Junior Software Engineer

Location: Hybrid Belfast
Salary: £25,000-£32,000 + Equity

My client, who are scaling a modern, cloud-first digital platform, are looking for a Junior Product Engineer who wants to learn fast, work with a modern tech stack, and actually ship features that people use.

This is the perfect launchpad role: you'll work across the full stack, get exposure to real architecture decisions, and grow quickly in a team that genuinely invests in developing early-career engineers.

Why this role is exciting

You'll work across React, Next.js, React Native, Node.js, Python, and modern cloud services.

You won't be boxed into one area - you'll touch front-end, back-end, mobile, and data.

You'll learn how a real product is shaped: ideas, prototypes, delivery, iteration.

You'll get hands-on mentorship from engineers who actually care about your progression.

What you'll be doing

Building features across web and mobile apps

Working with APIs, databases, and cloud tooling

Pairing with experienced engineers and taking part in real product decisions

Contributing to testing, quality, and continuous improvement

Helping turn user feedback into product updates

What my client is looking for

0-2 years' experience (projects, internships, placements all count)

Genuine interest in full-stack engineering

Familiarity with at least one modern programming language

Curiosity, ambition, and a willingness to push yourself

What's on offer

£25k-£32k salary + equity

Hybrid working (Belfast)

Fast progression and hands-on learning

A collaborative team using modern engineering practices
