Software Engineer Rust / Instrumentation Location: Newbury, Berkshire (Hybrid) Type: Permanent Salary: £45,000 £60,000 A small engineering company developing bespoke instrumentation, automation and data acquisition systems is looking to hire a Software Systems Engineer to support continued growth. This is a hands-on role working on real-world engineering problems across industrial, scientific and test environments. Projects range from custom data acquisition platforms and industrial monitoring systems through to detector readout systems and specialised measurement equipment. The company is transitioning further into product development, with Rust becoming a core part of the software stack. You would be joining a very small technical team, working closely with the founder on software architecture, system design and customer-facing engineering projects. This role would suit somebody who enjoys solving unusual technical problems rather than working on highly standardised products. The business operates with a systems engineering mindset and values curiosity, practicality and adaptability over rigid specialisation. Typical involvements: Software Engineer - Rust Developing software for instrumentation and industrial measurement systems Building applications primarily in Rust, alongside some Python, TypeScript and LabVIEW where appropriate Working across the full engineering lifecycle from concept through deployment Integrating software with hardware, data acquisition devices and embedded Linux systems Supporting customer projects and occasionally visiting customer sites within the UK Helping improve engineering practices including testing, CI and tooling Skills / Knowledge Required: Software Engineer - Rust A degree in an engineering discipline coupled with 4-5 years of industry experience working within software programming Strong software engineering fundamentals but with a broad systems engineering approach (i.e. understanding the wider system, hardware, etc) Commercial experience with Rust preferred. However strong C/C++ experience with an interest in moving into Rust could be considered. Experience working close to hardware, instrumentation or real-world engineering systems Comfortable working independently within a small engineering business Familiarity with Git / GitLab, automated / unit testing and modern software engineering practices Experience of Linux based systems Beneficial skills: Some embedded Linux experience would be beneficial as would experience of FPGAs or PCBAs Experience with bespoke data acquisition and control systems or integrating hardware and software for unique engineering applications (e.g., test cells, scientific instrumentation, industrial adaptation of lab equipment, etc) There s a broad mix of work spanning industrial automation, scientific instrumentation and bespoke engineering systems, so an interest in understanding how physical systems work is important. This software engineer opening is commutable from Reading, Newbury Basingstoke, Swindon, Winchester, Oxford, Bracknell and London.
