Ncounter are supporting a specialist engineering organisation delivering highly secure software systems within the UK national security sector. As part of significant growth plans, they are looking to hire several Software Engineers ranging from mid-level through to senior level.

This opportunity will suit engineers who enjoy solving complex technical problems, working within highly secure environments, and contributing to software that supports genuinely important missions.

Candidates must either hold active eDV clearance or possess active DV clearance with the potential to progress to eDV. The ability and willingness to work onsite in the West of England four to five days per week is essential.

The environment offers the opportunity to work alongside experienced engineers within a collaborative and low-ego culture. Around 10% of working time is dedicated to training and development, including external courses, innovation projects, and personal development activities.

Package highlights include:

• 10% employer pension contribution

• Relocation support

• Genuine investment in technical development

• Flexible start and finish times

• Strong work-life balance
