We are recruiting for a graduate software engineer.
Tasks and Qualifications
One of the main features that differentiates our graduate entry from other programmes is that we welcome applicants with any kind of technical background, not just those with software-focused degrees.
Everything needed for a job at DAI is taught from scratch. We encourage applications from graduates with any technical degree, including physics, maths, chemistry, engineering, biological sciences, as well as computer science and software engineering.
DAI is a fully owned division of Dematic, an intralogistics innovator that designs, builds and supports intelligent, automated solutions for manufacturing, warehouse and distribution environments for customers that are powering the future of commerce.
With engineering centres, manufacturing facilities and service centres located in more than 25 countries, Dematic’s global network of 8,000 employees have helped achieve more than 6,000 worldwide customer installations for some of the world’s leading brands. Headquartered in Atlanta, Dematic is a member of KION Group, a global leader in industrial trucks, supply chain solutions and related services, and a leading provider of warehouse automation.
On our Graduate Development Programme, you will be given the opportunity to work on a variety of innovative and challenging projects across different industry sectors, from retail and healthcare through to energy and infrastructure. Our software engineers have the opportunity to work with a huge range of technologies, and almost immediately with customers facing roles. In doing so, they gain in-depth experience of the technology involved and its deployment in real operational environments.
Our engineers are flexible, open to new challenges, technically proficient and have a ‘can do’ attitude. The ability to interact effectively with people (customers and colleagues) is essential, as is being a quick and self-motivated learner. They will be given the support they need, and through our flat organisation will immediately have exposure to Senior Staff.
What you'll do
Some, but not all duties included below:
Being involved in work-shops and meetings to ensure project designs meet the business requirements of the customer. Implementing and testing implementations of our Matflo software, in the context of project delivery. Commissioning new project deliverables on-site to ensure they’re correctly integrated with other tools used by the customer to meet their business needs. Providing post-delivery support to our customers, as well as extending previously delivered systems through on-going programmes of work. Coding in ‘C’ on Linux
Those who have shown themselves able will quickly get real responsibility in the delivery of important projects.
The role will be based at our Manchester office, but will involve the need to travel to our other offices and to end customer sites in the UK and overseas.
