Software Engineer

This is not a web or IT development role. It is a hands-on engineering position that involves building simulation environments, integrating hardware, modelling system behaviours, and supporting real-world engineering activities across the full lifecycle.

Engineers from automotive, aerospace, rail, medical devices, robotics, industrial automation, energy, defence, or any other high-integrity engineering sectors will find their experience highly transferable. What will you be working on?

You will join a multidisciplinary team creating real-time simulations and synthetic environments used to design, test, validate and train against complex engineered systems. Your work will include:

• Real-time simulation & modelling (SIL/HIL, behavioural modelling)
• Integration of hardware components with simulation frameworks
• Building C# and/or C++ components for system representation
• Developing digital twins and experimental test environments
• Designing tools to support verification, validation & training
• Creating visualisation and analysis tools for system behaviours

This is real engineering: modelling physics, behaviours, interfaces, and integrating hardware - not enterprise apps or websites., We are continuing to grow our software team across 2026 and welcome applicants from a broad range of engineering sectors, including:

• Automotive - ADAS, powertrain, embedded systems, real-time control
• Aerospace / Avionics - simulation, modelling, system testing
• Rail & Transportation - signalling, control, safety-critical systems
• Medical Devices - regulated software, embedded control
• Robotics & Automation - motion control, real-time behaviour
• Industrial / Manufacturing Automation - PLC, modelling, hardware integration
• Energy / Renewables - control systems, digital twins
