Technology Software Engineering
Our software engineers continue to lead the way, building technology that can have a real impact on our customers. Our 10-week paid programme over the summer will give you exposure to a selection of the latest technologies. It aims to equip you with the right knowledge and skills to become one of our future engineering leaders. You’ll be able to bring your knowledge and experience to life, helping us to better serve our customers. We’ll also show you how to architect some of the most complex and ambitious software systems being built. Using agile principles, you’ll learn how to protect customer data, how to automate and how to build large scale systems.
You’ll experience the breadth of software engineering with the opportunity to spend time in our front end or back end development teams. You’ll be paired with other engineers in your team and work closely with your product managers to build software for either our customers or colleagues.
A successful internship with us can guarantee your place on our Technology Software Engineering Graduate Programme when you graduate - before you’ve even started your final year of study!
Who we are looking for
We’re looking for interns with a passion for technology. It’s not vital you’re studying for a degree in computer science, but you must be able to demonstrate your ability to write quality coding. We’re looking for logical problem solvers who are keen to learn and build their skills, and who enjoy the challenge of working with something new.

Working at our Welwyn Garden City campus
Our leafy, green campus is 10 minutes' walk from the centre of Welwyn Garden City with its many shops, restaurants, pubs and sports facilities. Close to the A1, and with frequent trains running to Finsbury Park in just 20 minutes (free shuttle buses take you between the station and office), the campus is well connected to the surrounding area.
On campus, you'll find subsidised restaurants and coffee shops, as well as a Tesco Express to pick up your lunch or last-minute essentials. We also have our Heart Building, a place where colleagues can connect and come together, to unlock innovation and collaboration and a place where they can network and socialise. Plus we have an on-site Nuffield Health gym, which has state-of-the-art equipment, studios for classes, plus treatment rooms (membership costs £23.50 per month).
Your experience with us
Welcome
We’ll kick off with you spending some time learning more about our business and your programme. It’s a great opportunity for you to meet other interns and make some new connections. We’ll then introduce you to your team, so you can get to know more about your role and the area you’ll be working in.
Programme structure
You'll start off by spending some time in store, where you'll get involved in what our colleagues do everyday to serve our customers and communities. You’ll then join your team to gain real-life experience in Technology as well as network, learn and develop your skills with other interns and colleagues throughout your programme.
Where next?
Throughout your internship, you’ll be encouraged to develop skills and gain experience that will support you in your future career. You’ll also receive valuable feedback on how you’ve performed during your 10 weeks to help understand your strengths and areas to develop further.
