Want to define The Next Reality?
Stand on the shoulders of the giants who’ve achieved some of the world’s biggest technological breakthroughs as a Developer Analyst this summer. At Barclays, we know technology is crucial to our success, so we foster a culture where innovation thrives. It’s why we invest as much – if not more – in technology than the world’s leading tech companies. It’s why we’ll invest so much in you if you join our award-winning team.
Real responsibility, right away
As a Developer, you’ll be the brains behind the design, installation, testing and maintenance of existing and new systems. This is more than playing around with code; you will be playing a critical role in finding innovative solutions to complex problems, for our clients and customers daily.
You’ll develop a solid understanding of the global markets and finance and make an impact right away. You’ll work in a varied and dynamic technical environment that includes Windows, Unix, C++, Java, C#, NoSql, MongoDB, Linux, Python, Hadoop, scripting languages, grid computing and real-time systems. You may:
- design and innovate products using the newest technologies
- provide an intelligence-led approach to cyber security
- develop intuitive user interfaces for applications
- optimise systems and applications
- analyse code to improve processes
- write scripts for data pulls and analysis
- work with business areas to understand and meet their needs.
A place where you can thrive
At Barclays, you’ll be surrounded by people who will help you achieve your ambitions. Our collaborative, supportive environment gives you the chance to build solid relationships with senior leaders and peers alike. During the programme, you’ll also:
- participate in formal and informal training
- connect with junior and senior mentors
- attend dedicated networking sessions and other programme events
- receive detailed performance feedback
- give back to the community through volunteer events.
And if you really impress us, this could be the beginning of an incredible career. We invite top-performing, eligible Developer Summer Analysts to join us as Full-time Developer Analysts after graduation.
To be considered for this programme, you must:
- currently be pursuing an undergraduate degree with anticipated graduation year 2023.
Ideally, you would also have:
- passionate about enhancing the lives of our clients and customers from the get-go.
