You'll have the opportunity to work across Software Engineering (Full Stack - Python, C#, C++, Golang, Rust, Java, Typescript), Data Engineering, AI/ML Engineering, Test Automation and/or DevOps.

They’re hiring for, and value, people who:

• Enjoy working on challenging systems
• Truly understand problem-solving, from first principles
• Are adaptable and articulate/able to communicate internally as well as externally

Requirements:

• 2:1 or 1st Class bachelors degree from a leading university in a STEM subject
• Exposure to software, data, AI/ML, test automation or DevOps engineering via placement year or 6 months+ work experience
• Eligibility to obtain security clearance
