We create and maintain bespoke software products that help our customers protect national security – both at home and overseas.

From start to finish, you’ll be involved in the whole process, creating a wide range of components whilst working with a variety of customers and design engineers. You’ll have the freedom to be creative and work in your own way to make sure the finished product is the best it can be.

As part of a Product Development team, you’ll use your technical knowledge and ideas to work on hardware products and solutions, creating and maintaining software for specialist devices. Every day is different: one day you could be producing code to introduce new features to a product; and the next you could be collaborating with a team on designing the next set of products.

This role comes with a lot of responsibility, but we’ll make sure you’ll up to it. By giving you on-the-job training with dedicated time to innovate and research as part of your development. The most important thing you need is a willingness to learn.

Putting your skills to use

Using your skills and knowledge, you’ll:

• Design, develop and document embedded software to the highest standards.
• Verify designs by creating and implementing functional tests and performing code reviews.
• Support products and investigate reported defects.
• Contribute to project planning and meetings.

Technical skills

We need you to already be able to:

• Design, develop and test embedded software in C or C++.
• Understand electronic designs, particularly for digital logic and microcontroller circuits.
• Develop embedded software to run in either an RTOS, Linux or bare metal environment.
• Debug embedded software using laboratory test equipment.

These are desirable – they’d strengthen your application:

• A relevant 2:1 degree or equivalent work experience.
• Experience in real-time software or digital signal processing.
• Ability to understand and debug others’ software.
• Knowledge of Networking and Communications (e.g. TCP/IP, HTTP, Protocol Buffers, application of encryption and compression).
• Experience of Unit Testing and Static Analysis.
• Knowledge of microcontroller architectures, especially ARM.

Your Personal skills

• You love learning. You’re always improving both your technical and non-technical skills.
• You work well with other skilled engineers, combining your collective knowledge to produce better results.
• You see things through to the end. You’ve got the drive to finish projects to a high standard without getting stuck on adding extra features.
• You enjoy coming up with innovative solutions to hard problems. And you know when to step away from best practice.
• You’re always on top of your workload. So you can adapt to changing demands on your time.
• You can put a plan in place to make improvements.
• You know how to work with customers to clearly understand what they need and what they expect.

• 25 days’ annual leave, rising to 30 after 5 years’ service.
• 8 Bank Holiday days off in addition to your annual leave.
• 2½ additional days leave (set dates through the year).

• Paid overtime or Time Off in Lieu. Your salary is for your contracted hours. If you work more, and sometimes it’s needed, we believe you should be rewarded for that.

• Pension. Our Pension scheme is Alpha. It’s generous and easy to set up.
