How Codeweavers Supports Tech Innovation

At Codeweavers, we believe in the power of technology to transform the automotive industry and improve how we search, discover, buy and sell vehicles. As National Coding Week has just come to a close, we thought it was the perfect time to reflect on how coding shapes our world and how we play a role in this exciting journey.  

What is National Coding Week?   

National Coding Week is an annual event that encourages individuals and businesses to learn new coding skills, explore the world of technology, and understand the crucial role coding plays in modern life and how it can open career paths in every field.     

Why coding matters to us   

At Codeweavers, coding is at the heart of what we do. Our solutions connect every party involved in the vehicle sales process, forging lasting connections between automotive Manufacturers, Retailers, Lenders, and Consumers. From streamlining car buying processes to developing cutting-edge finance calculators, coding enables us to solve complex challenges and deliver seamless, user-friendly experiences to our customers and theirs. 

For us, coding is about creating solutions that empower dealerships, lenders, and consumers alike. Our talented team of developers works behind the scenes to ensure that our tech is secure, scalable, and aligned with the evolving needs of the automotive world.   

How we support continuous improvement  

Codeweavers' commitment to education goes far beyond National Coding Week. We actively support our team's continuous learning and development year-round, encouraging a culture of growth and innovation.   

Ongoing learning & personal development: We believe in the importance of lifelong learning. Our team has access to various resources for skill development, including self-paced learning resources such as Pluralsight, Codecademy, The Codeweavers Academy, and the Interaction Design Foundation, to ensure that our developers are always sharpening their skills. We also encourage non-technical staff to participate in our workshops and events, supporting a more tech-savvy organisation.   

Hackathons & innovation challenges: Innovation is at the forefront of our products. We host Hackathons throughout the year, where our team comes together to solve real-world challenges through creative coding solutions. These Hackathons provide a platform for collaboration, allowing our team members to push the boundaries of their coding skills in a fun, competitive environment. It's an opportunity to step away from daily tasks, think outside the box, and come up with new ideas that often influence the direction of our products.   

Why learn to code?   

The world is becoming increasingly digital, and coding skills are no longer limited to developers. Understanding even basic coding principles can benefit professionals across various fields, whether you're in marketing, sales, finance, or operations. At Codeweavers, coding is the driving force behind the technology that connects people with the right vehicles and finance solutions. It's more than just a skill; it's a mindset of problem-solving and innovation.   

Join the movement   

As National Coding Week highlights the importance of digital skills, we invite you to explore coding, whether for the first time or to build on what you already know. At Codeweavers, we are passionate about supporting our team and the wider tech community as we navigate the ever-evolving digital world.  

Let's continue to learn, create, and innovate together. Discover our career opportunities.
