At Motorola Solutions, we believe that everything starts with our people. We’re a global close-knit community, united by the relentless pursuit to help keep people safer everywhere. We build and connect technologies to help protect people, property and places. Our solutions foster the collaboration that’s critical for safer communities, safer schools, safer hospitals, safer businesses, and ultimately, safer nations. Connect with a career that matters, and help us build a safer future.

The Motorola Solutions 'International Mobile Applications’ organisation is responsible for creating the mission critical software solutions which serve emergency first responders across public safety agencies worldwide. The solutions created by this organisation are used by hundreds of thousands of police officers, firefighters and paramedics every day and aim to improve the effectiveness of our emergency services response.

The various applications that we build for first responders are deployed across a wide range of different device types and are sophisticated solutions comprising client applications, server applications, web applications and databases.

Within the organisation, we are organised into different product groups focusing on different sectors and territories across the world. This specific role is focused on our solution which serves UK Police agencies.

Our ‘Pronto’ team is the largest supplier of mobile police apps in the UK, providing software to half of the UK’s 45 police forces - used by around 70,000 police officers on a daily basis. Based in the West End of Glasgow, we currently have around 80 employees. Our team started as Kelvin Connect in 2002, a spin-out company from the University of Glasgow. Now, as part of Motorola Solutions, we continue to expand with future opportunities in the UK and beyond.

This role will be responsible for leading a team of approximately 8 software engineers, who range from senior to junior level. We are looking for someone who is a very strong software engineer, who may have some previous experience of leading small, agile software engineering teams.

As a Software Engineering Manager, you won’t just be staring at code; you’ll be building the team that writes it. You are responsible for the growth, productivity, and happiness of your engineers. Your goal is to bridge the gap between business objectives and technical execution, ensuring we ship high-quality products while maintaining a healthy, sustainable engineering culture.
