| Aspect | Junior Software Engineer University | Junior Software Engineer Entry-Level |
|---|---|---|
| Required Credentials | Typically a recent computer science or related degree from a university | Often a degree or equivalent experience, open to self-taught or bootcamp graduates |
| Work Environment | Internships, university projects, or entry-level positions in tech companies or startups | Entry-level roles in various industries, including tech firms, startups, or corporate IT teams |
| Employer & Industry Usage | Primarily used by companies hiring recent graduates or interns from universities | Used broadly for new hires with minimal professional experience in software development |
The main difference is that Junior Software Engineer University roles are often targeted at recent graduates with academic backgrounds, while Junior Software Engineer Entry-Level positions are open to individuals with minimal professional experience, regardless of educational background. Both roles serve as starting points for a career in software development but differ mainly in candidate background and hiring context.

About the Opportunity
Leidos is seeking a Junior Software Engineer to join a team developing, maintaining, and enhancing software systems supporting critical mission needs.

Analyze user requirements to derive software design and performance requirements.
Design and code new software or modify existing software to add new features.
Debug existing software and correct defects.
Integrate existing software into new or modified systems and operating environments.
Develop simple data queries for existing or proposed databases and data repositories.
Software Quality & Engineering Practices
Review and test software components for adherence to design requirements and document test results.
Help resolve software problem reports.
Apply software development and design methodologies appropriate to the development environment.
Provide recommendations for improving documentation and software development process standards.
Contribute to software-related system design considerations, including hardware/software tradeoffs, software reuse, COTS/GOTS alternatives, and requirements analysis from the system level to individual software components.
