Graduate roles at Sinara
We are recruiting for three distinct graduate roles:
- Graduate Software Engineer
- Graduate Quality Assurance Engineer
- Graduate Support Engineer
Read more below to learn more about our different graduate roles and to understand which suits your interests and aptitudes best.
1. Graduate Software Engineer
You will join our Software Engineering team, our largest team in the company where you will begin on a career trajectory that could see you reaching Principal or even Head of Software Development.
About The Role
After initial training your first project may involve working on applications such as trading lifecycle systems, options pricing algorithms, or inventory management applications. In most projects, you will work across the full .NET/Vue.js tech stack, from the web or desktop front-ends, to back-end algorithms, including work with communications, databases and cloud deployments. The work is often technically challenging and will certainly help to accelerate your growth.
Working with Sinara, you will have the opportunity to develop your skills whilst working on an active project and make a meaningful impact. You will get the chance to work in teams committed to using the best programming techniques and share information and your own ideas with colleagues and even clients of both a technical and non-technical background.
About You
You are a recent graduate with a 2:1 or above in a Computer Science or any other STEM degree, or an early-career developer looking for a new challenge. You are passionate about code, have a desire to learn new technical skills and enjoy solving all kinds of problems.
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.
You demonstrate creative thinking and attention to detail in order to design solutions to technical challenges. You are able to think beyond just what is stated in requirements to achieve quality, robust solutions.
If you are excited by the idea of building great software and willing to learn, then this role is perfect for you.
No previous financial knowledge? No problem! You will learn everything you need on the job.
Career progression in Software Engineering
As your career progresses, we will work with you to shape the scope of your role, whether that means focusing on programming, or shifting towards other parts of the engineering process such as business analysis, project management, or a balance somewhere in between. Some may develop an interest in team and people management and we can help you develop your role to incorporate this too.
We allow staff to engage in projects into new and emerging technologies as well as undertake training that will enhance their skills.
2. Graduate Quality Assurance Engineer
About The Role
You will join our dedicated QA team, where you will be working closely with our software engineers to help ensure our software is robust, reliable, user-friendly, and ready for release. You will design and execute test cases, identify defects, investigate issues, and contribute to improving our testing processes. This is an excellent opportunity to gain hands-on experience across the full software development lifecycle in a collaborative company where your input will make a real impact. You may even have the opportunity to work directly with clients when opportunities arise.
About You
This role would suit a curious, analytical problem-solver who enjoys fully understanding how systems work and identifying ways to improve them. We are looking for graduates with a 2:1 degree in Computer Science, or any other STEM subject. An interest in software quality, strong attention to detail, good communication skills, and a willingness to learn are more important than previous commercial experience. Any exposure to software testing, programming, automation tools would be an advantage.
3. Graduate Support Engineer
About The Role
The role is an interesting mix of DevOps engineering work on projects within Tech Ops team and providing technical support for our Sinara-built applications; maintaining our mission-critical applications, delivering application management support and providing technical support for Sinara software applications to a variety of customers.

About You

We want people who are naturally curious about systems and technologies and thrive on problem solving. You should be proactive, self-driven, capable of independent initiative, and consistently consider the broader context and potential ramifications of the issues at hand.
