We are seeking a Senior Software Developer to play a key role in designing, building and maintaining core software applications that support advanced automated materials handling, warehouse automation and robotics-led production environments. This is a software-led position, focused on developing production-grade applications, platforms and user interfaces. While the software operates within an industrial setting, the primary responsibility is software engineering - not hardware configuration or PLC programming. You will join a team responsible for modernising an existing technology stack, contributing to the transition from Python/Django to C#/.NET and Blazor. This role offers ownership across application design, architecture, and long-term maintainability, alongside close collaboration with engineering teams to ensure software aligns with real-world systems.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, develop and maintain core software applications used in automation and production environments
- Lead hands-on development in C#/.NET, contributing to system migration and platform evolution
- Build and enhance operator-facing applications, dashboards and visualisation tools displaying real-time system data
- Own application logic, workflows and behaviour within production systems
- Contribute to overall software architecture, technical standards and development best practices
- Implement and maintain version control and CI/CD pipelines using GitHub
- Ensure applications are reliable, maintainable and resilient, with a strong emphasis on fault handling and diagnostics
- Collaborate with controls, robotics and mechanical engineers to ensure seamless integration with physical systems
- Support testing, commissioning and deployment of software releases
- Mentor junior developers and contribute to technical decision-making within the team
