Gearset: Graduate Software Engineer Opportunity
Gearset is the leading DevOps platform for Salesforce - our users can build and manage many aspects of their Salesforce development from within Gearset, from complex CI/CD pipelines to disaster recovery.
The Gearset platform is a standalone tool that sits outside of the Salesforce platform, integrating via public APIs only. So while our engineering team doesn't develop within the Salesforce environment, our users do. So we work closely with those domain experts to build novel solutions to the unique challenges they face, enabling them to make their Salesforce changes quickly and safely.
We live and breathe this approach ourselves: we release new versions of Gearset multiple times a day and we continually invest in improving our own observability and infrastructure tools. This means we can identify and react to issues quickly and delight our users by getting improvements to them as fast as possible.
As a product-driven company founded by engineers, we know the value of a great engineering culture, teamwork, and tight feedback loops. We’re confident in our product, market potential, and we have big plans for the future.
Please note - this role will start in September 2025
What’s the Opportunity for a Graduate Software Engineer at Gearset?
Our small engineering teams start from a few core principles but evolve over time. They all work a little bit differently, depending on their preferences and the problem they're working on. You’ll impact what we build, as well as how we build it.
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.
