Is it you we've been looking for?
Dorset Software is a leading provider of digital consultancy services. We deliver innovative software development programmes to a range of high-profile clients spanning multiple industries.
As a Developer you’ll be a key member of our consulting services team working on a range of assignments using all the latest tools and technologies, and assisting our high profile clients, such as Waitrose, the NHS Resolution and WorldPay.

Through practical hands-on experience and ongoing training, you’ll be continually expanding your knowledge and developing new skills.

A day in the life of you…
Once you’ve completed your initial training you’ll work either in-house or at client sites across the UK delivering exceptional service and building on your knowledge.

* Testing the software to ensure it’s working as intended
* Building a new Cloud data platform in AWS and Google Cloud
* Continuing to learn about relevant tools and technologies
