Position Description:

At CGI, our Full Stack Software Engineers deliver impactful, end-to-end solutions that enable organisations to innovate, scale, and succeed in a digital-first world. As we grow our engineering capability across Scotland and Northern Ireland, you’ll help shape modern digital services, combining front-end creativity with back-end engineering excellence to deliver real business value.
