ABOUT US Iridium is an established software company founded in 2002, delivering bespoke software systems for long-term enterprise clients in the UK. We design, build, host, and support custom web, mobile, and desktop platforms that underpin clients’ day-to-day operations, rather than one-off or short-term projects. Our work is centred on sustained client relationships and ongoing platforms, which allows teams to take real ownership of systems over time and develop a deep understanding of the domains they operate in. Delivery typically spans the full lifecycle, from design and implementation through to long-term support and evolution. Based in Exeter, we operate as a small, experienced team with a flat and pragmatic structure. This provides direct access to decision-makers, clear accountability, and the ability to influence both delivery and process. Our focus is on producing high-quality, maintainable solutions and delivering them reliably, on time, and on budget.
