Entry Level Software Engineer Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get an entry level software engineer job?

Entry level software engineer roles typically look for demonstrated ability over years of experience. A portfolio of personal or academic projects, a completed internship, or open-source contributions gives hiring managers something concrete to evaluate. Bootcamp graduates and self-taught candidates compete well when they can show working code. Tailoring your application to the tech stack listed in each job posting also meaningfully improves your callback rate.

Which companies hire entry level software engineers?

Companies hiring entry level software engineers right now include Google, Amazon, and Amazon Web Services, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of July 2026. Hiring at this level comes from a wide range of employers, including early-stage startups building out their first engineering teams, mid-size product companies, and large enterprises with structured new grad programs.

Are there remote entry level software engineer jobs?

Yes, though remote availability at the entry level is more selective than for senior roles. About 25% of entry level software engineer openings are remote or hybrid as of July 2026, reflecting steady demand from companies comfortable onboarding junior engineers outside the office. Hybrid roles, which split time between home and a physical location, make up a meaningful share of that total.

Are these new grad software engineer jobs?

Yes, the listings here include new grad, recent graduate, and junior software engineer roles. A posting is generally new-grad friendly when it explicitly welcomes zero to two years of experience, accepts internship or academic project work in place of professional experience, or invites candidates to submit a portfolio alongside their resume. Searching for "new grad" or "junior" alongside your target role can help surface the most accessible openings.

Which industries hire the most entry level software engineers?

Entry Level software engineer roles concentrate in Technology & Software, Artificial Intelligence, and Retail, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of July 2026. These sectors tend to drive entry level hiring because they rely on continuous product development and regularly bring on junior engineers to support growing engineering teams alongside more experienced staff.
