hackajob is collaborating with CoreTech Security to connect them with exceptional professionals for this role. Our Capability Development team develops bespoke software for our clients in the Cyber Security domain. We may be building assured software that prioritises engineering rigour and reliability, rapid cyber solutions that stitch together tooling for high-impact results, or blended operational systems that address real-world challenges in the field.
Common to all is commitment to technically led decisions, to meaningful technical challenge, and to engaging career paths where your work makes it off the shelf and into the hands of our customers. All of our roles demand strong technical expertise, meticulous attention to detail, and a commitment to delivering robust, dependable solutions that our clients can rely on when it matters most.
Across our projects, we work on a variety of platforms; typically iOS, Android, and Linux, with opportunities on embedded systems and other specialised platforms. Our bread and butter is C, C++, and Java, but we're comfortable in Python, Rust, and JavaScript.
We emphasise having a comprehensive understanding of the programming languages, platforms, and tooling we rely on. That deep technical knowledge has helped us earn a reputation for writing novel, robust, and maintainable solutions to our client's challenging and fascinating problems and we regularly see the direct impact of our work.
We're led by engineers and empowered to optimise our (lightweight!) development processes with the knowledge gained from each project. We are looking for a candidate who holds an active Developed Vetting security clearance to join our team.
Key Responsibilities- Designing a new clean-slate product with complete autonomy over its architecture.
- Adding new capabilities to, or replacing a core component of, an existing product.
- Throwing together a quick-and-dirty prototype to confirm the feasibility of a proposed technical approach; iterating until it meets requirements.
- For this role you'll be hands-on in the day-to-day delivery of projects. Typically, this will see you working with one or two other colleagues at a time.
- In addition, you'll take an active role in unlocking the potential of junior colleagues: encouraging idiomatic code, demonstrating engineering rigour, and sharing hard-won knowledge with your peers.
- You’ll also help drive our engineering processes to maintain code quality while balancing realistic delivery timescales and client requirements.
- Professional experience in the design and implementation of complex projects, ideally both clean-slate projects and updates to legacy code bases.
- Comfortable with platform APIs, development environments and native debugging approaches.
- Experience leading a team of developers through a complete project lifecycle, engaging in requirements capture, design review, implementation, and assurance.
- Commitment to code correctness and quality assurance through static analysis, code review, automated testing, and continuous integration.
- This vacancy is for experienced software engineers and will require skills and experience in several of the areas listed as well as the ability to lead technical projects.
- Promotions are based on technical excellence and reviewed regularly.
- 25 days holiday per year.
