Working for us
System Simulation is looking for keen and enthusiastic people to join our team in Covent Garden, London. We have a world-renowned set of software products used by some of the most prestigious image libraries, museums, publishers, and broadcasters in the world. We are a technology-led company celebrating an incredible 40 years in the business. We do interesting and challenging work and we would like you to join us and help keep our technology in the lead. You will work mostly on real projects involving real customers who you will get to meet and visit. You will have the opportunity to develop System Simulation's core software by applying your inspirational ideas and your brilliant code.
We need developers. You need to be a keen, and enthusiastic computing graduate with a passion for getting computers to do things. We don't have a pile of standard technologies which you need to tick off, but you'll be seriously good in a couple of programming languages, you'll have done some neat web stuff and you'll know some Javascript (and C and C++ won't hurt). We work in a mixed environment, mostly Linux and Microsoft, and increasingly with mobile platforms.
We are looking for a back-end Drupal developer to work on the DECIPHER project http://decipher-research.eu/ You will be helping to build the user-facing component, based on Drupal, interoperating with powerful content aggregation, semantic web and text-mining web services. You'll need to be able to design and build Drupal modules to deliver these services to the front-end. You will be working with a mixed group of developers working on the Drupal components and the components you'll be interfacing with. The project is being run by teams in Dublin, Florence, London, Milton Keynes and Brno. You'll be based with us in Covent Garden and there will be the opportunity to travel to the other partners. As well as your contribution to DECIPHER, we are looking for someone with a touch of Drupal evangelism who'd take a look at our other web work and consider what role Drupal could play in our future developments. We need people who can help run projects: administration, account management, project management, marketing, and so on. To do this you don't need to be a techie, however, if you can combine these with technical developer skills to take a project leader role, managing other developers and dealing directly with customers and negotiating, so much the better. We need people who have a nose for systems administration in a mixed environment. Experience of running a network of Linux or Windows boxes or web hosting would go down well. Again, if you can combine this with skills as a developer, then that's really what we're looking for. System Simulation has always welcomed employees from diverse backgrounds and with wide interests. We strive to be a good, equal opportunities employer. So - get in touch - Covent Garden is a great place to work and System Simulation will allow your skills and great ideas to flourish.
