C++ Software Engineer

• Develop and maintain software for complex robotic and autonomous platforms
• Write high-quality, maintainable C++ for engineering applications
• Build software used to control, configure, and monitor physical systems
• Integrate software with hardware, sensors, and other system components
• Develop interfaces between different parts of the wider robotic system
• Work with networked and real-time data
• Debug and resolve problems across the software and hardware boundary
• Support integration, testing, and deployment onto real engineering platforms

Technologies:

• Hardware
• Support
• Linux
• Robotics
• Windows
• C++

• Strong commercial software development experience using C++
• Experience developing software for physical products, equipment, or complex engineered systems
• Good understanding of object-oriented software design and modern development practices
• Experience working with Linux and/or Windows
• Comfortable debugging complex software and integration problems
• Experience with networking, communications, or distributed software would be useful
• An engineering, computer science, or related technical degree, or equivalent industry experience
• Experience in robotics is highly relevant, but we are also interested in C++ engineers from other technically complex environments such as marine technology, autonomous systems, aerospace, automotive, defence, industrial automation, instrumentation, or other hardware-focused engineering sectors

We are an established international engineering organisation expanding our software team to support a range of advanced underwater robotic platforms. This is a hands-on hybrid role based near Portsmouth, typically with four days onsite and one day remote. The position offers a salary of up to £65,000 depending on experience, a permanent contract, and the opportunity to work closely with software, electronics, and systems engineers on real-world robotic systems.
