Software developers design, write, and maintain the programs that run on computers, phones, and servers. Much of the work is reading existing code, breaking a requirement into small changes, and checking that a change behaves correctly before it reaches users.
Bachelor's degreeInformation technology, data and cybersecurity
Front-end developers build the part of a product people actually see and click. They turn designs into working interfaces, make them behave sensibly on different screens and devices, and keep them usable for people relying on assistive technology.

Back-end developers build the services, APIs, and data access layers that sit behind an application. The work centres on correctness under load: making sure requests are handled reliably, data stays consistent, and failures degrade in a controlled way.
Bachelor's degreeInformation technology, data and cybersecurity
Full-stack developers work across both the interface and the services behind it, following a feature from the screen through to the database. The breadth is the point: it suits smaller teams where one person needs to carry a change end to end.

Mobile application developers build apps for phones and tablets. Alongside writing code they deal with the constraints of the platform: limited battery and memory, patchy connectivity, permission prompts, and app store review before anything ships.

Game developers write the code that makes a game run, covering gameplay rules, graphics, physics, input, and audio. The work is highly collaborative, sitting between designers who decide how the game should feel and artists who supply what it looks like.
Bachelor's degreeInformation technology, data and cybersecurity
Test automation engineers write code whose job is to test other code. They build and maintain automated test suites and the pipelines that run them, so that a broken change is caught by a machine rather than by a user.

Data scientists use statistics and programming to answer questions that simple reporting cannot, such as predicting an outcome or estimating the effect of a change. They frame the problem, build and validate a model, and communicate how much confidence the result actually deserves.
Bachelor's degreeInformation technology, data and cybersecurity
Machine learning engineers take models out of notebooks and into production systems. The role sits between data science and software engineering: building training and serving pipelines, watching for drift once a model is live, and handling the failure modes that only appear at scale.
Bachelor's degreeInformation technology, data and cybersecurity
Embedded software developers write the code that runs inside physical products, from appliances and vehicles to medical and industrial equipment. Memory, power, and timing are tight, and testing usually means working with real hardware on a bench.
