I strongly second this recommendation, but it's not exactly "light on math". It's light on calculations, but you need to have had some contact at the very least with linear algebra and calculus. Now that I think about it, that probably makes it a perfect book for software engineers, who know the mathematical concepts from studying computer science, but have not much experience actually doing calculations, so typical QM textbooks may be off-putting for them.
