Job description
The Role We are seeking an engineer who bridges the gap between science and software. You will be responsible for translating complex numerical models and scientific concepts into robust, professional-grade software. While you must have a strong technical and scientific understanding, your primary role is a software engineer who champions modern development practices, clean code, and reliable deployment pipelines. If you have 3 to 4 years of post-graduate experience and are passionate about building software that operates flawlessly in high-stakes security and nuclear environments, we want you on our team.
