Senior Software Developer - Industrial Automation Environment

We are seeking a Senior Software Developer to play a key role in designing, building and maintaining core software applications that support advanced automated materials handling, warehouse automation and robotics-led production environments.

This is a software-led position, focused on developing production-grade applications, platforms and user interfaces. While the software operates within an industrial setting, the primary responsibility is software engineering - not hardware configuration or PLC programming.

You will join a team responsible for modernising an existing technology stack, contributing to the transition from Python/Django to C#/.NET and Blazor. This role offers ownership across application design, architecture, and long-term maintainability, alongside close collaboration with engineering teams to ensure software aligns with real-world systems.

Key Responsibilities

Design, develop and maintain core software applications used in automation and production environments
Lead hands-on development in C#/.NET, contributing to system migration and platform evolution
Build and enhance operator-facing applications, dashboards and visualisation tools displaying real-time system data
Own application logic, workflows and behaviour within production systems
Contribute to overall software architecture, technical standards and development best practices
Implement and maintain version control and CI/CD pipelines using GitHub
Ensure applications are reliable, maintainable and resilient, with a strong emphasis on fault handling and diagnostics
Collaborate with controls, robotics and mechanical engineers to ensure seamless integration with physical systems
Support testing, commissioning and deployment of software releases
Mentor junior developers and contribute to technical decision-making within the team

Required Skills & Experience

Software Development

Strong commercial experience with C# and .NET
Experience building user interfaces and application logic using Blazor or similar frameworks
Background in Python, ideally within Django environments (particularly for legacy systems or migrations)
Hands-on experience with GitHub, including branching strategies, pull requests and CI/CD workflows
Strong understanding of clean code principles, maintainability and scalable software design

Industrial / Operational Environments

Experience developing software for industrial, manufacturing, automation, logistics or IoT environments
Understanding of how software interacts with PLC-controlled or machine-driven systems (no PLC programming required)
Comfortable working in environments where uptime, reliability and performance are critical

Systems & Architecture

Experience designing and maintaining long-running, production-grade systems
Ability to build fault-tolerant applications interacting with external systems and data sources
Strong debugging, troubleshooting and problem-solving capability

What This Role Offers

The opportunity to work on real-world, high-impact systems combining software, robotics and automation
Ownership of critical applications that directly influence operational performance
Involvement in a large-scale technology modernisation programme
A collaborative, multidisciplinary environment with exposure to cutting-edge automation technologies
Influence over technical direction, standards and best practices

Role Scope

This role is:

A hands-on senior software development position
Focused on building robust, scalable applications
Product and platform oriented
Embedded within a real-world automation environmentThis role is not:

A PLC programming position
A controls engineering or systems integration-only role
A pure web or SaaS-focused development job
