Developing WPF applications for simulations for scientific industry This successful Cambridge company develop simulation software for specialist industry. With international reach, yet local offices and a family feel they would suit an experienced engineer skilled in C# software development including desktop UI. WPF or comparable technologies are ideally sought. You ll be someone able to take on a senior hands-on development position within their UI team. Colleagues are likewise C# developers, a small team working closely with mathematical software engineers. They in turn develop the simulation side of the software suite, which is also C#. You will have: Extensive commercial-grade software development experience in C# with .NET (whether .NET 6-9, Framework or Core). Held senior developer responsibilities before, including taking a view on software engineering approaches, leading projects where required, and mentoring junior colleagues. Ideally, experience with WPF, XAML and related application architecture and event routing. Otherwise, desktop UI via Prism or with Windows Forms (or Qt, etc.), or equivalent UI development experience with web component UI such as React, Angular or similar will be considered. You ll likely be familiar with DI / IoC, MVC / MVP / MVVM, and similar patterns for separation of concerns and reduced dependencies. Developed applications which allow a skilled user to interact with and manipulate complex technical content, rather than e.g. CRM or other database front ends. A good intuition about UI usability, considering users profiles and use cases. This is not a UX role, and the software is already favoured by users, yet intuition and experience will help ensure that future developments are similarly well received. The ability to get up to speed quickly, and work independently as well as collaborate with colleagues. This is a friendly and close-knit company which can offer a long term career opportunity.
