My client, a clean-tech company, is transforming how the UK manages energy efficiency, with 60,000+ devices already deployed and a fleet that's growing fast. We're looking for a Software Engineer to join their mission of improving carbon efficiency across industry - and the timing couldn't be better, with new government regulations creating massive demand for their solutions.

You'll be joining a close-knit engineering team of 10-11 people, working as an individual contributor on their analytics application that processes 10+ billion records to optimize heat network performance. This is a great role offering significant project ownership and technical autonomy in a fast-growing market.

We're Looking For:

  • 4+ years commercial software development experience

  • Vue.js framework experience (essential - React/Angular background considered but Vue.js strongly preferred)

  • Strong Python backend development skills

  • Database design and schema modeling experience with high-volume datasets

  • JavaScript proficiency

  • Project ownership experience - leading medium-sized projects or major components from concept to release

  • SaaS product development background preferred

    What's on offer:

  • Salary up to £70,000 depending on experience + great benefits including:

  • 25 days holiday + bank holidays

  • 5% pension contribution

  • £1500 annual training budget + 12 paid training days

  • Flexibility around hybrid working - typically 2-4 times per month in office. Can the work be done from home? Go for it, although there will be times when you'll be needed on-site for collaboration

  • Private health insurance

  • Quarterly company socials

  • Modern tech stack: Python, AWS, DynamoDB, microservices architecture

  • Exposure to cutting-edge data practices and machine learning concepts

    The Role:

    Working on the analytics platform, you'll be handling large-scale data processing and building features that directly impact heat network efficiency across the UK. With upcoming government regulations expected to drive significant client growth (from 40% to 60%+ uptake), you'll be scaling critical infrastructure that's making a real difference to carbon efficiency

How to Get a Better Robotics Job After a Lay-Off or Redundancy

Redundancy in the robotics industry can feel like a sudden halt, particularly in such a complex, fast-evolving field. But with robotics at the heart of innovation across manufacturing, healthcare, agriculture, logistics, and defence, the UK continues to offer excellent career opportunities. Whether you're a robotics software engineer, systems integrator, mechanical design expert, or autonomous systems researcher, this guide is here to help you reset, rebrand, and relaunch your career after redundancy.

Robotics Jobs Salary Calculator 2025: Work Out Your True Worth in Seconds

Why yesterday’s pay survey is already outdated for UK robotics professionals Ask a Robotics Software Engineer fine‑tuning SLAM algorithms, a Mechatronics Engineer chasing motor‑controller jitter at 3 a.m., or a Field Robotics Specialist testing autonomous tractors in Somerset: “Am I earning what I deserve?” The honest answer changes every quarter. Retail warehouses roll out 1,000 collaborative arms overnight; battery subsidies super‑charge autonomous delivery start‑ups; & the UK government pledges £200 million for industrial robot adoption. Each shock nudges salary bands. Any salary guide printed in 2024 reads like a dusty datasheet—ignorant of the NHS surgical‑robot procurement boom, the Midlands EV‑assembly cobot surge, or the drone‑in‑dock pilots blanketing Scottish offshore wind farms. To turn guesswork into evidence, RoboticsJobs.co.uk distilled a transparent, three‑factor formula. Feed in your discipline, region, & seniority; you’ll get a realistic 2025 salary benchmark—no stale averages, no fuzzy “competitive” labels. This article unpacks the formula, spotlights six forces pushing robotics pay skyward, & sets out five practical moves to boost your market value inside ninety days.

How to Present Robotics Solutions to Non-Technical Audiences: A Public Speaking Guide for Job Seekers

Robotics is changing the world—from smart factories and autonomous vehicles to healthcare assistants and drone deliveries. But no matter how advanced the system is, a robotics solution won’t be adopted unless it’s clearly understood by those who make decisions: business leaders, clients, investors, and end-users. That’s why employers in the UK robotics industry are now actively seeking candidates who can communicate clearly and confidently with non-technical audiences. Whether you’re a recent graduate, a mechanical engineer, a software specialist or an automation consultant, your ability to explain how your robots work—and why they matter—could be the difference between getting shortlisted and getting hired. This guide shows you how to structure your robotics presentation, design effective slides, use storytelling and analogies, and answer common stakeholder questions—so you can stand out in interviews and beyond.
