## Description

We are seeking a highly capable Software Engineer to design and build real-time control and monitoring applications that interface directly with hardware, sensors, and industrial systems.

Working closely with systems, controls, and hardware engineers, you will develop high-performance backend software using C# / .NET, operating close to the metal in safety-critical environments. This is not a purely web-based role - it requires strong systems thinking and hands-on problem-solving.

What you will do:

 * Develop high-performance applications using C# / .NET
 * Build multi-threaded, asynchronous, event-driven systems
 * Implement TCP/IP and UDP socket communications
 * Interface with hardware including CANbus devices, sensors, and controllers
 * Implement and decode protocols such as:
 * Parse CAN frames, PGNs, and device-specific messages
 * Develop real-time data processing and control logic
 * Design secure APIs for telemetry, monitoring, and command & control
 * Debug and optimise system performance, latency, and reliability
 * Collaborate closely with hardware, controls, and systems engineering teams
