Senior Software Engineer

£45,000–£80,000 – C++ Software Engineers (All Levels) – Edinburgh Hybrid (2 Days On-Site)

We’re at a pivotal stage in building the first of two new R&D teams for a cutting-edge medical technology company based in Edinburgh. This is a rare opportunity to join a greenfield project, with up to 22 hires planned across Principal, Senior, and Mid-Level Software Engineer roles.

The product is a next-generation, globally distributed medical device, backed by a major parent organisation that ensures long-term stability and investment. The company offers a positive work-life balance, with standard working hours (Monday to Friday, 9am–5:30pm).

We’re looking for experienced C++ developers who can deliver high-quality code in a regulated development environment.

Key Skills:

• Strong C++ (C++11 or newer)
• Experience with Qt
• Familiarity with at least one modern desktop UI framework (e.g., WPF, WinUI 3, UWP—not WinForms or web-based frameworks)
• Linux development experience

A few quick questions to help with screening:

• How much experience do you have with C++11 or newer?
• What Qt experience do you have?
• What desktop UI frameworks have you used example, QT, WPF, etc(excluding WinForms, Win32, or web)?
• When did you last use Linux in a development context?

If this sounds interesting, I’d be happy to share more—including the client name, job description, and full details on the product roadmap and growth opportunities.

Feel free to reach out with any questions.
