Software Architect designing high - performance computing software for semiconductor equipment. Work with cross - functional teams and mentor junior software architects and engineers for complex systems.
About the role
- Senior Software Engineer delivering high-assurance C/C++ software for UK defence programmes. Responsible for technical ownership and collaboration in multi-disciplinary teams under operational constraints.
Responsibilities
- Take technical ownership of software delivered into regulated, high assurance environments
- Deliver robust C / C++ software that meets demanding requirements for reliability, safety, and maintainability
- Work across the full software lifecycle, including: requirements analysis, system and software design, implementation and verification, integration and support
- Communicate clearly and precisely with technical peers and programme stakeholders
Requirements
- Proven experience delivering software into defence, aerospace, or safety-critical systems, ideally with exposure to assurance, certification, or safety cases
- Strong, hands-on expertise in C and/or C++ (modern practices, memory/ownership discipline, performance-aware design, and debugging on real targets)
- Experience with embedded and/or Linux-based systems (e.g., RTOS, bare metal, Embedded Linux), including integration constraints and hardware interfaces
- Confidence with toolchains, build systems, and release workflows (e.g., cross-compiling, CMake and equivalents, linkers, packaging, and reproducible builds)
- Evidence-driven engineering: familiarity with coding standards, static analysis, and code review discipline (e.g., MISRA/CERT-style rulesets, treating warnings as actionable)
- Strong testing mindset: unit/integration testing and automation, working effectively within CI pipelines (e.g., Jenkins/GitLab CI or similar)
- Comfortable working with requirements, traceability, and verification evidence (e.g., DOORS or similar tools/processes)
- Security-aware mindset: understanding of secure coding and threat-driven thinking appropriate to defence environments
- Able to make and stand behind engineering decisions and trade-offs, and communicate them clearly to technical peers and programme stakeholders
- Professional maturity to operate effectively in regulated, high-assurance environments where process exists for a reason and delivery still matters
Benefits
- Work on real UK defence programmes —software that is deployed, used, and relied upon
- Long-term, technically demanding work where engineering quality and evidence genuinely matter —not just speed of delivery
- An environment that trusts senior engineers with autonomy, responsibility, and influence over design decisions, ways of working, and technical standards
- Flexible working where possible, balanced with the realities of on-site work in cleared environments
- Competitive compensation and benefits aligned to the market for senior, cleared engineers (details discussed transparently during the process)
