Graduate Software Engineer

Graduate Software Engineer role at Theodo developing full-stack digital products for clients while gaining hands-on experience in agile software development through mentoring and live projects.

About Theodo

Theodo is an engineering & design consultancy with offices in Paris, London, New York, Casablanca and Cape Town. We build high-quality digital products for clients across industries, and we are increasingly working with enterprise organisations on complex, high-impact tech modernisation programmes - including AI-powered code modernisation.

We run lean internally: we care about process, continuous improvement, and doing things properly. Our founders have written books on the best practice for using lean to scale agile in large organisations.

The Opportunity

We're looking for a Graduate Software Engineer to join our engineering team and kick-start their career building real products for our clients. You'll be working with experienced engineers from day one, working across the stack on live projects rather than sandboxed training exercises.

• A genuine passion for technology and problem-solving

• Strong communication skills and the ability to work well in a team

• A curious, proactive mindset, comfortable asking questions and learning from feedback

• Eagerness to take ownership of tasks and grow into greater responsibility over time

• Solid foundation in at least one programming language (e.g. JavaScript, Python, Java, or C#)

• Understanding of core computer science fundamentals (data structures, algorithms, version control)

• Familiarity with Git and collaborative development workflows

• Exposure to web development, databases, or cloud platforms is a plus (through coursework, internships, or personal projects)
