This is a 12-month placement opportunity, running from Summer 2027 to Summer 2028. To be eligible, candidates must be in their penultimate year of university, with an expected graduation date of Summer 2028.

• Contribute to the design, development, and enhancement of the next generation of enterprise-class software solutions supporting a global client base.
• Gain hands-on exposure to the entire software development lifecycle, from requirements gathering and system design to implementation, testing, deployment, and post-release support.
• Work across multiple product areas or engineering “lanes,” developing a strong appreciation for different architectures, technologies, and product complexities.
• Collaborate closely with experienced software engineers, product managers, quality engineers, and other cross-functional partners to deliver high-quality solutions.
• Leverage a modern engineering toolset, including cloud platforms, CI/CD pipelines, and a growing suite of Generative AI tools, enabling you to work faster, smarter, and more creatively.
• Operate within an Agile development environment, embracing best practices such as Test-Driven Development (TDD), Continuous Integration, and Continuous Delivery.
• Participate in code reviews, design discussions, sprint planning, and retrospectives to strengthen both your technical skills and your understanding of professional software engineering practices.
• Continuously grow your technical knowledge through The RRS Group’s engineering community, internal learning resources, mentorship, and knowledge-sharing sessions.

Qualifications

Our ideal candidate will bring:

• A strong academic background, having achieved or expecting to achieve a 2:1 or above in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a closely related discipline, with graduation no earlier than Summer 2029.
• Solid foundational coding skills in object-oriented programming languages such as Java, C#, or C++.
• A genuine passion for software engineering and technology, demonstrated through personal projects, coursework, hackathons, open-source contributions, or other work completed outside the core curriculum.
• A strong desire to learn, experiment with new tools and technologies, and continuously evolve as a software engineer.
• Analytical and problem-solving skills, including the ability to understand technical requirements and translate them into effective, maintainable solutions.
• Clear and confident communication skills, with a willingness to collaborate in a close-knit, agile, team-oriented environment.
• Any prior exposure to software engineering through internships, placements, part-time roles, coding competitions, research projects, or publications is considered a plus, but not required.
