The role focuses on ingesting, controlling, and processing data from coastal surveillance cameras, radio direction finders (RDF), radar, AIS, and other maritime sensors, and exposing this data in a consistent, operationally robust format., You'll work on the "sensors at the fringe" fixed and mobile surveillance equipment such as radars, cameras, RDF, AIS, and other specialist maritime sensors. Your mission as a Sensor Software Engineer will be to integrate, calibrate, and optimise these systems in non-production environments, building the software that makes their outputs usable for downstream systems and training our Delivery Team for field deployment. The role of Sensor Software Engineer spans multi-domain sensor fusion, AI-assisted analysis, anomaly detection, augmented reality, autonomous sentry operation, and evidence collection. You'll work closely with colleagues across software, hardware, data science, and infrastructure to bring innovative, high-performance edge solutions to life. Sensor Integration & Control * Develop integrations with maritime sensors including: + Coastal surveillance cameras (e.g. PTZ, thermal, EO/IR) + Radio Direction Finders (RDF) + Radar and AIS data sources * Implement control interfaces (e.g. PTZ, presets, tracking handoff) * Work with proprietary and undocumented APIs where required Backend Development (.NET) * Build robust services using C# and .NET * Develop APIs and services for downstream consumers * Optimise for performance, reliability, and low-latency processing * Work within distributed, containerised environments System Integration * Work across a distributed system (e.g. message brokers, microservices) * Integrate with existing platform components and abstraction layers * Support deployments in on-prem / air-gapped environments ## Related Videos - [Docker network without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1418-docker-network-without-docker) - [Remote Driving on Plant Grounds with State-of-the-Art Cloud Technologies](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/251-remote-driving-on-plant-grounds-with-state-of-the-art-cloud-technologies) - [Docker Compose: Rediscovered](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1978-docker-compose-rediscovered) - [Computer Vision from the Edge to the Cloud done easy](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/263-computer-vision-from-the-edge-to-the-cloud-done-easy) - [Docker exec without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1094-docker-exec-without-docker) - [Docker build without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100114-docker-build-without-docker) ## Related Articles - [Software Engineer Salary London](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/252-software-engineer-salary-london) - [Data Engineer Salary UK](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/253-data-engineer-salary-uk) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [Dev Digest 134 - Where pixels sing?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/477-dev-digest-134-where-pixels-sing) - [Software Engineer Salary in The UK](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/231-software-engineer-salary-in-the-uk) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated)
