Senior Software Engineer

Location: Southampton, UK (Hybrid – 3 days per week on-site)

There are easier ways to make a living.

But if you’re the sort of software engineer who’d rather work on hard problems than spend your days tweaking yet another app interface, this might be worth a read.

You’ll be joining a small, sharp team developing software that underpins next-generation satellite and space communications systems
. It’s complex, real-time, performance-critical work — the kind where a fraction of a millisecond matters, and where your code has a direct impact on what eventually flies into orbit.

You’ll need solid experience with C/C++ on Linux
, a grasp of how real-time systems behave on either ARM and/ or Intel x86 platforms
, and the mindset to figure things out when there isn’t a Stack Overflow answer waiting for you. If you can script in Python and have some exposure to wireless comms or signal processing
, all the better.

The people here are serious about engineering. No cutting corners, no “that’ll do.” You’ll be pushed, but you’ll also develop faster than you thought possible — because when the bar is this high, you either level up or get left behind.

The work is challenging. The standards are uncompromising. And the pay-off is getting to shape technology that ends up in space.

If that sounds like the kind of growth you’re after, let’s talk.
