Taking ownership of projects from design through to deployment and ongoing support.
Contributing to a long-term product redevelopment programme.

Full software development lifecycle experience.
Why join?
Salary between £40,000 - £50,000.
Work on software supporting critical national infrastructure and law enforcement.
Join a friendly, collaborative engineering team of experienced developers.
Genuine ownership of your work from concept through to deployment.
Major product redevelopment programme offering long-term technical challenges.
Career progression as the business continues to grow.
25 days holiday, increasing with service.
6% employer pension contribution.
Private medical insurance.
Life assurance.

Free on-site parking.
Location
This role is based at the company's Birmingham office. You'll initially be expected to work predominantly on-site to collaborate with the wider engineering team, with flexibility available as you become established within the business.
Security Clearance
Due to the nature of the projects you'll be working on, successful applicants must be eligible to obtain UK Government Security Clearance.
