The Opportunity

Available Location: Edinburgh

Our Digital Services software development team designs, builds and maintains a diverse range of web-based applications and data solutions for internal and external clients. We support engineering and consultancy teams working across multiple disciplines within the built environment and operate across the entire software development lifecycle.

As a software developer at Arup you will work with world class professionals operating at the cutting edge of engineering, design and sustainability. Working with industry standard development technologies in a people-centred environment, you will have the opportunity to build your career as a developer within Arup's gold standard graduate programme. You will have the support and freedom to develop your career in the way you intend and will benefit from decades of collective experience.

Our technology stack is cloud native using AWS and Azure, utilising JavaScript and Python. Our frontend development uses the Angular, React and Vue.js frameworks. Our backend development is node.js or python based, following TDD patterns and microservices based architectures. You will have the opportunity to work closely with DevOps and have exposure to CI/CD patterns, Terraform, and other DevOps practices and technologies.

Our project-based business allows us the freedom to adopt new technologies and patterns when they emerge, and we have a singular focus on innovation and improvement. As such you will be a creative and curious problem solver with an ability to learn at pace. You will also be assertive in expressing your ideas and be confident in learning from your mistakes. We want all our developers to contribute to the strategic development of the team and wider business.
