A Bit About Us
At Gamma, we’re more than just a leader in Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS) – we’re a dynamic, forward-thinking team revolutionizing the way businesses connect and communicate. We provide voice, data, and mobile solutions to businesses across the UK, Germany, Spain, and the Benelux region, and we’re expanding rapidly to bring digital automation and Gamma-powered services to SMEs through a growing network of channel partners.
We move fast with a start-up mindset, but we have the stability of a leading European business. Our team thrives on collaboration, innovation, and the belief that diverse perspectives make us stronger. Join us, and you’ll have the opportunity to make an impact, grow your career, and be part of a company that celebrates inclusivity and fresh ideas.
About The Role
We are looking to hire a Graduate Java Developer to join our team in Newbury on a hybrid basis.
You will have the opportunity to solve complex problems as part of a team of like-minded colleagues and play a key role in helping Gamma’s product teams deliver the best possible solutions.
This exciting, challenging role offers a large scope within a small, experienced team, including some senior members who joined as graduates themselves.
A typical day would see you attend the daily stand-up, establish your priorities, then take the initiative, building solutions that meet the requirements you are given. You will enjoy tackling abstract problems while also applying a practical, delivery-focused approach. You will be trained to a high level in the programming languages you will use. This will principally be Java, but there is potential for you to be full stack working across the frontend through to database design, and general software development best practice.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
No prior experience in telecoms is required — we will teach you everything you need to know.
About You
We’re looking for:
- A good understanding of software design and data structures; experience with Java is essential.
- An understanding of the full software development lifecycle, including formal testing (unit and integration).
- Ability to learn and work with technologies and frameworks. Some exposure to Struts, Spring, JavaScript or REST APIs would be advantageous.
- The ability to demonstrate strong interest and aptitude in software development.
- This is a challenging role — we normally look for at least a 2:1 degree (or predicted) from a good university. Preferred subjects include Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science. Applications from candidates without a university degree will also be considered where strong aptitude can be demonstrated.
- Able to start soon, by early July at the latest.
It Would Be Great If You Also Had
- Some commercial experience is not essential but is desirable (second job, internships, work experience, placements etc are good examples).
- Programming experience with Python to complement your Java.
- Experience working with relational databases; SQL (Azure/Snowflake) experience is desirable.
