This is a predominantly remote role. Minimal in-office working time may be required when our offices re-open.

At AlphaSights, we search through more than 500 million professionals working in the world today to find the small handful of experts qualified to answer our clients' needs. They use these insights to drive amazing progress within their organizations. Our mission is to provide access to dispersed, hidden, and underutilized knowledge. We’ve made terrific progress working in this new space, but we’ve only just scratched the surface on how we can apply technology to this problem.

As a full stack engineer on our Search & Discovery team, you will enable the next generation of our discovery experience by building ambitious web applications, on the edge of what is possible. You'll work closely with users, engineers, product, and designers to arrive at the best solution, immediately see the impact of your work, and get feedback directly from users. We're looking for people who are interested in building software systems to an incredibly high standard, comfortable working across multiple languages, and learning new technologies as needed.

You will:

Write high quality code in both a high level backend language (Kotlin, Ruby, etc) and modern front end framework (React)
Work with a team of full stack and front end engineers to build our next generation search experience
Be responsible for the design and implementation of one or more technical areas

You might be a fit if you:

Have 3+ years of industry experience
Enjoy working in a collaborative environment
Demonstrate a solid understanding of OO principles

Bonus points if you:

Enjoy SQL database optimisation
Possess strong architectural experience
Have a Computer Science degree (or equivalent)
Possess in depth knowledge of the JVM

We believe a broad spectrum of experience provides a great perspective on solving problems in new and innovative ways. If your background doesn't check all the boxes above, but you are passionate about front end engineering, we’d still love to hear from you.
