"There's an unwritten expectation that you stay for at least two years." Two years is a decent duration. At least view this as a job to challenge yourself on delivering projects successfully, even if they're routine CRUD apps. It would be helpful for you on your third job to list your manager from this first job as a reference. Generally it's never too early to leave. But if you have a string of job hopping, some people will hold this against you, and you'll have a short list of people wanting to endorse you.
