Help Scale a World-Class Software Engineering Team from 10 to 30+ Ready to take on a strategic leadership role and shape the future of a deep tech organisation?
Keen to grow and mentor an exceptional team working at the intersection of software, hardware and physics?
Our client, a pioneering company at the forefront of next-generation computing, is on the hunt for a Software Engineering Manager to lead the next phase of growth in their software function. This is a chance to step into a high-impact role where you’ll take a core team of ten talented engineers and scale it to 30 and beyond - building not just headcount, but capability, culture and cohesion.
You’ll be at the centre of building one of the most advanced software teams in the UK, responsible for:
Developing structure around onboarding, mentoring, performance management, and career growth to support a much larger function.
Leading the delivery of a complex, multi-layered software stack covering real-time control, compiler toolchains and application-level software.
Owning the long-term technical roadmap while improving ways of working across DevOps, release management and support.
This is ideal for someone who has already led a software team and is ready to go bigger, including:
Strong experience managing and growing software engineering teams at pace - ideally in high-tech or research-driven environments.
A people-first approach to leadership - you're passionate about coaching, career progression, and creating a brilliant team culture.
Good technical fluency with modern programming languages - Python or Rust are a bonus, but not essential.
