Software Engineer C#- up to £60k - ID42214

Are you ready to create software that powers next-generation industrial technology?

Do you enjoy working across hardware, user interfaces, and R&D tooling?

Want to join a collaborative tech company where innovation and curiosity are celebrated?

If so, we’re working with a fast-growing, science-led technology business that’s pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in materials engineering. This is a unique opportunity to work on truly novel systems that have broad-reaching applications across multiple high-tech sectors.

Why This Role is Great

You’ll be part of a close-knit, multidisciplinary team developing bespoke software for precision machinery and advanced material systems. The work is varied, impactful, and technically stimulating—giving you the chance to grow as a developer while solving meaningful challenges.

In this role, you’ll:

• Build and refine software solutions using C#, Dart, and other languages
• Develop operator and engineer-facing user interfaces
• Contribute to tools for real-time monitoring, control, and experimentation
• Integrate your code with hardware, optical, and electronic systems
• Guide and evolve system architecture and design decisions
• Prioritise application security and system stability
• Respond to support queries and enhance existing features
• Document your work clearly for knowledge-sharing and maintainability

About You

You’ll thrive here if you enjoy working at the intersection of software and hardware, and value collaboration, autonomy, and continuous learning.

We’re particularly keen to hear from those with:

• 2+ years of professional software development experience
• Solid C# skills (additional languages welcome too)
• Experience working in a version-controlled, team-based environment (e.g., Git)
• A good grasp of debugging, troubleshooting, and system-level thinking
• Clear communication and a practical, detail-oriented approach
• A degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related scientific field

Experience in any of the following would be a plus:

• Software for industrial machinery or embedded systems
• User interface design or UX for technical users
• Machine vision or image-based automation
• Cybersecurity or secure coding practices
• DevOps, CI/CD pipelines, or cloud services
• Startup, scale-up, or R&D-heavy teams

If your skills are adjacent or transferable-apply! Passion, initiative, and curiosity matter as much as specific tools or titles.
