You would be joining our team of eleven in-house developers. Day to day work will involve working with our teams of statistical researchers and product owners to create, maintain and optimise code written mostly in R and C++, but also in C#, that runs as part of our mathematical models. You’ll initially be working under the guidance of more senior developers and will continually be encouraged to take ownership of your work as your skills progress.

As you will be working with sports data, an interest in this field is beneficial, however you don't have to be a football fanatic or a cricket specialist to join our team. There's also so much more to us than sport, as a company we’re passionate about social responsibility, sustainability, and employee well‑being.

We are one of the largest commercial statistical research teams in Europe and a leader in the field of the application of statistical modelling in sports. We maintain statistical and mathematical models to predict sporting outcomes with unparalleled accuracy.

We work using a flexible hybrid model. For this role we require the successful candidate to be in the office three days a week and to start their working days by 10am, however, outside of this, we are keen to work with you to find a working pattern that is beneficial for both you and us. We are ideally looking for someone who is able to work full time (40 hours), however we can consider part‑time (minimum of 4 days a week).

• Be recently-graduated or due to graduate this year with qualifications covering maths or a maths‑related discipline as well as software engineering.
• High integrity and comfortable with handling sensitive information (previous experience this desirable).
• Experience with understanding statistics and statistical models.
• A genuine curiosity and eagerness to learn new technologies and approaches. If the successful candidate does not have C++ experience we will need them to learn this and provide time and support to do this in the role.
• A can‑do attitude, passion for problem‑solving and a knack for finding elegant solutions.
• Beneficial skills: C++, R, C#, SQL.

The recruitment process involves an online programming test, an initial video interview, a workshop‑style part‑day of interviews in person at our Exeter office, and a work trial.

We offer great benefits and facilities in our office at Oxygen House, including free plant‑based meals, unlimited drinks, gym, activities and sports classes, social and charity events, and more, while also extending the flexibility of working from home.

Our benefits include:

• Family and Finance Benefits – Enhanced parental leave, contributory pension (matched up to 5%), group life assurance, employee assistance programme.
• Health Benefits – Private medical insurance, private dental insurance, virtual GP, eye care vouchers, flu vaccinations.
• Green Benefits – Green travel incentive, cycle to work scheme.
• Annual Leave – 25 days, rising to 30 days after 5 years’ service, plus 5 additional flex days.
