C++ Software Engineer

Posted 1 week ago by Line Up Aviation on CVLibrary

Job Description: The role of C++ Software Engineer involves joining a development team to build and integrate real-time test and data capture systems in a Linux environment. The position requires extensive experience in C++ development, focusing on multi-threaded applications and high-speed data protocols. The contract is for 12 months, with a pay rate of £67 per hour via an umbrella company. Security clearance is required for this UK Eyes only project.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design and develop real-time test and capture software on Linux systems using C++.
  • Integrate and interface with high-speed SFPDP cards across multi-channel data pipelines.
  • Architect and implement robust, scalable, and maintainable multi-threaded applications.
  • Define and implement data sequencing and synchronisation logic to support deterministic capture and replay.
  • Work with hardware teams to ensure seamless integration and timing alignment between software and capture cards.
  • Lead and contribute to system integration, verification, and testing at both component and system levels.
  • Conduct performance analysis, debugging, and optimisation of real-time systems.
  • Document architecture, interface definitions, and test procedures to support handover and formal test activities.

Skills Required:

  • Extensive experience in C++ development in a Linux environment.
  • Proficiency in C# for tooling, test interfaces, or Windows components as needed.
  • Proven experience working with real-time data systems, preferably involving SFPDP or other high-speed digital protocols.
  • Demonstrable skills in multi-threaded and concurrent programming.
  • Experience with low-level I/O, DMA, or driver-level interactions with PCIe cards or similar.
  • Familiarity with software sequencing frameworks or custom state machines for test execution.
  • Strong experience with integration, system test, and debugging complex interactions between software and hardware.
  • Strong understanding of software design principles, memory management, and performance optimisation.
  • Experience with version control systems (e.g., Git) and CI/CD pipelines.
