with supporting capability in Java and Python, and a solid understanding of mathematics

and signal processing to implement high-performance models into production software.

Role

You will work on high-quality, mission-focused software solutions, contributing across

the full lifecycle from architecture and modelling through to integration, verification,

deployment, and assurance, within a secure defence environment.

Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain real-time software using C++, with supporting
• development in Java and Python.
• Apply software architecture principles for large-scale distributed systems.
• Implement mathematical, theoretical, and signal-processing models accurately
• in code.
• Use model-driven development, working with a mixture of autogenerated and
• handwritten software.
• Develop, deploy, and debug applications on Linux-based targets and Windows
• platforms.
• Package and deploy applications using containers (Docker, Podman, Kubernetes)
• and understand orchestration concepts.
• Apply high-integrity coding practices including unit testing, static analysis, and
• clean code principles.
• Perform Software FMEA to identify, evaluate, and mitigate potential failure
• modes.
• Produce and maintain technical documentation across the software lifecycle.
• Support CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, Git, Bitbucket, Artifactory, and Git

runners.

Required Experience

• Experience within software engineering roles.
• Background in C++ development for real-time systems.
• Experience designing and integrating large-scale distributed systems.
• Experience deploying software into containerised runtime environments.
• Experience working with Linux-based infrastructure and operating systems.
• Exposure to model-driven development and mixed autogenerated/handwritten
• codebases.
• Experience within safety-critical or safety-related environments (IEC 61508
• preferred; IEC 62304 or IEC 26262 acceptable).
• Experience operating in regulated environments, ideally within the defence
• sector.

Required Skills

• Advanced proficiency in C++, with working knowledge of Java and Python.
• Knowledge of software architectures and distributed systems design.
• Computational mathematics and signal processing application.
• TCP/IP and IP networking protocols.
• Linux and Windows deployment and debugging.
• GPU programming awareness (CUDA, HIP, OpenCL).
• Web services and virtualisation technologies.

Required Education

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science,

Electronics, Mathematics, or a related discipline, or equivalent practical industry

experience.
