Software Engineer ipTEST

Company: ipTEST
Contract type: Permanent
Location: Surrey Research Park, Guildford

An exciting opportunity for an experienced Software Engineer to join the ipTEST UK team, contributing to the development of innovative, high‑technology solutions. Ideal for candidates with strong technical expertise who enjoy working in a collaborative, engineering‑led environment.

About ipTEST:

ipTEST is a growing company in an exciting high technology area at the forefront of new developments powering the green revolution.

We are a dedicated, engineering-based organisation with the skills to meet the demanding needs of our growing customer base of semiconductor device manufacturers around the world. We develop solutions for testing challenging new green power technologies such as GaN and SiC, as well as for the latest generation of MOSFETs, IGBT’s, diodes, SCR’s and bipolars.

ipTEST is headquartered in the UK, with applications and support facilities in Malaysia and Japan. We are part of the Microtest Group and work closely with the other Microtest companies in Italy, Germany, The Netherlands and USA.

We have a track record of investing in our people and work hard to ensure that all our staff are well informed, well trained and well-motivated to be completely responsive to our customer needs.

Product development is core to our existence, and we have introduced a significant new product nearly every year since our origins in the early 1980’s. Our Mostrak test platform has been through constant cycles of renewal, whilst always retaining compatibility. We operate seamlessly between our Engineering, Manufacture and Test, Customer Support and Technical Sales groups. Our success also lies in investing in and working closely with our external manufacturing base to ensure we are as responsive and nimble as possible whilst drawing on the experience and production efficiency of our family of dedicated CEM partners and OEM manufacturers. Above all, ipTEST is responsive.

About the role:

ipTEST builds the software behind semiconductor test equipment, and our software is central to everything we ship.

Our main product is controlled by our native desktop application, a mature, real-time software solution with a substantial customer base. We’re actively expanding our portfolio with new products, and planning large scale modernisation of our existing codebase, raising the bar on quality and user experience, while introducing new features.

Working day-to-day alongside our Senior Developer and Architect, we’re looking for a software engineer who wants to get stuck in. Someone who is comfortable with the challenge of working with an established codebase, is excited by modernisation, who cares about doing things properly and wants to be part of shaping where a product goes next.

The role is based in Guildford. Mostly on-site, but we’re relaxed about a couple of days from home once you’re up and running.

If that sounds like the kind of role you’ve been looking for, we’d love to talk.

What’s in it for you:

This is a full-time position with competitive salary and excellent benefits including non-contributary pension and optional medical insurance.

• Collaboration within an international team with long interdisciplinary expertise.
• A large and widely differentiated customer base
• Permanent employment in a growing company
• Long term career opportunities
