Graduate and experienced candidates all welcome to apply!
As an LK Software Engineer you will be joining an eclectic, agile team that works well together in a professional but informal environment. This team is responsible for developing, testing and debugging our CMM software solutions and rolling out newly developed software products at key customer sites.
You will work on a range of products including our flagship metrology solution, a comprehensive Windows desktop application for programming measurements on and driving CMMs, performing complex evaluations, and providing graphical reports.
Development is very varied and will encompass many aspects of software engineering; GUI development, 3D CAD manipulation/interaction, simulation, path planning, databases, generating and parsing a domain specific language, algorithmic and mathematical problem solving, hardware control and interaction, and much more.
There will be opportunities for personal growth within an open team that are very willing to share and help each other, regular in-house training sessions, dedicated R&D time, and a willingness for people to lead and drive project developments.
Your main duties will include:
* Designing, developing and testing our software products
* Participating in the full development project lifecycle, from specification, to testing and delivery
* Ensuring that projects are delivered on time and to specification
* Supporting the rollout, testing, and debugging of these products at key customer sites, mainly in the UK but occasionally overseas
Location:
Our Software Engineers spend their time working both at home and in our offices based in Castle Donington (up to 3 days per week at home, subject to review depending on business need). However, you will be expected to attend the office at any time, where workload requires it or for attendance at meetings, etc.
Working for LK Metrology:
At LK, we employ people who will do their best to put the needs of the company first when they are at work, treating our company as though it is their own. With every employee sharing this mindset, we will succeed, and we can then share our success with our employees. With this in mind, whilst your skills, knowledge and experience are all important, we believe that your personality and attitude are just as important.
In return for your hard work, we will always try our best to offer you a flexible, fun and enjoyable working environment. We will also offer you:
* 6% company pension contribution
* 25 days holiday + bank holidays + opportunity to purchase additional 5 days each year + additional service days
* Flexible start and finish times and hybrid working
* Employee discounts across most major retailers including retail, leisure and hospitality
* Summer and Christmas social events
* Free barista style coffee in the office
About you:
Our ideal applicant for the position of Software Engineer will be able to demonstrate the following as part of their application and interview process:
* A degree in Computer Science (preferred), Mathematics or Physics
* Knowledge/experience of object-oriented design
* Practical knowledge of at least one modern object-oriented programming language, preferably C++
* Knowledge/experience of 3D vector/coordinate geometry
* Knowledge/experience of software engineering processes and tools such as Scrum, Agile, revision control, Visual Studio
A knowledge of metrology would be advantageous but not essential.
If you meet the above criteria, we would really like to hear from you.
