About us

At Cambridge Consultants, we help our clients design and develop ground-breaking innovative technologies.  For big-name brands and cutting-edge start-ups alike, our work regularly involves creating AI-enabled, connected systems in which digital security and privacy are essential considerations, and for which there are usually no off-the-shelf solutions.  

Introduction

Variety and the need for agility invigorates life here at Cambridge Consultants. New days bring fresh challenges as we collaborate to solve pressing global problems and help shape the future of smart homes, connected therapeutic devices, wireless robot networks and much more. 

If you enjoy taking ownership of your work but also value collaboration with supportive and passionate colleagues, our Software Engineer role will suit you well!  You’ll be surrounded by respected leaders in the very latest technologies as you help evolve our software development for distributed cloud-based systems and rich UIs. 

Your role

As a software engineer, you will work on a broad variety of projects. For some projects, the software will be the entire project; for others, it will be one component of a broader ecosystem involving software and hardware developed at Cambridge Consultants or by our clients. We are looking for adaptable individuals who thrive on challenges and enjoy learning on the job.

You’ll share your days with talented teams of software engineers, UX and service designers, mathematicians, test engineers and DevOps specialists. Your primary focus will be delivering creative, impactful solutions for ambitious, world-renowned clients who are committed to making a difference in people’s lives.

Often you’ll be developing systems that haven’t been seen before and where the specification can at first be unclear. Working with our team you’ll be able to cut through the fog and deliver solutions for our clients. 

We have a team ‘share-what-you-learn’ ethic so we can plan, grow and succeed together. You’ll play an active role in helping to grow our team and our capability. There is no single technology stack, as we will use whatever tool best fits each project including generative AI, but you can expect to encounter AWS, Azure and Google Cloud; Typescript, Go, Java, C#, Python; ElasticSearch, Terraform and Gitlab CI. 

What you’ll be doing

• Work with our team to deliver top-notch digital services that help our clients achieve their goals 
• Design and build software for scalable, secure and observable cloud deployments 
• Keep learning and be vocal about the latest trends in technology and how they might be used to solve real-world problems fo

What you can bring to the team 

• You are (or will soon be) a university graduate, studying for any STEM degree and with good academic results. 
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with peers and clients to understand their challenges and present thoughtful solutions.
• A genuine interest in learning more about technology.
• Practical experience using cloud technologies, or a keen interest in the field.
• Demonstrable programming experience.

What we can do for you 

• Opportunity to work on a variety of projects across multiple industries to keep your work exciting and diverse.
• A tailored mentoring and training package designed to help you grow in your career.
• The freedom to choose the right tools and processes for your projects.
