Vacancy Reference: 187194
Salary: Grade 7, £41,064 - £46,049 per annum
As a Research Software Engineer at the Urban Big Data Centre (UBDC), University of Glasgow, you will play a key role in building robust, scalable software systems that unlock the potential of urban data for research and public impact. You’ll design and develop production-ready applications and intuitive user interfaces that make complex datasets accessible, interactive, and actionable for researchers, policymakers, and the wider public.
You will lead the development and maintenance of data-driven platforms, including databases, APIs, data pipelines, and authentication services, while ensuring seamless integration with dynamic front-end environments. Applying user-centred design principles, you will create tools and interfaces that are not only technically sound but also tailored to the needs and workflows of diverse users—ensuring usability, accessibility, and engagement across stakeholder groups.
This is a collaborative role where you’ll work closely with interdisciplinary teams of researchers, data scientists, and external partners across several projects. You’ll be part of a mission-driven environment that values innovation, technical excellence, and real-world impact, helping shape the future of cities through data. We’re looking for someone who thrives in a fast-paced research setting, brings strong software engineering skills, and is excited to contribute to meaningful societal change through thoughtful, user-focused software development.
This post is full time (35 hours per week) and is available for 3 years in the first instance. Relocation assistance will be provided where appropriate.
