Software Engineer

Software Engineer | Seiko Sports Technologies | Hybrid | International Travel

• Ever wanted to see your software used on the world stage?

At Seiko Sports Technologies, the software you develop helps power some of the world's biggest sporting events.

From international World Athletics Championships to World Gymnastics, Seiko's technology delivers the precision timing, measurement and live data trusted by athletes, officials, broadcasters and millions of fans around the world.

As Seiko continue to invest in the next generation of sports technology, we're exclusively partnering with them to find a Software Engineer to join their engineering team.

This is a rare opportunity to combine software engineering, international travel and live sport.

One week you'll be developing software from Seiko's engineering hub in Crewe.

The next, you could be supporting the technology behind a World Athletics event, where every millisecond matters.

The Opportunity:

• This is far more than a software development role.
• You'll be involved throughout the full lifecycle, from designing and building new applications through to deploying and supporting them at major international sporting events.
• Working alongside an experienced engineering team, you'll help shape the next generation of sports timing, data capture and cloud-based services, while seeing first-hand how your work performs under the pressure of live competition.
• If you're someone who enjoys solving real-world problems and wants ownership beyond simply writing code, you'll feel right at home here.

What You'll Be Doing: (No two weeks are the same)

You'll have the opportunity to:

• Develop software used at major international sporting events
• Improve and modernise existing timing and data systems
• Debug and support software in both development and live event environments
• Deploy and configure systems used in elite sporting competitions
• Build automation that improves deployment and operational efficiency
• Work closely with engineers, event specialists and international sporting organisations
• Travel across the world supporting live competitions and technology delivery

Tech Stack:

You’ll have a blend of experience working with:

• C#.NET
• Python
• Node.js
• SvelteKit
• GitHub Actions & CI/CD
• Azure
• SQL & MongoDB
• Docker & Containerisation

About You

• You're someone who enjoys solving technical challenges and wants to build software that performs when it matters most.

• You're naturally curious, enjoy learning new technologies and like taking ownership of your work from development through to deployment.

• Most importantly, you're excited by the idea of combining software engineering with international travel and the opportunity to work behind the scenes at some of the world's biggest sporting events.
