Software Developer Placement

Introduction:

At IBM, work is more than a job - it's a calling: To build. To design. To code. To consult. To think along with clients and sell. To make markets. To invent. To collaborate. Not just to do something better, but to attempt things you've never thought possible. Are you ready to lead in this new era of technology and solve some of the world's most challenging problems? If so, let’s talk.

Your Role and Responsibilities:

For this placement, the majority of our roles are based at our Hursley Labs Campus near Winchester, Hampshire. We have a handful of roles which may be based out of London (dependent on the team which is hiring). We do not have any other locations available for this scheme.

As a Software Developer Intern, you’ll get involved in virtually every stage of developing new solutions or supporting and improving existing ones. Using your problem-solving skills, you will work in teams alongside other developers, engineers and industry experts, providing innovative and creative solutions to a wide selection of businesses, helping to solve complex problems for our customers. We love the fresh ideas and perspectives that our interns bring to the table.

We value learning and development so you will also be encouraged to join various projects outside of your day job such as hackathons etc, to help grow your network and build your skills and experience resulting in a successful and rewarding placement year. From day 1 you will have access to a buddy to support you throughout the programme and there are also opportunities for mentorship.

IBM is a nurturing environment for you to learn in and prosper, with a career path full of rewards.

Examples of some roles which we have available are:

• Software Developer (Front End)
• Software Developer (Back End, Server Systems and Cloud-based Development)
• Software Developer (Full Stack)
• DevOps Developers
• Automation Development and Testing

What we look for:

• Some experience of one or more of the following languages (whether self-taught or through work experience): Java, Python, Javascript, C/C++, Linux
• Great attention to detail and ability to problem solve.
• Ability to collaborate well in a team environment and share your ideas
• Proficient oral and written communication skills
• Ability to take initiative
• You'll be on track for a 2:1 or above in your degree (ideally STEM, however we do consider all degree backgrounds) and be in your penultimate year of university.
• You will need to be eligible to complete a 12-month placement as part of your degree course
• Authorised to work in the UK for the duration of your placement year.

If you are excited about the thought of taking part in our Software Developer Internship, please apply without delay. The roles will not be available for long! As part of the application process, completion of selection games and attendance at an Exploration Session are the next steps to joining our phenomenal team. We look forward to meeting you.
