Introduction

At IBM, work is more than a job – it’s a calling: Data storage is at the heart of everything we do in life. From every photo to every financial transaction, data is generated and stored somewhere in the world, be it on a customer’s own premises or in the cloud. The IBM Ceph team at IBM Hursley creates resilient, high-performance and intelligent storage software that keeps business-critical systems and data available 24/7.

As a graduate at IBM, you’ll be part of a dynamic team that develops and implements cutting-edge solutions for our clients, while also driving business growth and innovation.

Our success comes down to one thing: our people. We’re looking for people with a passion to learn and contribute to the success of the Ceph product.

You will be joining the Ceph engineering team, where you will develop your software engineering and problem-solving skills while learning new technologies and working with mentors and teams within the Storage organisation. The team has commitment to creating a diverse and inclusive workforce, where different thinking styles are valued for the strength and innovation they bring to teams.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
