We are looking for a Junior Developer to join the team building the cloud platform behind our connected industrial products, a production industrial-IoT system that ingests telemetry from tens of thousands of sensors in customer plants, decodes and enriches it, runs engineering calculations over the resulting time series, and serves the results to internal engineering teams and to customers.
This is a role for someone with roughly two to three years of commercial development experience who wants to go deeper. You will be writing production code within your first few weeks, but you will not be doing it alone: you will partner with senior engineers, your work will go through review, and you will be given a route into the codebase rather than a sink-or-swim start.
We care more about how you think than about how many technologies you have already used. The platform runs on a broad stack and we do not expect you to start knowing all of it. If you are solid in one or two of those areas and genuinely keen to learn the rest, we would like to hear from you.
None of these are required. Any of them would give us something to talk about.
We are hiring at this level deliberately, and we plan to invest accordingly.
You would work on a platform with a direct line to decarbonisation: the telemetry and calculations we build help industrial customers find steam leaks, cut fuel use and reduce emissions across thousands of sites. For someone early in their career it is an unusually good combination, a modern Azure estate with real scale and real customers, inside a stable FTSE 100 engineering group, on a team small enough that your work is visible and your questions get answered.

We want everyone to be able to make their difference here, so we will always consider requests for flexible working.
We know that everyone needs some extra help from time to time too, so we have introduced a range of additional benefits through our Group Inclusion Commitments. These include gender-neutral parental leave, 15 days of extra paid caregiver leave, paid time off and support for anyone experiencing pregnancy loss or domestic abuse, menopause-friendly workplace principles and more.
