LAS Solutions – Junior SW Commisioning Engineer

Purpose

The Junior Software Commissioning Engineer Bootcamp, delivered by Code.Hub in collaboration with LAS Solutions, is designed to equip early-career engineers with the core knowledge and practical skills required to build a solid foundation in software commissioning engineering. The program focuses on preparing participants to effectively support, test, configure, and commission software-driven industrial and technological systems in real-world environments.

Software Commissioning Engineers play a critical role in ensuring that complex systems operate reliably, efficiently, and in accordance with design specifications. As digital transformation accelerates across industries, the demand for skilled professionals who can bridge software development, system integration, and on-site deployment continues to grow rapidly. Through this bootcamp, participants will be empowered to develop technical competence, problem-solving abilities, and professional readiness, enabling them to contribute effectively to high-impact engineering projects and to pursue a dynamic and fast-growing career path.

Description

The Junior Software Commissioning Engineer Bootcamp, delivered by Code.Hub in collaboration with LAS Solutions, is a focused, practice-oriented training program designed to prepare junior-level engineers for software commissioning–related responsibilities within structured industrial and warehouse automation environments.

The program concentrates on building foundational technical competencies required to support system configuration, validation, and testing activities in software-driven systems operating on standardized platforms. The curriculum is intentionally scoped to emphasize core engineering fundamentals, aligning strictly with the requirements of junior commissioning and implementation roles.

Participants will develop working knowledge of C++ fundamentals, Oracle SQL and introductory PL/SQL concepts, and essential software engineering practices. The program further covers Linux command-line usage, basic networking concepts relevant to system connectivity and communication, and testing and troubleshooting approaches commonly applied during commissioning and integration phases.

Training is delivered through structured technical sessions, hands-on exercises, and guided practice, complemented by project-oriented activities that reinforce applied learning. Throughout the bootcamp, LAS Solutions’ subject-matter experts contribute through scheduled solution-focused talks, offering participants exposure to real project contexts, engineering workflows, and organizational expectations.

The bootcamp is positioned as a preparatory and alignment initiative, supporting role readiness and informed onboarding. Upon completion, participants will be equipped with the foundational skills required to transition into Junior Software Commissioning Engineer roles and continue their development through internal training and on-the-job learning within LAS Solutions’ operational environment.
