Senior Development Engineer

A Senior Development Engineer to Develop our Products for a New Market

Cyan Forensics is a start-up helping police investigators find evidence faster – replacing software that takes hours or days with software that gives results in minutes. By speeding up investigations into indecent images of children and terrorism, we are improving safety for all. We are in the process of rolling our technology out across UK policing through the Home Office, and we have early sales in Europe and a partnership to develop the US Market.

We now want to build on this reputation and success to move into the Online Harms market and are looking for a Senior Development Engineer to lead the development of new ways to deploy our technology for social media and cloud platforms.

We are looking for someone who will enjoy helping us move into this exciting new area, who has the experience to drive the development and has the motivation to become an industry expert recognised both internally and externally.

We are looking for someone who is excited by the opportunity to grow with the company and shares our values around doing the right thing for the customer.

Current development is mostly in C#, although we expect this to shift with our growth into this new market. Development is managed using an agile process adapted to deliver on our customers priorities – forensic integrity, high performance, and positive user experience
