We are seeking highly skilled and motivated Software Engineers with strong expertise in C++ and Object-Oriented Programming, with hands-on experience developing and enhancing complex systems. The role is responsible for designing, developing and maintaining high-performance, reliable software that supports manufacturing operations on the ATP MES platform. The SDET positions combine development and test engineering responsibility; the PostgreSQL positions focus on the data layer of ATP MES for Engineering; the Lead Developer position additionally owns technical direction and mentoring for the ATP MES development team.
Responsibilities
What you will do
•
Design, develop and maintain moderate to highly complex applications using C++.
•
Develop, enhance and debug software modules and components.
•
Apply strong OOP principles — encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism and abstraction — to build maintainable and scalable systems.
•
Design and implement concurrent, multi-threaded C++ software for real-time or high-throughput systems.
•
Contribute to improving existing modules and reusable internal frameworks and libraries.
•
Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior team members.
•
Participate in code reviews and provide constructive feedback to peers.
•
Develop and maintain unit and integration tests; contribute to and maintain CI pipelines.
•
Work with product owners to understand requirements, break down complex problems into manageable tasks and deliver solutions.
•
For SDET positions: design, automate and maintain functional, integration and regression test suites alongside feature development, and own the quality of delivered features end to end.
•
For PostgreSQL positions: design, implement and tune the PostgreSQL data layer — schema design, queries, stored procedures, migrations and performance optimisation — supporting ATP MES for Engineering.
