Entry-Level Software Application Engineer

What success looks like in this role:

We are seeking a motivated and enthusiastic Entry-Level Software Application Engineer to join our growing team, working on-site with our client in central Manchester at least two days per week. This is an excellent opportunity for recent graduates or early-career professionals to gain hands-on experience in application development and support, primarily using C# and the .NET Framework.

You’ll be part of a collaborative environment, receive mentorship from experienced professionals, and contribute to meaningful projects that make a real impact.

Key Responsibilities

As an entry-level engineer, you will:

•    Support the development and maintenance of software applications and internal projects.
•    Learn to design and implement solutions that meet business and technical requirements.
•    Assist in configuring, programming, and testing application components.
•    Help troubleshoot and resolve defects and performance issues under supervision.
•    Participate in design, coding, and testing reviews to ensure quality and consistency.
•    Collaborate with business analysts and QA teams to understand requirements and test outcomes.
•    Engage in code reviews and work closely with senior developers and architects.
•    Help maintain development, testing, and production environments.
•    Contribute to process improvement and automation initiatives.
•    Provide regular progress updates to your project lead or manager.
•    Receive structured training and mentorship to support your professional growth.

You will be successful in this role if you have:

•    A degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).
•    A foundational understanding of C# and the .NET Framework.
•    Familiarity with software development principles and lifecycle.
•    Interest in DevOps and CI/CD tools (e.g., Jenkins, Git, Nexus).
•    A willingness to learn and grow within a collaborative team environment.
•    Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
•    Good communication skills and a proactive, can-do attitude.
•    Exposure to ClearPath (COBOL on ClearPath 2200) and ePortal is a plus—but not required. Willingness to learn these technologies is essential.

This role is ideal for someone looking to build a strong foundation in software engineering while contributing to impactful projects in a supportive and dynamic environment.
