Developing C# .NET software for agritech applications
This establishing company develop mobile hardware products that are used for agritech applications. Their innovative approach to problem-solving provides autonomous solutions that enable users a cost-effective, robust way to mitigate seasonal changes.
Joining a core team, as their newest Senior Software Engineer, you’ll work alongside software, electronics and mechanical engineers. You’ll spend your time writing code as well as observing operationsi in test conditions in a field. You’ll take an interest in tinkering and coming up with multidisciplinary ideas that can improve the technology. Your interests may lie in software architecture or code quality, but your overall approach will be working and contributing to complex and sophisticated innovations.
Requirements:

  • Strong track record of achievement through demonstrable software engineering projects using C# and .NET. This would ideally include interaction with hardware and Cloud applications.
  • Experience using Python and Linux. Additional experience with Azure DevOps would be desirable.
  • Experience working in a tech start-up or scale-up.
  • Any exposure to robotics or complex electro-mechanical instrumentation would be beneficial.
  • Excellent communication skills.
    Due to the nature of projects, you would be expected to be onsite although some hybrid working is possible. Interested applicants should be able to demonstrate a time where they took an out-of-the-box approach to working.
    Whilst this is not a lead role, as a senior engineer, you would be expected to take a lead position on projects on occasion and even mentor junior engineers working on your projects.
    Interested candidates must have full rights to work in the UK. Applicants with restricted time-limited visas will not be considered.
    Due to semi-rural location of their offices (just outside of Cambridge), this may not be a suitable role for those relying on public transport.

Robotics Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK robotics hiring has shifted from toolbox checklists to capability‑driven evaluation that emphasises deployed systems, safety, reliability and total cost of ownership. Employers want proof you can ship and sustain robots in production—industrial arms & cobots, AMRs/AGVs, field robots, surgical/med‑tech, warehouse automation, inspection & maintenance. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews and how to prepare—especially for robotics software engineers (ROS/ROS 2), perception/vision engineers, controls & motion planners, mechatronics & embedded, safety & compliance, test/V&V, DevOps/SRE for fleets, and robotics product managers. Who this is for: Robotics software/perception/controls engineers, mechatronics & embedded, simulation & test, DevOps/SRE for robotics fleets, HRI/UX, safety/compliance, field/commissioning engineers, and product/technical programme managers in the UK.

Why Robotics Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Robotics used to be the domain of mechanical, electrical and software engineers. In the UK today, robotics is more than motors and control loops — it’s about perception, interaction, trust, regulation and integration into human environments. That evolution means robotics careers are becoming more multidisciplinary. Modern robots interact with people, collect data, operate under constraints, and often assist in safety-critical environments (healthcare, manufacturing, transport). So engineers now collaborate closely with legal, ethical, psychological, linguistic and design experts. In this article, we explore why UK robotics careers are evolving into multidisciplinary roles, how law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design intersect with robotics, and how job-seekers and employers can adapt to this shift.

Robotics Team Structures Explained: Who Does What in a Modern Robotics Department

Robotics is transforming manufacturing, healthcare, logistics, agriculture, entertainment and more. In the UK, advances in robotics span autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), robotic arms, surgical robotics, drone systems, human-robot interaction, and collaborative robots (cobots). Building effective robotics systems requires not only strong hardware and software, but also finely coordinated teams with clear roles from research through deployment and maintenance. If you’re a candidate applying for robotics roles or an employer hiring through RoboticsJobs.co.uk, this guide will help you understand who does what in a mature robotics department, how the lifecycle of a robotics product works, what skills and qualifications UK employers typically expect, what salaries look like, common challenges, and best practices for structuring teams that deliver.
