Students will gain exposure to how technology products are planned, structured, tested, and improved while developing practical technical and problem-solving skills. This is an unpaid student placement and is only open to current students whose education or training course requires or formally recognises the placement as part of their course. Learning Activities Under guidance and supervision, students may: Learn how an early-stage technology concept is translated into an MVP or prototype. Explore software architecture, product requirements, user flows, and interface design. Assist with designing and developing prototype features under supervision. Learn about front-end, back-end, database, API, and authentication concepts where relevant to the project. Explore different technology stacks and evaluate their suitability for an early-stage product. Assist with testing prototype functionality and documenting bugs or usability issues. Learn how user feedback can be incorporated into product design and development. Assist with improving prototype functionality based on supervised testing. Develop basic skills in technical documentation, version control, and structured software development. Prepare a summary of technical learning, development activities, and observations. Present their prototype work and learning outcomes at the end of the placement. The placement is primarily focused on learning, training, experimentation, observation, and skills development. Students will not be responsible for client software, commercial product delivery, sales, customer acquisition, commercial negotiations, revenue generation, or maintaining an existing production system.
