Overview
Join a team at the forefront of developing advanced embedded and application software solutions that enable secure and high-performance systems. You'll work across multiple concurrent research, development, and production programmes, ranging from tens of £k to several £m. Delivering high-quality software in demanding, mission-critical environments!
You will define, architect, design, develop, document, and test embedded and/or application software as part of a collaborative engineering team of 5-20 engineers. The role spans the full software development lifecycle, from requirements analysis through to verification, delivery, and maintenance.
Responsibilities
Define, architect, design, develop, document, and test embedded and/or application software.
Apply object-oriented design, modern coding standards, and best practices (TDD, CI/CD, DevSecOps).
Translate system-level designs into robust software architectures and requirements.
Use modelling tools (e.g. Enterprise Architect, RSA) to create and maintain accurate design artefacts.
Estimate and manage effort to meet cost, quality, and schedule targets.
Contribute to process improvement and technical innovation within the team.
Communicate complex technical ideas clearly to a range of stakeholders.
Ensure compliance with all information security and quality standards.
Requirements
Essential:
Eligible for SC and DV security clearance.
