Software Engineer C# / Desktop Applications

Do you want to take on a new challenge?

We're supporting an innovative technology organisation developing advanced scientific and engineering products used around the world. As software continues to play an increasingly important role in product development, we're looking for a Software Engineer to join a collaborative R&D team working on complex desktop applications that interact closely with sophisticated hardware systems.

This is an opportunity to work on challenging engineering problems, contribute to long-term product development and help shape the future direction of world-class technology.

THE OPPORTUNITY

You'll be responsible for developing and enhancing Windows-based desktop software used within advanced scientific and engineering systems. Working as part of a multidisciplinary team, you'll contribute to software design, architecture, implementation and testing whilst collaborating closely with other engineers across hardware, systems and software disciplines.

This role would suit a Software Engineer who enjoys understanding how systems work beneath the surface and has experience building robust, maintainable software products rather than purely web-based applications.

WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING

• Designing, developing and maintaining desktop software applications using C# and Microsoft technologies
• Contributing to software architecture, application design and long-term technical direction
• Developing robust and maintainable code using object-oriented design principles and recognised design patterns
• Building software that interacts closely with complex hardware and engineering systems
• Working within Agile development teams to deliver new product functionality and enhancements

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• Strong commercial experience developing desktop applications using C#
• Good understanding of object-oriented design, software architecture and design patterns
• Experience developing multithreaded, concurrent or asynchronous applications
• Experience designing software interfaces, APIs and maintainable application structures
• Experience working on software products within engineering, scientific, instrumentation, medical device or hardware-focused environments

DESIRABLE EXPERIENCE

• WPF, XAML or MVVM
• Windows desktop application development
• Hardware integration, instrument control or data acquisition systems
• Scientific, imaging, measurement or engineering products
• Real-time or performance-critical software applications

WE WANT YOU!

We're looking for engineers who enjoy solving complex problems and taking ownership of software design, rather than simply implementing requirements. If you have a passion for software engineering, enjoy working close to hardware and want to contribute to products that combine software, engineering and innovation, we'd love to hear from you.
