Job description

Are you an experienced software engineer who enjoys solving genuinely complex technical challenges?

We’re hiring a Software Engineering Specialist to join a highly skilled engineering team, led by a true giant in the space, delivering bespoke software solutions that support critical national programmes.

This isn’t a role where you’ll spend your days maintaining legacy systems or sitting through endless meetings. You’ll be working directly with customers, shaping technical direction, solving difficult engineering problems and helping to build software that really matters.

What you’ll be doing

  • Designing and delivering high-quality software solutions
  • Working directly with customers to solve complex technical challenges
  • Influencing technical strategy and engineering direction
  • Mentoring and coaching other software engineers
  • Taking ownership of delivery from concept through to deployment

We’re interested in people with experience in:

  • Python
  • C#
  • C++
  • Java
  • C
  • Objective-C

Additional experience with Docker, Jenkins, Git, JavaScript, MEAN Stack, Agile delivery or technical leadership would be highly beneficial.

What makes this opportunity different?

  • Complex, mission-critical engineering challenges
  • Modern technology environments
  • Significant technical autonomy and influence
  • Opportunity to mentor and develop engineers
  • Work that has a tangible real-world impact

Location

  • London / Manchester
  • Cheltenham
  • Ipswich

Security Requirements

Due to the nature of the work, applicants must hold or be eligible to obtain Developed Vetting (DV) Security Clearance.

If you’re looking for an engineering role where technical excellence is genuinely valued and you’ll be trusted to solve challenging problems alongside exceptional engineers, we’d love to hear from you.
