We have many years of experience delivering state-of-the-art solutions to household name companies.

    To support us with the successful delivery of new and exciting projects, we are looking for a talented Junior Software Engineer who can provide expertise in UI and UX.

    Our products are varied in scope and field. From simple machines processing a dedicated task, to complex customisable cells with many robots, production steps and integrated technologies ranging from cameras, lasers, waterjet cutters and even chainsaws. Our bespoke machinery can be very complex, however it’s vital that it remains easy to use and operate.
