Graduate Software Developer in Test (Python SQL) Newcastle onsite £35k

Are you the type of engineer who enjoys understanding how complex systems work, spotting things others miss and solving difficult technical problems? Do you believe great software is built through rigorous engineering, not just writing code?

You could be progressing your career at a scaling Fintech, building sophisticated software for the investment management industry. Partnering with leading Hedge Funds and financial institutions, the company is developing technology that combines modern software engineering with complex data, analytics and financial systems.

As a Graduate Software Developer in Test, you’ll join a highly talented engineering team and learn how modern software quality is engineered into products from day one. You’ll work alongside software developers, product specialists and experienced test engineers to design automated tests, investigate complex system behaviour, analyse data, identify defects and help ensure the delivery of robust, high-quality software.

This is not a traditional manual testing role. You’ll be writing code, building automation, working with data and developing a deep understanding of software architecture, distributed systems and engineering best practices. You’ll receive hands-on mentoring from experienced technologists while taking ownership of meaningful projects from an early stage.

Location:

You’ll join colleagues in brand new Central Newcastle offices on a full-time basis (Monday to Friday), working hours 0900-1800 with some flexibility. The offices are well equipped and offer fantastic views across the City and the local countryside, many employees walk or cycle in (onsite showers available!).
