Meet our people

Jada - Software developer

I work in a protective monitoring team, monitoring data streams. I look at Jira tickets, talk to customers about bugs found and I work with frontend design/prototyping tools. Most of what I do needs to be secret, so I can’t fully explain how exciting and rewarding my job actually is, but it really is!

Mae - Business relationship manager

I started in project management at HMGCC and now I work on building trust and engagement with industry and academia, supporting initiatives to pull through new technology and ideas to HMGCC. I love meeting and collaborating with people and doing my bit for our mission in a corporate role.

Lara - PCB engineer

I work in a small team but as R&D lead I look after and solve the problems and quirky things that occur. I look into new materials, technology, email scientists from around the world, travel to meet industry experts and play with chemistry when I get back.

Dan - Software engineer

I discovered HMGCC via the CyberFirst summer internship. After university I joined as a software engineer. I've had so many opportunities including overseas training and conferences. One thing that brings me to work every day is hearing about the impact of the work I have directly contributed to.

Manufacturing

Our manufacturing plant boasts more than 50 disciplines from PCB manufacture and testing to 3D printing, plastics expertise, paint skills, laser cutting, wiring and assembly.

Project and programme management

To deliver engineering breakthroughs, project and programme management are integral. Your knowledge of planning, monitoring and delivery will put you at the heart of the innovation process.

Science

A spectrum of scientific subject specialisms play an important role at HMGCC, not least areas of work such as physics and forensics.

Software engineering

The scope of our work is broad. We produce projects, from concept to solution, creating what is needed for national security.

Systems engineering
