Graduate/Junior Software Engineer

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Graduate / Junior Software Engineer with a leading supplier of high-specification data acquisition, analysis, monitoring and storage systems. The company provides solutions and expertise for a range of industrial and engineering applications to a wide range of blue-chip clients in Europe and North America, particularly in the aero engine (more generally, gas turbine) sector.
The Graduate / Junior Software Engineer will work with the hardware and software teams to help develop further the innovative, bespoke software suite. The main responsibilities will entail developing and delivering quality, maintainable software within given (and sometimes challenging) time-scales.

You will have graduated with (or be forecast to graduate with) a good degree (minimum 2.2) in a Science or Engineering discipline:

• Mathematics
• Electronic Engineering
• Mechanical Engineering
• Physics
• Computer Science

New Graduate Candidates should be able to demonstrate some capability in object-oriented design and coding in C++/C/STL e.g. a programming module undertaken at university. Equally acceptable is self-taught coding/programming.

Junior Level Candidates should have at least one year’s working experience coding in C++/C/STL. Knowledge of C++ Builder would be an advantage but is not essential; experience within other development environments is acceptable.

Knowledge of writing multi-threaded and networked applications is desirable but not essential.
Familiarity with any of the following technical areas would be a further advantage:

• Digital signal processing
• Boost libraries
• SQL databases
• Real-time systems
• Graphical user interface design and implementation.

A working knowledge of either German or Mandarin would be of exceptional interest.
Please note that candidates invited to interview will be asked to sit a C++ technical test; please do be prepared for this. In addition, new graduates will be required to demonstrate their coding capability by providing examples of code written for an academic module or a project undertaken personally.

Candidates must be UK Nationals or Nationals of NATO member countries. Benefits include private health cover (subject to medical acceptance by the provider), a company bonus scheme and access to a pension scheme.
