Software Engineer - Development Placement

Our engineers come from all walks of life

We’ve learned that you don’t have to have a 1st class degree in Computer Science to be a great developer. In our team we have a wide range of backgrounds, from degree apprentices who we’re taking on the journey, to STEM grads - and of course CS grads. As long as you’re ready to learn new things and have a passion for development, we’d love to meet you.

We have an open and friendly working environment

We encourage people to get involved in all aspects of the business. We regularly host learning lunch sessions to listen to new ideas and present new tech, both related to work and un-related. All ideas are good ideas and there are regular forums to put forward and discuss ideas for the product and about the way we work.

The development team is divided into small, interdisciplinary teams

We have around 20 people in the core development team out of roughly 100 people and we have big goals. There are many interesting challenges ahead as we strive to keep our lead at the front of the market. As an engineer at Lighthouse you will be able to work across the entire stack and have access to work directly with anybody in the company. This enables strong knowledge share so you’ll learn about how the product is used day to day and the impact it has on businesses.

You’ll get to work with technologies like

  • .NET Core to write our application code
  • React to build our beautiful front end
  • Backbone to model our front end
  • Typescript – our front-end language of choice
  • SignalR for real time communication with external measuring equipment
  • Entity Framework for building the interface to our data
  • SQL Server
