Technology Solutions is AtkinsRéalis’ largest team of Software Engineers who develop bespoke software solutions for clients. We design, develop, and maintain software for clients in government, infrastructure and industry. We are software specialists as well as consultants – as consultants we build relationships with our clients to help understand their requirements, but we spend most of our time writing code and building solutions to solve their problems!

Our solutions include:

  • Integrated Hardware and Software Solutions
  • Business Information Systems
  • Mission Critical Software
  • Geospatial Solutions and Data Visualisation Platforms
  • Algorithm Development and Decision Support Tools

Technology Solutions Engineers often collaborate with colleagues from across the AtkinsRéalis business to deliver a software solution in a specialised industry that is more than the sum of our parts. For example, Technology Solutions Software Engineers worked with Security Experts, Passenger Experience Specialists and experienced Aviation Project Managers to develop a Biometric Passenger Identification solution at Heathrow.

Most of our software solutions are web or desktop applications created using the Microsoft Stack (C# .NET, Visual Studio, Azure, DevOps) though sometimes with Postgres databases rather than MSSQL. We’re growing our capability in Java and real-time embedded software development (C/C++). We also use Python, C++, a wide variety of JavaScript frameworks and are flexible about picking up new languages and technologies when needed.
