An exceptional opportunity for a junior Entry Level Software Developer to shape the future of Technology in Leeds.
Leeds has quietly become one of the UK's strongest tech hubs outside London, and the demand for grounded, curious junior developers hasn't slowed down. This role sits inside an established SME that's still growing, building software that solves real problems rather than chasing trends. You'll join a technology team that values people who ask good questions over people who pretend to know everything.
Here’s what you’ll be doing:
Write, test and debug code across live projects, working alongside senior developers who’ll actually explain their reasoning
Fix bugs and contribute to feature builds under proper code review, not just busywork
Take part in daily stand-ups and sprint planning, learning how a technology team actually ships software
Document your code properly. Future you will thank present you
Support testing and QA processes to catch issues before customers do
Pick up new frameworks and tools as the team's tech stack evolves
Here are the skills you’ll need:
A relevant degree, bootcamp certificate, or demonstrable self-taught projects. We care more about what you can build than the paper
Genuine curiosity about how things work under the hood
Comfortable asking for help early rather than struggling silently for three days
Basic understanding of version control (Git)
Good written communication. You’ll be explaining technical things to non-technical people more than you’d think
Key perks and benefits:
£24,500 to £29,500 depending on experience
Hybrid working, with real flexibility rather than a token gesture
Private medical insurance and pension contribution
Bonus scheme tied to company and individual performance
Generous annual leave, plus structured support for your professional development
Why pursue a career in Technology?
Technology doesn't stand still, and neither does the pay ceiling for people who keep learning. Leeds offers a genuinely dense cluster of tech employers, so the skills you build in this Entry Level Software Developer role travel well if you ever want to move on. Few sectors reward steady improvement as visibly and as quickly as this one.
