C++ Software Engineer – Warehouse Management Systems

We’re hiring a C++ Software Engineer to work on a large‑scale Warehouse Management / Control System used to run highly automated distribution centres across retail, logistics, and industrial environments.

This is a systems‑level role focused on software that controls real‑world warehouse operations in real time, rather than web or UI-driven applications.

What you’ll be working on

Development of C++ software for WMS / WES / WCS platforms
Real‑time control of automated warehouse environments
Integration with conveyors, robotics, sortation, and storage systems
Long‑term, production systems used in live operational sites
Linux‑based environments with strong engineering standards

Tech stack

C / C++
Java (supporting)
Linux / Unix
Shell scripting
Jira or similar tooling

What we’re looking for

Commercial experience with C++
Comfortable working on complex, integrated systems
Exposure to warehouse systems, automation, industrial software, or similar environments is a strong advantage

Location

UK‑based role
Occasional office presence in the Midlands / South Midlands, with a largely remote working model

If you’re interested in C++ development that sits close to hardware and automation, I’d be happy to share more details
