Come be a part of our professional, collaborative, and fun work environment, where everyone gets to make a difference. We’re looking for ambitious and enthusiastic individuals that have recently graduated in Computing Engineering or similar and are looking to start their career as Java Developers.
As a Java Developer, you will be part of a cross-functional development team using agile methodologies. Here at Merkle Barcelona, we take agile very seriously: we started to work using Scrum 6 years ago so we have plenty of experience implementing it with excellent results
So not only you will learn programming best practise but also will learn agile methodologies and the values and behaviours needed to create high performance teams.
As part of a development team, you will also be responsible for making sure that all software that our projects deliver is of the highest possible quality, that includes interaction with senior developers, QA and designers
As part of our Java Graduate Scheme, we’ll give you all the training and mentoring needed to become a full-stack Java Developer, learning both frontend and backend technologies. We’ll do this using both formal and on-the-job training, shadowing other Developers working on a variety of projects. The aim is before two years to become a fully-fledged Full stack Java Consultant, but chances are you achieve this much sooner. Full support and guidance are given by your line manager and our HR team.
As a Java trainee you will:
- Be part of a Scrum development team in Barcelona, so you will not only learn about Scrum framework but also the behaviours and values that make a great team
- Work with senior developers, so you will learn a lot!
- Be responsible to develop software (both backend and frontend)
- Interact with QA in the teams to make sure everybody understands what we have to deliver and that all new functionality is covered with tests
