My client is a true leader in its field. They have been established since the 1970's and they provide automated analysis and testing tools for software applications on which people's lives depend. They have a client base which spans a range of sectors including aerospace, defence, nuclear, medical and automotive sectors. Their clients use the firm's software to make sure that their systems are safe and compliant.
Do you have an interest in supporting commercial software tools and embedded software solutions?
You will initially be employed as a graduate in their Software Engineering team, learning all about the client's software and its functionality and how their clients use it. After you have successfully completed this training you will be working as a Software Field Engineer. This is a very client facing role whereby you will be working with the company's clients and bridging the gap between the coders and the Sales team, working on client site giving product demonstrations, providing end user feedback to the development teams, and working with the Sales team to identify ways to grow the business.
Typical on-site tasks could include:
- Applying best principals in the software development lifecycle
- Complying with coding standards (industry and user-defined)
- Performing coverage analysis on all code down to the target level
- Automated unit and system level testing
- Execution requirements-based testing
- Tracing all requirements and design artefacts throughout the development lifecycle
- Automatically producing certification and approval evidence
This role will be based out of the client's Southern Office (Newbury) with travel for training to the NW, so you should be happy with an element of travel with this role.
Requirements:
You should have or be expecting a 2.1 from a technical degree; this can be IT focussed or Engineering, Maths or Physics. You must have a good appreciation of OO programming (C, C++ or Java) and be a confident communicator.
The role will involve travel; a driving licence isn't a prerequisite for the role but you will be expected to learn to drive within a reasonable time frame.
If you speak any other European languages it would be an added bonus.
