As a recent/upcoming graduate who studied software development in a Computer Science curriculum, you will enhance your skills working on one of our development teams creating safety critical systems.
The role
These safety critical systems will primarily involve embedded software. If you have ever flown on a commercial airliner, there is a lot of our embedded software keeping you safe. This is your opportunity to get involved with all aspects of the full Software Development Life Cycle. Unlike most companies, we do not have permanent teams. We put together teams to do a specific project and when that project is done you will work on a new project that could be very different from the project you just completed. So, if you like a lot of diversity and learning new skills, we are the company for you. Almost all of the work is done in our office in Cardiff Wales and there is very little travel involved with these development efforts. Our company emphasizes a great work and personal life balance.
Job requirements
- Bachelors or advanced degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Computer Systems Engineering or similar software development curriculum
- At least one strong Object Oriented Language (C++, C#, Python, Java, etc.) and academic exposure to software development methodologies (Waterfall, Agile, etc.)
- Embedded software experience is desired but not required
- Prior internship is highly desirable but not required
- Highly motivated and a self-starting attitude
- Must have already graduated or be graduating within the next month
Why work with those of us at Performance Software/Auvation? Why start your career with us?
Our mission
Your success. How, you might ask? … By providing a company culture dedicated to a sensible work/life balance by hiring carefully selected team players with whom you will work; by encouraging each other to produce the best embedded software for safety critical systems in the country; by having “raving fans” (customers who come back to us regularly because we get it done right and on time).
We’re a medium-sized company that’s growing rapidly, but which maintains that small company feel. At Auvation/Performance, you’re not just a name & face or locked onto a fixed team maintaining legacy systems; instead, you’ll be working on a wide variety of projects using the full gamut of advanced software development technologies.
We provide what great talent wants and deserves!
