A small engineering company developing bespoke instrumentation, industrial automation and data acquisition systems is looking to hire a Software Engineer to support continued growth.
The role would suit a software engineer with:
* A good practical understanding of both hardware and software
* Confidence with programming in C or C++ but with the desire to learn new languages
* Strong problem solving skills and a natural interest in technology (and making things work!)
* Good communication skills with a versatile and flexible attitude to work
This is a hands-on role working on real-world engineering problems for various applications including industrial automation, scientific experimentation and product development and validation / test environments.
Projects range from custom data acquisition platforms and industrial monitoring systems through to detector readout systems, specialised measurement equipment and more.
Typical involvements: Software Engineer (C / C++)
* Developing software for instrumentation and industrial measurement systems and more
* Building applications primarily in C / C++ or Rust, alongside some Python, TypeScript and / or LabVIEW where appropriate
* Working across the full engineering lifecycle from concept through deployment
* Integrating software with hardware, data acquisition devices and embedded Linux systems
* Supporting customer projects and occasionally visiting customer sites within the UK
* Helping improve engineering practices including testing, CI and tooling
Skills / Knowledge Required: Software Engineer (C/ C++)
* A degree in an engineering discipline coupled with 3-4 years of industry experience working within software programming
* Strong software engineering fundamentals but with a broad systems engineering approach (i.e. understanding the wider system, hardware, integration, etc)
* Good C/C++ experience. Also any experience with Rust or an interest in Rust would be useful.
* Experience working with hardware, instrumentation and real-world engineering systems
* Comfortable working independently within a small engineering business
* Familiarity with Git / GitLab, automated / unit testing and modern software engineering practices
* Experience of Linux based systems
Beneficial skills:
* Some embedded Linux experience would be beneficial as would experience of FPGAs or PCBAs
* Practical electronics skills could be very useful
* Experience with bespoke data acquisition and control systems or integrating hardware and software for unique engineering applications (e.g., test cells, scientific instrumentation, industrial adaptation of lab equipment, etc)
There’s a broad mix of work spanning industrial automation, scientific instrumentation and bespoke engineering systems, so an interest in understanding how physical systems work is important.
