Why Work Here?

This is a company that is genuinely investing in Belfast. They have hired 12 engineers here already this year, not as a cost saving exercise, but because they are building serious engineering capability in Northern Ireland for the long term. To support that growth, they have just moved into a brand new office in Belfast city centre, purpose built to house the expanding team and give engineers the environment they need to do their best work. The Belfast team is not a satellite office doing maintenance work. It is a core part of a global engineering organisation tackling complex, large scale problems with modern technology and real autonomy.
