  • Collaborating with a multidisciplinary team to bring innovative ideas to life.
  • Creating documentation that’s as user-friendly as your code.
  • Occasionally stepping into customer support – variety keeps things interesting!

What They're Looking For:

  • A software or electronics degree (or equivalent experience) with a solid track record in software development.
  • Expertise in C/C++ and C#, with experience working at board level and PC applications.
  • Familiarity with embedded communication protocols, motion control, and PID tuning.
  • Confident using GIT and other software tools to streamline projects.
  • A knack for breaking down technical jargon for any audience – clear communication is key.
  • Someone who thrives under pressure, can juggle priorities, and always delivers quality work.

Perks of the Job:

  • 37.5hrs per week which are also flexible 
  • 25 days holiday + bank holidays
  • Life insurance, company pension, and share incentive schemes.
