Job Description

About the team

We’re a small and friendly software development team working across desktop and web technologies, using C#, React and WPF. We build real products used by real customers — and we want to give students the chance to experience what software development is like in a supportive, hands-on environment.

If you’re studying Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related subject and want to gain practical experience, this placement will give you the opportunity to build your confidence, strengthen your skills, and contribute to genuine software projects.

What You’ll Be Doing

As a Summer Placement Software Engineer, you’ll work alongside experienced developers who will support you throughout your time with us. You’ll be involved in tasks that matter, with the freedom to learn, experiment, and grow.

During the placement, you’ll have the chance to:

  * Work with C# and C++ to develop core backend features and high‑performance application logic

  * Build user‑facing features in React and C#

  * Take part in all stages of the software development lifecycle

  * Solve real problems and see your contributions make an impact

We don’t expect you to be an expert. We’re looking for enthusiasm, curiosity, and a willingness to give things a go.

Who We’re Looking For

Essential:

  * Currently studying Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field

  * Some experience with programming (in any language)

  * A genuine interest in software development

  * Eagerness to learn new technologies and ask questions

  * Good problem‑solving skills and attention to detail

Nice to Have (not required):

  * Exposure to C++, C#, WPF, or React

  * Familiarity with Git

  * Understanding of OOP concepts

What You’ll Get From Us

  * Hands‑on, practical experience you can demonstrate on your CV

  * Mentoring from supportive and approachable engineers

  * Experience across our entire tech stack

  * A friendly environment where your ideas are encouraged

  * A chance to discover what you enjoy most in software development

  * The possibility of progressing into a permanent full‑time graduate role
