High Integrity Software Engineer

Imagine building the computer brains for things where mistakes could be really, really serious like an aeroplane autopilot, a medical device that helps someone breathe, or the control system for a nuclear power plant. That's what a High Integrity Software Engineer does! Your job is to design, write, and test software that absolutely has to work perfectly, every single time, without any errors. It's not just about making the software do what it's supposed to, but making sure it's super reliable and safe, even if unexpected things happen. This means following very strict rules and using special techniques to prove the software is correct and can be trusted. You'll spend a lot of time thinking about all the ways something could go wrong and building in safeguards to prevent it. This often involves detailed planning, coding in specific programming languages, and rigorous testing. You might work on different parts of a big project, like the software for a self-driving car's emergency braking system or the controls for a satellite. It's a challenging but very rewarding career because you're creating technology that truly makes a difference to safety and critical operations, and it requires a keen eye for detail and a real passion for problem-solving.
