Software Developers at IBM are the backbone of our strategic initiatives to design, code, test, and provide industry-leading solutions that make the world run today - planes and trains take off on time, bank transactions complete in the blink of an eye and the world remains safe because of the work our software developers do. Whether you are working on projects internally or for a client, software development is critical to the success of IBM and our clients worldwide. At IBM, you will use the latest software development tools, techniques and approaches and work with leading minds in the industry to build solutions you can be proud of.

Your Role and Responsibilities
Are you a Graduate Software Engineer who wants to be involved with cutting-edge Data, Machine Learning (ML), and Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies and techniques to produce innovative products with real-world impact in the Healthcare sector ? If so, please read on.

Watson Health are expanding our team in Dublin. We are making a major investment in building a new green-field leading-edge ML and Data Platform to produce, serve, and operate innovative Health Care ML and Analytics models. The new platform is based on the Azure cloud platform.

We are a multidisciplinary team of data engineers, machine learning engineers, data scientists, designers, and business analysts. We work in python with a range of AI and Machine Learning approaches from Forecasting and Predictive Analytics to Natural Language Processing (NLP).
Our backend technology stack includes Python (as our main language), Java, Kubernetes, and a variety of storage technologies (Object Storage, RDBMS, Document, Graph). The CI/CD tool chain that we use includes GitHub, GH Actions, ZenHub, Gradle, Helm, Azure Pipelines, Argo and Artifactory.

We are looking for a creative, energetic Junior Software Engineer who has good knowledge of the Python ecosystem, and who enjoys working as part of a collaborative, multidisciplinary team using agile approaches.
Additionally, if you have developed and deployed cloud-based data pipelines and microservices with some of the backend technologies in our stack, and/or if you have developed models with some of the ML and Analytics technologies that we use, this would be extremely beneficial.

Our current work environment is a hybrid model. We work remotely, meeting in the Dublin office as needed. Desks are also available on a more frequent basis for those who prefer to work in an office environment more regularly.

We work in a fast-moving area, with a wide range of technologies, so we very much support a learning environment and culture. We look for people who enjoy learning about and sharing new technologies and techniques, and their application to real-world challenges in the Healthcare sector.

If this sounds like you, and you would like to find out more, then please send us your resume – we look forward to hearing from you.
