Software Engineer

Our world-leading Time & Frequency department is seeking a Software Engineer.

This is an exceptional opportunity to join the global authority in precision timing at a defining moment for UK digital infrastructure.

Backed by a government investment of £180 million in the National Timing Centre (NTC) programme, we are developing a world-first resilient time distribution capability that will provide industry with a robust complement to satellite systems such as GPS – which are increasingly vulnerable to disruption from solar storms, jamming and spoofing. This will underpin essential services; including (though not limited to)

• Telecommunications,
• Online banking,
• Emergency response,
• Transport networks, and
• Wider digital and data-driven operations,

Together, these services form the backbone of modern society - and you will help ensure they remain secure, reliable and robust even if global navigation satellite systems fail.

As Software Engineer , you’ll collaborate with prominent Scientists and Engineers to develop and implement innovative, production-ready software to time, quality, and cost.

Key responsibilities

• Collaborating with senior stakeholders to ensure that software aligns with business strategy
• Working cross-functionally to gather project requirements, analyse feasibility, and provide technical recommendations
• Working as an Agile Software team, taking responsibility for your own deliverables, and reviewing the work of others
• Code reviews to ensure cleanliness, efficiency and quality through testing and debugging, and adherence of standards throughout the software development cycle
• Risk communication and mitigation
• Explaining complex tech concepts and advisory to internal and external stakeholders, from technical and non-technical backgrounds
