Full Job Description
We’re looking for an IT Software Development Administrator to join our team in the Bristol Design & Product Development (D&PD) office, part of the Ensera Group. Ensera has facilities in Europe, the USA, and Asia, as well as Design & Development hubs in Bristol, UK (where you’ll be based), and New Jersey and Colorado in the USA.

You’ll take ownership of the development toolset and environments, ensuring they are secure, efficient, and fit for purpose, while also contributing to wider group IT projects as needed.

You communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical colleagues and are confident explaining systems, processes, and decisions when needed, including during audits or reviews.

Essential skills and experience Experience in one or more of the following: · Software development (commercial or personal projects), or IT support within a software or engineering environment · Working knowledge of the softwa
