We’re hiring at Cirrus Software Solutions! Cirrus is a software and services company focused on UK Government Cloud solutions.

Software Engineer

We’re looking for a number of talented Software Engineers. The ideal candidates will be responsible for developing high-quality code. They should have a good working knowledge of the software development lifecycle, excellent communication skills and ability to liaise with customers with a broad range of technical knowledge. The skills listed are desirable and we wouldn’t expect any candidate to have all of them.

Why be a Software Engineer with Cirrus Software Solutions?

Cirrus Software Solutions is a people-first software development company that puts our customers and teams first. We mainly work on behalf of the UK government to provide high-quality software products and services. We believe in working closely with our customers and listening to their needs. We also believe in empowering our teams to be self-organising and work effectively to produce the best results for our customers.

How is Cirrus Software Solutions different?

We'll invest in you, and alongside five days of training every year, we'll also make sure your AWS/Azure certifications are kept up to date. You don't have AWS or Azure certification yet? We'll make sure you have the minimum certification to enable you to do your job effectively over and above your standard training allowance when you join the company.

Ask yourself the following questions about your current role:

Do you currently work for a company where sales targets are more important than the work you produce?
Is your only pathway to promotion by going into management when you want to remain technical and be a subject matter expert?
Does it feel like your efforts are going to management bonuses over customer satisfaction?
Are you unempowered in your current role to make decisions?
Does it feel like an uphill struggle to get recognition for your efforts?
Do you want to help shape the future of a new company?
Do you work for a large organisation whose overall goals aren't clear, or do you find it difficult to help them achieve them?

If the answer is 'yes' to any of the above, try a different company and join Cirrus Software Solutions.
