Our group handles test planning, design, and testing for products across sectors, which includes building custom automation tools (primarily in Python) and developing continuous integration and deployment pipelines.  

You will have the opportunity to work on ground-breaking wireless designs, for example:  

Ocado Smart Platform, transforming online grocery across the world  Iridium Extreme satellite phone, the first truly global 'push-to-talk' mobile communications system  What you'll be doing   

With lots of support from our collaborative team, you'll be involved in: 

Scoping and designing test activities, often for multiple projects at a time.  Creating test scripts, assisting with the development of bespoke test harnesses, and maintaining DevOps environments.  Delivering high-quality code that meets our internal standards.  Completing project tasks within the timelines and budgets set by project managers.  

 As an intern you will be supported with specific training and mentoring and as your experience develops, you will have the opportunity take on further responsibilities.

We're looking for applicants who meet the following requirements: 

Are currently pursuing a degree in a relevant field such as Engineering, Computer Science, Mathematics, or Physics. Are eligible to undertake a 12-month industrial placement as part of their course. Have an interest in scripting languages, with some experience using Python. Demonstrate good communication skills, an inquisitive nature, attention to detail, and a keen interest in technology. 

In addition, experience in any of the following areas would be advantageous (though not essential): 

Wireless communication systems. Windows or Linux programming. Other programming languages such as C, C++, or Java. 

Please ensure your CV includes your A Level (or equivalent) subjects and grades, as well as any relevant university modules.
