Graduate Data Engineer

Type: Graduate
Region: Yorkshire and The Humber

Rewarding job for Maths or Sciences graduate in data engineering.

Are you a detail-person with an aptitude for numbers? Maybe testing theories and measuring results are your thing. If so, there’s an exciting career in data engineering ready for you at Bluesmith – with technical challenges and perks to match.

Who we are

We’re a modestly-sized, thriving Yorkshire IT company called Bluesmith. We build data warehouses and applications for clients like Direct Line, Virgin Media and The Co-op.

What’s on offer

We’ll teach you everything about systems design, development and testing the Bluesmith way: all at your own pace, using exercises from real-world projects. You’ll get a friendly progress mentor too. And at the end of your award-winning training, we’ll give you a full-time job with a share of our profits plus generous holidays.

What the job’s like

One day you might optimise a parallel data-load process, the next combine heterogeneous datasets to reveal insight our clients never knew existed. We offer variety and there are no pigeon-holes at Bluesmith. Our specialists form agile teams where they’re lead analyst in one project, and data architect in another.

Why choose Bluesmith

We invest in the most talented people in our industry, uniting them behind a philosophy that creates high-performing, highly cohesive teams. We devote ourselves to nurturing individuals like you, and the results we know you’re capable of.

What it takes to get the job

We need capable people who can get to grips with a problem quickly, so technical focus and enthusiasm are crucial. You’ll have basic programming skills, as well as an analytical outlook and a willingness to learn. If you enjoyed logic or quants, and suspect that an ordinary research career won’t make the most of your talents, then you’re a perfect fit.

If you crave a fascinating job, surrounded by people you respect and who respect you, you’ll fit right in here at Bluesmith.
