Job description

Sinara is currently hiring for its 2026 intake of technical graduates in the fields of software engineering, QA and application support & DevOps. Sinara’s graduate programme has been running for many years, and our company has grown from the success of our former graduates. Whether you are a 2026 graduate or have a couple of years of work experience under your belt, we would love to hear from you.

Job description 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. 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.

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.

Why join Sinara?

We are a leading software development company that provides cutting-edge solutions for major businesses in the world of Finance.

• Two bonus schemes: profit-related bonus and service-related bonus scheme
• 25 days paid holiday plus 8 bank holidays
• Private pension and salary sacrifice option

Training

All graduate roles begin with 2-3 weeks of full-time training then we get you straight in to working on our live projects. The hands-on approach to learning the role makes it a steep learning curve but an effective one. You will get responsibility and exposure to many parts of the software development process or technical operations from early on.

Career progression

Sinara is committed to your growth and development. From day one, you will be paired with an experienced mentor in your department to guide you along your career path. As your career progresses, we will work with you to shape the scope of your role, whether that means focusing on further developing your programming, or other technical skills or shifting towards management, project management or other parts of the engineering process.
