Software Developer
What the role involves
Software developers & engineers are responsible for the complete life cycle of a software product - from research and design, to implementation, training and support. As a software developer in IBM you will work in the heart of IBM’s software innovation and play a key role in many world-shaping, cutting-edge technologies.
You will initially be allocated to one particular product area or job role. Throughout your first 2 years with us, you will then be rotated through other product areas or roles thus giving you an amazing opportunity to enhance your experience, network and product knowledge. The rotational element of these opportunities means you will gain a deep understanding of the overall life cycle of a software product and the different areas of work associated with this.
You will be encouraged to have contact with IBM customers, onsite and elsewhere, to understand the needs of our clients better—so that our software and solutions help to solve their business needs.
