• Support technical decision‑making, explaining trade‑offs and best practices to clients and stakeholders.
• Contribute to a culture of continuous learning, collaboration, and technical excellence.

We’re looking for innovative engineers who thrive on solving complex challenges. You’ll bring a mix of hands‑on technical ability, curiosity, and strong communication skills — with a desire to make an impact in the Defence and National Security space.

• Active UK Developed Vetting (DV) clearance – MOD DV or eDV accepted
• Proven software development experience with one or more of Java, TypeScript, JavaScript, or Python.
• Strong understanding of modern software engineering practices and design patterns.
• Experience working in Agile delivery teams (Scrum or Kanban).
• A proactive mindset — someone who spots opportunities, champions small details, and delivers real value for clients.

You’ll be joining a growing, mission‑focused engineering community that values collaboration, technical excellence, and personal growth. Expect challenging work, the freedom to innovate, and the opportunity to make a tangible impact on projects that matter.
