My client is an engineering-led technology company specialising in intelligent imaging and connected systems, developing innovative products that combine software, hardware, data processing, and cloud-based services

  * Contribute to technical architecture, system design, and engineering best practices.

Required Skills & Experience

  * Proficiency in C and C++.

  * Experience developing applications in Python.

  * Experience with JavaScript and modern web development frameworks.

  * Strong Linux development experience.

  * Experience working with embedded systems, edge computing devices, or

  * hardware-integrated products.

  * Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.

Desirable / Bonus Skills

  * Cloud platform development and deployment experience.

  * Experience building cloud-connected edge devices.

  * Exposure to real-time systems.

  * Practical use of AI-assisted development tools and LLMs within software

  * engineering workflows.

This is an opportunity to work on genuinely varied and challenging projects where your

contribution will directly influence products used in real-world environments.

You will join a small, highly capable team developing innovative vision-based systems

and will have the freedom to make technical decisions, take ownership of outcomes,

and help shape the future direction of our products and platforms
