I've partnered with an iconic brand with an unmistakably rich heritage.

Join a small engineering team modernising the software behind a range of high performance luxury British sports cars. You'll rebuild Legacy internal tools into modern Java based systems, reverse engineer existing code, and test your work directly on brand new sports cars!

What You'll Do:
Rebuild and modernise internal systems using Java, Java based Scripting, Spring Boot, Maven, and some React.
Reverse engineer existing tools to understand current behaviour and re implement them more cleanly.
Develop software that interacts with real vehicle systems across current models.
Take part in hands on vehicle testing to validate functionality.

Who You Are - Senior role:

Strong Java development experience.
Comfortable with hands on testing; automotive experience or mechanical understanding is a bonus.
Full stack capability (Java, Scripting, some React).
Experience with Spring Boot/Maven.
Able to support and mentor junior engineers.

Java Engineer (Mid/Junior):

Solid core Java skills.
Quick learner who can take ownership early.
Interest in how cars work (mechanically or digitally).
Some exposure to testing (unit, integration, hardware adjacent).
Any Scripting or full stack experience is a plus.

Why This Team?

You'll ship software that directly affects how real sports cars behave. It's technical, hands on, fast moving, and ideal for engineers who want to see their work come to life on the road.

We need people immediately so unfortunately cannot accept people with longer than a months notice. Salary can range between £45k - £70k, flexible work hours, healthcare, sports and fitness programmes, bike schemes, pension, health insurance and quick two-stage process!
