Business and Technology Integrator
Business and Technology Integrators have a high learning agility and are great communicators, translating technical concepts to non-technical people and vice versa. They engage closely with colleagues across the company to develop a deep knowledge and understanding of their work, in order to drive tech innovation to improve the way they work and coordinate the delivery of these solutions.
Software Engineer
Software Engineers are self-starters and have a desire to experiment with new technologies. They provide the technical expertise and leadership to turn ideas and concepts into a solution. They work on projects that involve designing and building custom solutions that can transform many areas of the business from local to enterprise-wide initiatives.
An example project I started during my placement was to investigate how virtual reality and immersive environments can improve the quality of life for Alzheimer’s patients
