Full job description

At Podfather, we believe in the potential of every team member. We build software solutions that drive real-world success for our customers, and we know that our future relies on nurturing the next generation of engineering talent.

We are looking for an enthusiastic, self-motivated Junior Software Engineer to join our supportive, hands-on development team. If you are an early-career engineer eager to build your skills, learn from senior mentors, and make a meaningful impact on a growing business, your journey starts here.

The role: learning, growing, and delivering

As a Junior Software Engineer, you will dive straight into the software engineering world by working on well-defined tasks. You won't be doing it alone, you will collaborate closely with senior engineers and our Lead Software Engineer, who will guide you every step of the way. Over time, as your confidence and codebase knowledge grow, you’ll take on increasingly complex challenges and gain greater independence.

Key responsibilities

Deliver quality code: Write clean, functional code and documentation according to Podfather’s coding standards.
Collaborative code reviews: Actively participate in the code review process, both preparing your code for deployment with the Lead Engineer and, over time, reviewing code from other teams.
Continuous learning: Expand your hands-on experience with our core tech stack (PHP, JavaScript, SQL, and Git), while gaining a deep understanding of unit testing and CI/CD pipelines.
Security mindset: Learn and implement secure coding practices, enforce access control (the principle of least privilege), manage secure patches/updates, and assist with system monitoring.
Team collaboration: Stay in regular communication with your team lead and peers, share progress updates, and flag blockers early to help the team meet its collective goals.

What we are looking for

We value passion, curiosity, and mindset just as much as your current technical ability. We are looking for someone who brings:

A Foundation in STEM subjects: For software engineers that means a good understanding of core software development principles, such as object-oriented design, SOLID principles, and coding best practices. For candidates with a mathematical background, it’s a good understanding of discrete mathematics, linear algebra, combinatorics, and a desire to learn programming.
An Insatiable Curiosity: A desire to understand how complex systems work, a proactive approach to asking questions, and a drive to expand your technical skills quickly.
Strong Communication: The ability to communicate effectively with more experienced engineers, accept feedback graciously, and collaborate openly.
A Proactive Mindset: Someone who doesn't just wait to be told what to do, but brings fresh ideas, enthusiasm, and initiative to every task.

What's in it for you?

Mentorship & career growth: Direct guidance from senior engineering talent and a structured path toward independence.
Holistic development: You won't just learn to code; you'll understand the commercial implications of your work and how it drives customer success.
Ongoing training: Full support and training in security, compliance, development best practices, and new technologies.
A positive culture: Join a team that values open, honest, and constructive feedback in a supportive environment.

Ready to start your journey with Podfather?

If you’re ready to learn fast, ask questions, and build a great career, we want to hear from you! Email us your CV and a covering letter to [email protected]. We look forward to hearing from you.

Staff benefits

Generous Holiday: 30 days holiday a year + the option to buy up to 5 extra days and additional days for each year of service (up to 10 years)

Continuous Growth: A commitment to your development through an individual training budget.

The Right Tools: High-spec workstation, multiple monitors, and your choice of operating system/kit.

Great Office Perks: A nice working environment with complimentary drinks and snacks in our Edinburgh office, strong transport links, and free parking.

Social Culture: Regular team events and social activities, including board games and online games nights.

Health & Wellbeing: Comprehensive Employee Assistance Programme which includes a 24/7 confidential helpline, remote GP and physiotherapy appointments, mental health support, lifestyle coaching, and nutritionist sessions.

Peace of Mind: Life Assurance and a company pension plan.

Extra Perks: Bike-to-work scheme and Enhanced Life Friendly Policies.
