I think you can just explain what you're looking for in your CV.  Then
add a couple of keywords such as "quality", "coding standards" and
"software engineering".

If you evolve to that point (I haven't yet but am planning to), you
can replace these keywords with "formal methods", "proof of
correctness", "SPARK".

It has worked for me at least.
