Software Engineers

This position is no longer available, but contact Granta if you have an interest in similar positions.

Granta Design leads the materials information technology market, experiencing year-on-year growth over the past 10 years with a unique product and great reputation.  NASA, Rolls Royce, Intel and many other industry leaders world-wide are using our software to go higher, lighter and greener.

New projects have created a number of outstanding opportunities in our software team. You can play a central role in the development of an integrated portfolio of products within a successful specialist software company.

What you will be doing:

You will become part of our software engineering team, which is small enough that your contribution will be important and noticed.  You will work on our flagship product—GRANTA MI—the leading system for materials information management. This includes high-end, server-based, Microsoft .Net applications, for corporate intranets and the Web; and advanced searching, document indexing and data management technologies.


About you

We are looking for a long-term team member who will share our passion to see the company fulfil its enormous potential.

You will definitely:

  • Have experience of object-oriented programming in C#
  • Have developed client-server .NET applications
  • Have worked with Microsoft .NET technologies
  • Understand relational databases and SQL, in particular SQL Server

You should also:

  • Have a first class or upper second class honours degree in computer science, engineering, science, or maths from a recognised university (or overseas equivalent)
  • Be self-motivated, technically accomplished, a team-worker, and have a customer-focus

Granta Design is successful, focused, trusted, intelligent, and a great place to work. If you're bright, enthusiastic, committed, and like the look of Granta, send us your CV/resume and a cover letter explaining what you are looking for. We are growing and new opportunities are always opening up—some of them may not even be on the website yet.
