Linea Research are offering a unique opportunity for a student to join our Applications Software Development team for their placement year. This is a hands-on programming position and would suit students with a passion for problem solving who are looking to enhance their skills from within a team of experienced professionals.
Projects in the Software Department are very varied, ranging from creating new functionality in our existing products to building custom tools and utilities that support our development process. You'll be involved in exciting new product development, including projects that incorporate cutting-edge technologies which we will tailor to what best motivates you as an individual. This is a chance to work with emerging tech while learning how innovation happens in a real-world engineering environment.
This placement is designed not only to provide you with hands-on experience, but also to immerse you in our ethos of innovation and continuous learning.
We are searching for candidates who are not only passionate about technology, but also eager to make a discernible impact getting hands on to build tools and software that go into real products. If you are seeking a placement that challenges you to apply your academic knowledge creatively and practically, we'd like to hear from you.
Linea Research is a world leading designer and manufacturer of amplifiers and digital signal processors for use in professional audio. Users of our products are diverse, ranging from reference quality recording studio designers to the promoters of the world's highest profile events. We are a technology leader and received the King's award for innovation in 2023.
Doing a 12-month placement at the Focusrite Group is like becoming one of the family. A rapidly growing, global family. We’re focused on providing opportunities for everyone and anyone to enjoy creating music.
Our placements are very popular, and that’s mainly because you can really get stuck in during your year with us. We want you to help develop our products, market our brands, speak to our customers and make us better. A lot of our previous placement candidates are now full-time employees.
All placements last for 12-months. We pay you £26250 per year (£28900 for London-based roles), and you get to share some of the same benefits as our permanent employees.
Our brands, Focusrite, Focusrite Pro, Novation, Ampify, ADAM Audio, Martin Audio, Optimal Audio, Linea Research, Sequential, Oberheim, Sonnox, OutBoard and TiMax come together around a common mission to remove barriers to creativity.
We work hard. We are professional. And we play hard too. We select really, really talented and passionate people. And we absolutely love our work. So if you think you can bring something new to the mix, we look forward to hearing from you.
Please apply for as many of our placements as you wish.
