Software Engineer

This role owns the software that runs manufacturing end-of-line (EOL) testing for high-power electronics used in global defence. You will build and maintain robust test applications, integrate with REST APIs and internal tools, and debug issues across software, hardware, and wiring to ensure fast, repeatable pass/fail decisions and traceability. You will work closely with electronics, firmware, and production teams to ship deterministic, operator-friendly tests for high-volume throughput.

Responsibilities

• Build EOL Test Software: Writing and maintaining robust test applications that control instruments, fixtures, and devices under test.
• Ship for High-Volume Throughput: Designing tests that are deterministic, operator-friendly, and quick—without compromising quality.
• Integrate Manufacturing Systems: Interfacing with REST APIs and internal tools to record results, drive workflows, and improve traceability.
• Debug the Real World: Finding root causes across software, hardware, and wiring when stations fail—then hardening the system so it doesn’t happen again.
• Work Independently: Taking clean sheet goals and turning them into solid, production-ready software.

Requirements

• You have industry experience that demonstrates practical engineering judgment.
• You are strong in Python, including:
• Async programming with AnyIO/Asyncio
• Object-oriented design
• Type annotations
• Working on large, multi-module codebases
• Integrating with internal services via serial/communication interfaces and REST APIs
• You have strong debugging skills.
• You learn quickly and work well with minimal supervision.

Nice to have

• Front-end web development and UI/UX design experience
• Embedded systems experience, ideally STM32
• Internal applications experience, ideally Python, C/C++ and C#
• Familiarity with communication protocols such as CAN and UART
• Experience with high-volume manufacturing environments

Benefits

• Real Impact, Real Fast: Your work directly supports global allies and pushes the boundaries of what’s possible in flight. We work with the best of the best in the US and Europe to play our part in global security. We’re growing fast because people like what we’re building.
• True Autonomy: No micromanagement. You are trusted to manage your work in a way that suits your life. We do what we can to support flexible working wherever possible, but this is not a hybrid or remote role.
• Comprehensive Support: We take care of our people. You’ll have access to additional paid parental leave, and a top-tier Employee Assistance Program (EAP) that includes safety, medical and mental health support for you and your family.
• A Collaborative, Stable Company: No bureaucracy and no unnecessary layers. No investors pulling the plug. No mass AI layoffs. Just a great group of people working hard to do something important.
