Job Description

Due to the increasing demands to support both existing and forthcoming projects, Ultra are looking for talented and experienced software engineers to come into our DevOps team to help support the talented engineers who are developing the next generation of Sonar Systems for our ASW product line.

Ultra prides itself on world class engineering, delivering agile solutions to a wide range of customers across the world. With sites in the UK, Canada, and Australia the opportunities for the right candidates are extremely exciting.

Ultra is currently on a journey to improve the experience for its extremely capable development teams by adopting more Agile methods with DevOps playing an increasingly important role as we scale up the level of Continuous Integration and Automation in our delivery pipelines.

As a result, we can provide the opportunity to work with some extremely bright and talented people, embedding the skills of mathematicians and physicists into signal processing and artificial intelligence that operates at the cutting edge of the defence industry.

In this role you will be working with a team of 50+ software developers designing, implementing, and testing solutions for sonar systems that will be delivered to a wide variety of different Navy's from across the world.

Consequently, we have an immediate and ongoing requirement for passionate Software Engineers with strong software development skills and equally strong DevOps skills. The ideal candidate will be a software engineer who both understands what a developer requires (and could in theory join the development team from time to time to write code). But also, one who also understands and has a passion for building, maintaining, and streamlining the continuous development and integration pipelines which support them.

You will be working with a mixture of technologies and software languages, based around a virtualised development environment and as such there is a wide range of skills that are applicable to this role. It is not expected that one person will hold all these skills, but it is expected that the DevOps team will have sufficient breadth and depth to cover all, and you will be key to achieving this.

  • Accountable for cost and schedule of assigned work.
Skills, Qualification and Experience
  • Experience in C++ or Java Development
  • Knowledge of the full software development lifecycle
  • Experience developing build pipelines in Conan and or Gradle
  • Experience of VMware ESXi would be an advantage.
  • Experience of Linux Red Hat application development and configuration would be an advantage.
  • Experience with a variety of Software Configuration Tools including SVN and GIT would be an advantage.
  • Knowledge of Sonar would be an advantage.
  • Degree in engineering, computer science or related subject
