Role
Who you are
- We're looking for an engineer with strong product instincts who enjoys collaborative problem-solving and values delivering meaningful impact over perfection
- If you're motivated by building thoughtful user experiences and improving systems over time, we'd love to hear from you
- Has strong commercial experience with VueJS (or equivalent) and TypeScript, and is comfortable working across backend services in Java (Spring Boot) and/or Python, building complex applications that scale
- Can lead technical delivery of large features or epics end-to-end across the stack, with cross-functional squad collaboration
- Works AI-natively, including using AI coding assistants and agentic tools as part of their everyday development practice
- Demonstrates strong architectural thinking across component design, service design, state management, performance, and scalability
- Is comfortable with ambiguity. You don’t wait for perfect briefs, when requirements are unclear, you’ll get to the bottom of them and propose the approach you think is right
- Balances pragmatism with engineering quality
- Brings a product mindset, focusing on user outcomes and business impact over technical elegance
- Has a growth mindset, actively seeks feedback, challenges assumptions, and continuously improves both systems and ways of working
- Has thrived in cross-functional product squads, balancing engineering, product, and design perspectives
- Communicates effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders, making complex decisions accessible and building alignment
- We value diverse experiences and perspectives, especially in this age of non-linear careers. We encourage you to apply even if you don't fit all the criteria above, especially if you're energised by embracing the future and building impactful AI-driven user experiences!
Desirable
- Experience building conversational UIs or real-time streaming interfaces
- Experience building with LLM-powered applications or AI product features
What the job involves
- Senior Software Engineer at Attest: build AI-powered consumer insight products with Vue, TypeScript, Java and Python, shaping user experiences and mentoring in a collaborative hybrid team
- As a Senior Software Engineer on the Measure squad, you'll work on complex challenges spanning frontend engineering, backend services, and data visualisation, shaping how leading brands make faster and more confident decisions
- This isn't just about shipping features. You'll shape technical direction within your squad, contribute scalable patterns across the stack, and mentor engineers while working cross-functionally with Product, Design, and Data Science
- This is a full stack role with a leaning towards frontend
- Our frontend stack includes VueJS, TypeScript, and OpenAPI; our backend stack is primarily Java (Spring Boot) and Python, with some legacy Go
- We're constantly evolving how we build and deliver software, and we're increasingly looking for engineers who work in an AI-native way
- What this means to us is using AI coding assistants and agentic workflows as part of their everyday development practice
- Lead high-impact technical initiatives: Own the design and delivery of complex features across the Measure product, from survey creation and fielding to insights visualisation, spanning frontend and backend
- Shape products from discovery to delivery: Partner closely with Product and Design during discovery, translating evolving requirements into pragmatic technical solutions that solve real user problems
- Extend the Measure experience end-to-end: Create robust, scalable systems using VueJS and TypeScript on the frontend, and Java (Spring Boot) or Python services on the backend, that handle streaming responses, dynamic visualisations, and complex state management
- Integrate seamlessly: Use OpenAPI contracts to build reliable integrations across survey-building, audience, and insights services — including where Compass (https://www.askattest.com/compass) powers AI-assisted survey creation and analysis — handling real-time data streams and failure states robustly
- Balance speed with sustainability: Ship quickly while maintaining high code quality, performance, and testability. Proactively reduce technical debt and improve system health
- Elevate the entire team: Provide thoughtful code reviews, mentor other engineers through pairing, and contribute to shared patterns and standards across the Engineering organisation
- Drive measurable outcomes: Focus on user outcomes, not just output, using data to inform iteration and improvement
- Work AI-natively: Use AI coding assistants and agentic tools as a core part of your day-to-day workflow to build faster without sacrificing quality
- You'll have autonomy in technical decisions, support for growth, and the opportunity to influence how users interact with AI-powered survey creation and insights across the Measure product
Application process
- We usually respond within a week
Salary benchmarks
Our take
Businesses are constantly seeking new ways to understand trends, grow in new markets, and explore innovations. However 99% of the questions businesses would love to explore go unanswered.
The steps required to launch a survey have typically been cumbersome. Attest have built a platform that is self-serve, and allows companies to ask targeted questions from a wide range of audiences.
The traditional research market is worth $76 billion, and yet it only serves a fraction of those who would benefit from fast and reliable consumer insights.
Attest is currently focused on larger customers such as Heineken, Boots, Samsung. They are also seeing demand from smaller players such as Monzo and Nutmeg, showing the size of the opportunity.
