C# Software Engineer

Location: Waterbeach

This C# Software Engineer role sits at the heart of serious manufacturing automation. You’ll be building and improving software that talks directly to a wide range of real-world equipment including power supplies, acquisition systems, cameras and test hardware - with plenty of scope for developing skills in parallel processing, performance optimisation and multi‑threading.

The work is broad and hands-on, covering automation, databases, test and calibration workflows, with exposure to machine learning and emerging AI where it adds value.

If you are a C# Software Engineer enjoy having your fingers in lots of pies and working on end‑to‑end systems rather than a narrow slice of software, this role offers real technical depth and variety.
