Job Description
Ensoft Software Engineer - (Micro Intern)
Ensoft Software Engineering Micro-Intern - United Kingdom
1 week placement in Spring or Summer 2025: Interviews to be held closer to the time.
What You’ll Do:
Our aim is to provide you with a software development project that lets you experience what it is like to work as part of the Ensoft engineering team, using industry-leading development practices. Your project will relate to the work that our engineering teams do and be a self-contained piece of work that can be completed across a week-long placement.
You will be working at our office in Harpenden, located close to the station and with a very fast connection into London. Harpenden is an attractive town, which, thanks to its excellent commute, has a thriving center with shops, bars, and restaurants.
Who You'll Work With:
You’ll be working alongside incredibly talented individuals, like yourself, with a shared enthusiasm for software development. The Cisco Ensoft team is entirely made up of people recruited as young, exceptional graduates from a variety of universities who have developed into all the roles that make up our team today - from the management team to the industry-leading technical experts.
We have a really friendly culture. It is a sign of how well people get on that employees arrange so many activities together in their spare time. This is on top of the many company-funded social events arranged by our social team.
Who You Are and What You Need To Be Eligible:
- You must have demonstrated a strong interest and aptitude for computing.
- In particular, we need you to have enough programming experience to be able to quickly become productive on a software project, in order that we can provide a rewarding placement.
- The barrier to entry is high, so you need a proven academic capability. For example, you will be taking or have completed a numerate degree at one of the UK's leading Universities. As a guide, we would normally expect all A/A* grades at A-level or equivalent.
- You need to be able to live and work in the UK with no additional sponsorship from Cisco.
- Finally, you must be sociable. Our software development process is collaborative, so you should enjoy working closely with the other people in your team.
