Puppet is looking for software engineering interns to join us! In this role, you'll be an integral part of the team, doing the kind of work we all do while learning from experienced developers on the team. We'll personalise the workload for you, to make sure you learn and grow as much as you can.
You'll get to pair regularly with a team member on tasks and always be able to ask questions and receive advice, but you'll also get the chance to work on tasks independently when you're ready. You'll receive feedback on work and plenty of chances to grow and improve, all to get you ready for a career in software development.
As an intern at Puppet, you will:
- Have the opportunity to contribute to the core team projects.
- Learn and use new technologies while working on fun projects. Day to day, you will code in languages such as Golang, Ruby, React and other languages and tools.
- Have the opportunity to engage with the open-source community.
Criteria for invitation to interview:
- Undergraduate in one of the following degree courses; Computer Science, Computing Technologies, Software Engineering, Information and Communications Technology or Business Information Technology, and due to graduate in Summer 2022.
- Available to start work in September 2020.
- Have the right to work in the UK
- A minimum of 60% average across modules taken to date.
- Object Oriented programming experience may be an advantage.
- Scripting (programming in Ruby, Python, Perl, bash) experience may be an advantage.
- A link to your git profile to demonstrate software projects you have worked on
What valuable experience and skills will you bring to the table?
- Experience solving problems with programming and troubleshooting code.
- Experience using source code management tools.
- Familiarity with any programming language, and the ability to understand and discuss different implementation tradeoffs.
- General knowledge of algorithms, data structures, and programming paradigms will be helpful, but we don't expect you to be an expert.
- Skilled at collaborating with others and using their feedback to improve.
- Willing to try new things, adapt, and ask for help when needed.
- Capacity and drive to learn.
Please tailor your CV to demonstrate how you meet the above criteria. Closing date is 5 November, 2019.
