Graduate Data Engineer

Maths, Data, Analytics, Statistics, Sciences.

Turn your love of numbers and patterns into a career in data.

Do you enjoy testing ideas, spotting patterns and working out what the evidence really says? Have you got some basic programming skills, or want to build on them? Join our graduate programme and learn to turn data into insight that clients act on.

Who we are

Bluesmith is a thriving, modestly-sized Yorkshire IT company. We build data warehouses and applications for clients like Yorkshire Water, Skipton Building Society and the NHS.

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. At the end of your training, we’ll offer you a full-time job with a share of the company’s profits.

What the job’s like

One day you might optimise a data-load process, the next combine very different datasets to reveal insight our clients never knew existed. There are no pigeon-holes at Bluesmith, our specialists form agile teams where you can be lead developer in one project, and analyst in another. You will never be moved into a new role without support from colleagues who have done it before.

Why choose Bluesmith

We're a team that learns and grows together. Everyone shares what they know, asks questions freely and helps each other do their best work. We build teams from within and most of our current seniors joined us as graduates. The systems and data you help build are used every day by organisations across Yorkshire and beyond, so you'll see the difference your work makes.

What it takes to get the job

  • A degree in maths, statistics, a science or a related subject
  • Basic programming skills (in any language)
  • An interest in how things work and a willingness to learn

If you enjoy logic, statistics or programming work and want to see it make a practical difference, we'd love to hear from you. You don't need to tick every box to apply.

Can I use AI to apply?

We ask candidates to take a similar approach. Limited use of AI, such as using it to proofread or check grammar on a CV, is acceptable. However, we do not accept AI being used to write application materials, including CVs or cover letters, or to assist during video interviews and tests. Any such use could result in your application being rejected.
