PERMANENT ROLE COULD BE CONTRACT FOR THE RIGHT INDIVIDUAL

GLASGOW OR HYBRID

ROLE

I seek a Software engineer who thinks like a control engineer — deterministic timing, signal flows, real-world data, not abstract architecture. Comfortable with the discipline that comes with safety-critical code. Has built real fire control, flight control, or precision motion control software in production.

To own hard real-time embedded code for fire control loop and beam director control. Deterministic threading discipline, bounded latency design, safety-critical code patterns. The hardware-software interface specialist on the team.

WHAT WE NEED FROM YOU / ESSENTIAL SKILLS

· Hard real-time embedded systems development, deterministic threading discipline, bounded latency design

· Strong C++ with disciplined patterns (MISRA or equivalent). Possibly Rust.

· Real-time OS comfort (Linux PREEMPT_RT, VxWorks, RTEMS, or equivalent)

· Safety-critical software experience

· Hardware-software interface comfort

DESIRABLES

· Flight control or weapon control software background

· DO-178 or DEF-STAN 00-55/00-56 awareness

· Control theory depth

· FPGA awareness

· EtherCAT or TSN networking

· Formal methods exposure
