Technical Graduate

As a CGI Technical Graduate you’ll be trusted with responsibility from the start. Whether you’re developing full‑stack applications, engineering data pipelines, designing cloud infrastructures, or analysing data for insights, your work will contribute directly to impactful projects across multiple industries. You’ll have the opportunity to work on complex software systems, drive digital transformation, and implement cutting‑edge technologies that make a real difference.

In this role, you’ll apply your STEM expertise to projects that keep the UK and its global partners secure.

• Design, develop, and test technical solutions for live projects.
• Collaborate with cross‑functional teams to solve complex real‑world challenges.
• Explore and apply emerging technologies in areas such as cyber, cloud, space, and mission systems.
• Support secure systems that underpin the UK’s national infrastructure.
• Innovate alongside other graduates, taking part in early careers initiatives that go beyond your day‑to‑day role.

• Strong academic background in STEM, a 2:2 degree in computer science, engineering, physics, maths, or a related STEM field (some roles may require a 2:1).
• Curiosity to explore new ideas and flexibility to take on diverse projects across the UK.
• Passion for technology and innovation, with a problem‑solving mindset.
• Flexibility to travel and work on projects across the UK.
