Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF), radar, or signal processing concepts.
Experience in defence, aerospace, or other safety-critical technical domains.
Familiarity with real-time or high-throughput data systems.
Skills
Strong Python and JavaScript development skills; hands-on experience with Flask and React.
Familiarity with REST API design and real-time data handling (e.g. WebSockets, streaming pipelines).
Experience with multiprocessing and multithreading for concurrent, real-time workloads.
Familiarity with SQL and relational database systems.
Experience with Git-based version control workflows and CI/CD pipelines.
Experience with Docker and containerised deployment workflows.
Solid debugging and problem-solving skills with a track record of delivering reliable, maintainable software.
Familiarity with system design principles and the ability to evaluate trade-offs across technical approaches.
Effective communicator who can translate technical concepts for both technical peers and non-technical stakeholders.
Demonstrated ability to estimate time and effort for tasks and deliver against those estimates.
Track record of delivering to schedule, with sound judgement about how to prioritise tasking under competing demands.
