We’re a small, highly technical team building our own hardware + software platform. We’re looking for someone tech-heavy and hands-on to help with:
Running our in-house system in the field
Prototyping and testing new setups
This will suit a current Computer Science (BSc/MSc) student or a recent graduate who loves Linux, hardware, and experimenting with new tech. Set up and operate our custom technical kit in the field (training provided).
Help with basic prototyping : trying new hardware arrangements, testing different scripts, and reporting back.
Capture issues, edge cases and ideas, and share them with the engineering team.
Assist with hardware setup at HQ (devices, small form-factor PCs, single-board computers, cabling, etc.).
Travel from our Wapping HQ to different sites as needed – sometimes early starts, sometimes longer days (6–12 hours).
There is strong potential to grow this into more engineering, data, or product work as we scale and as you prove yourself.
Confident using Linux (terminal, SSH, basic system commands, logs).
Good general understanding of computers, networking concepts and system setup.
Comfortable installing software, working with command-line tools and following technical instructions.
Must be able to work on-site at HQ and travel with the team – no remote working.
Willing and able to work variable field days (6–12 hours) depending on workload.
Able to provide your own suitable weather kit / gear , including for warmer conditions and general outdoor work.
Full UK driving licence with no points (clean licence) – driving is part of the role sometimes.
Must already have the right to work in the UK – we cannot sponsor visas or support visa applications.
Currently studying or recently completed a Computer Science / Engineering degree.
Bonus experience (nice-to-have, not required):
Raspberry Pi or similar single-board computers
Basic scripting (Python, Bash, etc.)
Interview & Training
Must be available for in-person interview / training at Wapping HQ on 10th/11th/12th December
Immediate start after training for successful candidates
