Are you a hands-on Software Engineer looking to take technical ownership of complex, real-world systems while influencing how high-impact products are designed, delivered and evolved?

This is a senior, delivery-focused engineering role offering real technical influence across a multidisciplinary team working in the navigation domain. You will play a central role in shaping software solutions from early concept through to deployment, balancing strong engineering principles with pragmatic delivery.

Working closely with Software Engineers, Computer Vision and Navigation specialists, you will help integrate classical navigation, sensor fusion and AI-enabled components into robust, customer-focused products. The role offers variety, technical depth and responsibility across multiple concurrent projects.

This position suits an experienced engineer who enjoys ownership, technical leadership and working across system boundaries, without moving into people management. For this position you will need to be able to qualify for SC clearance.

The Role:

• Technical ownership of software design across complex, multi-disciplinary systems
• Hands-on development across core logic, system integration and performance-critical components
• Leading technical decision-making with a strong focus on customer value and delivery
• Breaking down complex problems into clear, deliverable work packages
• Supporting planning and prioritisation across multiple projects
• Reviewing code, mentoring engineers and troubleshooting technical issues

The Person

• Strong software engineering background with experience in Python, TypeScript, C++ and modern deployment tools
• Proven ability to design and deliver complex, real-world software systems end to end
• Comfortable working across navigation, sensor-driven, AI or computer vision-enabled systems
• Eligible for SC clearance
• Confident operating in a hands-on role alongside technical leadership responsibilities
