This start-up defence company are developing technologies that utilise AI at the heart of their products. They are currently growing and are looking to recruit a number of roles including for a Software Engineer to join their team.

As their next Software Engineer hire, you would join a small, growing team that are working on early-stage prototypes as well as more mature product technologies. The position is fully hands-on and requires a good sense of understanding and experience for task prioritisation, as well as ability to work on projects concurrently.

Due to projects being related to defence applications, candidates must be British nationals, resident in the UK for the past 5 years and eligible for security clearance.
