- Be able to recognise and solve problems such as inconsistencies and missing or incorrect information.
- Be able to produce, follow, and update plans and timelines, accurately reporting progress and any problems to the project manager.
We are open-minded about degree subject areas as we have found strong candidates from a variety of backgrounds, including:
- Comparative linguistics.
- Computer science.
- Electronic engineering.
- English.
- Mathematics.
- Physics.
- Software engineering.
