented with a small company background, who wants to work for a large company or someone who already has experience in a large technology company.
  
This could suit someone who is doing ‘architecture’ without the job title, so maybe a Principal/Lead Software Engineer or Team Leader, etc.
  
This is an amazing opportunity for someone with real software architect experience who wants to take on a significant new challenge and/or progress their career forward.
  
They are investing heavily in leveraging AI technology into their products and systems, so this is a great opportunity to join somewhere and get exposure to that technology.
  
They also have fantastic career development programs in place.

Where to Advertise Cyber Security Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Where to advertise cyber security jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards, communities and channels that reach offensive, defensive and GRC security talent. The candidate pool is small, heavily vetted and in high demand across government, financial services, critical national infrastructure and the private sector simultaneously. Many of the strongest candidates hold active security clearances, are not actively job-searching through general platforms, and move primarily through specialist networks and trusted referrals. General job boards reach a broad audience but lack the specificity that security professionals expect. Specialist platforms, government-affiliated channels and cleared candidate networks each serve a different part of the market. This guide, published by CybersecurityJobs.tech, covers where to advertise cyber security roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Cyber Security Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Cyber Security Jobs UK 2026: roles, salaries and the threat intelligence, cloud security and zero-trust hiring trends shaping UK cyber careers. Cyber security is one of the few sectors where demand for talent has never once dipped. Every major technological shift of the past decade — cloud migration, remote working, AI adoption, the proliferation of connected devices — has expanded the attack surface that security professionals are expected to defend. And every expansion of that attack surface has generated more jobs. But the cyber security jobs market of 2026 is not simply a larger version of what it was three years ago. It is a structurally different market. The threats have evolved, the technologies used to combat them have changed, the regulatory environment has tightened considerably, and the roles being created reflect all of that. A job seeker who understands only the cyber security landscape of 2023 is already working with an outdated map. The candidates who will thrive over the next three years are those who understand where the sector is heading — which specialisms are attracting the most investment, which technologies are reshaping defensive and offensive security practice, and how the definition of a cyber security professional is broadening well beyond the traditional image of a network defender in a SOC. This article breaks down what the UK cyber security jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the curve.

If you are considering a career in this field—or looking to advance within it—it is essential to understand what employers are really looking for in 2026. This guide breaks down the current expectations, required skills, certifications, and practical experience that can help you stand out in a competitive job market.
