Silicon Valley Internship Program

The SVIP gives newly graduating Software Engineering Students from the UK the unique experience of working with hot tech companies in Silicon Valley through a one-year internship. The aim is that through this experience, SVIP interns will bring a little of the Silicon Valley attitude back to the entrepreneurial community in the UK. SVIP interns form an integral part of the engineering teams that they work with and are paid a salary of $60,000 for the year. The SVIP helps to arrange for US work visas and provides a return flight to San Francisco, as well as accommodation for the first month.

Summer Internships, TPP, Leeds

We develop cutting-edge healthcare IT products from our base in Horsforth, just outside of Leeds. We’ve been providing a market-leading clinical system to the NHS for over fifteen years and now have over 5,000 healthcare providers and 200,000 users relying on our product on a daily basis.  We have some really exciting projects happening internationally, in countries such as India and China, and now is a really good time to join us.

TPP looks for talented graduates and postgraduates to become software developers. We recruit the best and the brightest, and we know that there will be people in your department who fit the bill. We want people who are adaptable, learn quickly, and have an aptitude and a passion for problem solving. Unusually for software development, we don’t need any coding experience; we’re happy to train people on the job. In the time I have worked here I’ve been involved in some fantastic projects – adapting our established products for use internationally, expanding our mobile apps suite and deploying our system in our first big hospital.
