Jaguar seeking student engineers to design software

Students will have the opportunity to design software for future Jaguar Land Rover vehicles this summer after the company said it would fast-track placement applications.

The programme is open to computer science, electronics or software engineering students at undergraduate and postgraduate level.

Successful applicants will work on the company’s ACES strategy – Autonomous, Connected, Electrified and Shared – in the Republic, the UK, and China. Postgraduate opportunities are also available in the United States.

“As the automotive industry accelerates towards autonomous driving, connectivity and electrification, there’s a greater need to find future engineers who will help design and develop the future of electrical systems,” said Jaguar.
