Senior Software Support Engineer CUAS / Radars / Sensor Systems Cambridge
Are you a hands-on engineer who loves solving deep technical problems and becoming the go-to expert in your field? Maybe you ve reached a point within Software Development where you fancy a bit of a change, but staying technical?
This is a great opportunity to join a small, highly skilled engineering team working on radar and sensor data processing systems used across defence and CUAS applications
It s not your typical support role you ll be writing code, troubleshooting complex integrations, and working directly with other engineers who speak your language. You ll get to build long-term product knowledge, technical depth, and genuine expertise in a niche but fascinating domain
What you ll be doing:
- Acting as a technical expert, supporting customers with complex software and system issues
- Writing and debugging code in C++ (and sometimes C#) to solve real engineering problems (don t worry specific C++ and C# experience isn t needed, as you ll learn the products in the position itself as long as you have a programming background)
- Helping customers integrate products into their systems and advising on technical best practices
- Working closely with internal teams to improve documentation and feed back product insights
- Building deep knowledge in radar and sensor data processing over time
Essential skills:
- Background in CUAS, radar, or sensor systems
- Confident debugging, troubleshooting, and solving complex technical issues
- Comfortable working with technical customers in a support or applications role
- Happy working onsite in a small, collaborative engineering environment
- Self-sufficient, pragmatic, and keen to develop long-term expertise
Desirable skills:
- Strong hands-on experience in C++ (C# / .NET experience a plus)
- Experience with .NET / C#, embedded systems, or DevOps
- Background in physics, maths, geospatial, or defence-related sectors
- Prior customer-facing or pre-sales engineering experience
- Proven track record of long tenure and technical depth in previous roles
