The Work Environment
Development on Macs and Ubuntu: We're pragmatic so realise we also have to work with Windows occasionally.
Small team: Embracing modern development practices. New ideas are always encouraged and we'll try most things, but we always settle on what works for us.
Diverse team: Our team is very multicultural including a mix of experienced engineers, successful sales and project managers balanced with the brightest young graduates.
Passionate: We are passionate and enjoy what we do!
Integration and interfacing
Our core activity is safety and security applications. We're bringing the latest web technologies to real-world hardware i.e. we don't work in the cloud. We interface with very diverse equipment: radar, sonar, thermal imaging, drones, software-defined radios and more. Our UI runs on touchscreen displays, tablets, phones, smart-glasses...
Challenges
If you are looking for an easy job, this isn't it. We operate in mission critical environments. Our systems can operate at sea and high security areas with limited connectivity to the data center. So, all your assumptions about cloud development techniques and operating environments will be constantly challenged. Timelines are strict, and creativity is often required to solve unexpected technical issues. It can be extremely diverse, interesting, and rewarding if you are up to the challenge!
