Software Engineer

Cambridge, UK (onsite) | Full-Time | Permanent | Up to £55,000

I am currently recruiting for a Cambridge-based engineering business developing advanced RF modules and IC products. Their aim is to solve their customers’ toughest challenges and enable them to stay ahead by pushing the boundaries of RF design.

We are currently seeking a Software Engineer who will design and deliver production-quality software that brings advanced RF measurement and optimisation algorithms to life on complex RF hardware.

You’ll be responsible for the following:

• Design, develop, and maintain Python-based software used for algorithm development and deployment.
• Work closely with RF hardware and systems engineers to ensure strong alignment between software behavior and real-world hardware.
• Integrate, test, and validate software and algorithms on hardware prototypes and production systems.
• Apply sound software engineering practices, including modular design, version control, testing, and documentation.
• Help diagnose and troubleshoot software and algorithm performance issues during development and deployment.
• Balance rapid experimentation with the evolution of code into robust, long-lived software.
• Develop unit tests, validation tools, and reference datasets to verify algorithm correctness and support robust regression testing throughout development.
• Support integration with measurement systems, test equipment, and internal tooling as needed for algorithm validation.
• Contribute to documentation and technical knowledge-sharing within the engineering team.

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electronic Engineering, Physics, or a closely related discipline.
• Proactive approach and a willingness to tackle complex technical challenges.
• Demonstrable experience in software development, with strong proficiency in Python.
• Understanding of RF measurements and related test procedures is a strong plus.
• Familiarity with test equipment interfacing and communication protocols.
• Experience with real time processing is desirable.
• Prior experience working with RF modules, wireless systems, or telecommunications is a strong plus.

You’ll be working out of their Cambridge office. The role is mostly onsite (may be some WFH flexibility). You can expect a salary of up to £55,000 plus benefits.
